Action
Drag and
drop
Press and hold the left button, then move your finger
until you reach your destination (drag). Finally, release
the button (drop) when you finish dragging your
selection to the destination. The object will drop into
the new location.
–or–
Gently tap twice on the pad and on the second tap,
keep your finger in contact with the pad. Then, move
your finger across the pad to drag the selected
object to your destination. When you lift your finger
from the pad, the selected object will drop into place.
Scroll
To scroll is to move up and down or left and right in the
working area on the screen.
To move vertically, place your finger on the right or left
edge of the pad and slide your finger up and down
along the edge. To move horizontally, place your
finger on the top or bottom edge of the pad and slide
your finger left and right.
This function works only after you install the touchpad
driver supplied with the computer and it may not work
for all applications.
TABLE NOTE: If you swap the left and right buttons, “tapping” on the
touchpad as an alternative method of pressing the left button will no
longer be valid.
Configuring the Touchpad
You may want to configure the touchpad to suit your needs. For example,
if you are a left-handed user, you can swap the two buttons so that you
can use the right button as the left button and vice versa. You can also
change the size of the on-screen pointer, the speed of the pointer, and so
on.
To configure the touchpad, go to Control Panel  Mouse Properties.
