Scrolling with the Dual Mode Pad
There are two active regions on the Dual Mode Pad that allow
you to scroll as you would with any wheel device on a mouse
or trackball.
To scroll vertically, run your finger up or down along the right
edge of the Dual Mode Pad. To scroll horizontally, run your
finger along the bottom edge of the Dual Mode Pad.
The Dual Mode Pad also supports coasting, which helps you
to scroll easily through long documents. When coasting is
enabled, scrolling continues after you lift your finger from
the Dual Mode Pad, then stops when you touch the Dual
Mode Pad surface again.
The scrolling and coasting features can be disabled or
changed in the Mouse Properties dialog box.
Using the Control buttons
When a step instructs you to click or choose an item, move
the cursor to the item, then press and release the primary
(left-hand) button. To double-click, press the primary button
twice in rapid succession. The primary button usually
corresponds to the left mouse button.
The function of the secondary (right-hand) button depends on
the program you are using. It usually corresponds to the right
mouse button. Check your program's documentation to
determine if it uses the right mouse button.
Using Tap Zones
The four corners of the Dual Mode Pad are called tap zones.
You can configure each tap zone to perform one of the
following actions when tapped:
❖
Open the Start Menu
❖
Open the current application's menu
❖
Minimize the current application
