key while pressing the numbered function key.
Numeric Keypad
The numeric keypad is embedded in the keyboard area.
The embedded keypad emulates the numeric keypad
typically found on a full-size keyboard. It is arranged
like a calculator for applications that require you to key
many numbers or for use with the Calculator in the
standard Windows Accessories.
Touchpad
The touchpad is a
p
ointing device that
p
rovides all the features
of a two-button mouse.
Its primary function is to
move the cursor around
the screen.
Using Your Touchpad
Clicking
1. First, place your fingers on the keyboard in the normal typing position. The touchpad is easily
accessible by moving either your left or right thumb off the space bar and on to the touchpad.
2. Gently move your thumb across the touchpad in the direction you want the cursor to move. The
pad detects the change in pressure and moves the cursor in the corresponding direction.
NOTE
The touchpad on your GoBook II computer is electrically sensitive to finger touch. It will
not respond if touched by anything other than your fingers, such as a stylus or pencil.
3. The touchpad offers another method of making selections in a software program. It is called
double-tapping. This function corresponds to double-clicking with a mouse. Once the cursor has
been moved to the object you want to select, lightly double-tap the pressure sensitive touchpad.
This double-tapping on the touchpad will select the desired item and prompt the software to
perform the related operation.
4. The left and right buttons located directly below the touchpad are the same in function as those on
a two-buttoned mouse. Clicking these buttons makes selections, drags objects, or performs a
variety of other functions depending on the software. To select an object, first move the pointer
over the object you want to select, and then press the left button one time. The functions of these
buttons are software specific.
