User's Manual

Here are some common terms that you should know when using the touch
screen:
 Touch
Touch the screen once with your finger to open an item or select an object.
 Touch and hold
Touch and hold your finger on an item to see a list of actions available
for that item.
 Drag
Hold your finger on an item and, without lifting the finger, move across
the screen until you reach the target position.
 Swipe or slide
Move your finger across the screen, without pausing when you first
touch it (so you don’t “drag” instead). For example, you slide the screen
up or down to scroll a list.
 Pinch
In some applications (such as Maps and Gallery), you can zoom in and out
by placing two fingers on the screen at once and pinching them together
(to zoom out) or spreading them apart (to zoom in).
Home Screen
The Home screen is your starting point to access all the features on your
device. You can have it display application icons, widgets, shortcuts, and
other features that you want. The default Home screen already contains
some application icons and widgets. At the bottom of every Home screen is
the Favorites tray.
