to exert much pressure on the pad. The glide pad will respond to a light touch from
your fingertip.
Click, Double-click, and Right-click
To click or double-click, you can use the left button just like that of a mouse.
Instead of clicking the left button, you can also just tap gently anywhere on the
rectangular pad. For right-clicking, you must use the right button.
Drag and Drop
You can move icons or windows by using “drag and drop” below:
1.
Position the pointer over the object.
2.
Press the left button; do not release it.
3.
Holding down the button, move the pointer. The object moves together with the
pointer.
4.
Release the button when the object reaches its destination.
Scroll
You can scroll through information in a list or in a document by using the glide pad.
Place your finger on the most right part of the glide pad and slide your finger up and
down. This procedure works only vertically, and in limited applications.
Changing the Configuration
In the
Mouse Properties
dialog box, you can change the configuration of the glide
pad, such as swapping left and right buttons, changing the pointer size, etc.
•
If you swap the left and right buttons, "tapping" on the glide pad as an
alternative method of pressing the left button will no longer function.
•
If you prefer to use a mouse and turn off the glide pad, you can disable
the glide pad in the Setup Utility. See also Chapter 4.
