Using The Touchpad - AIRIS PRAXIS N1103 Manual De Usuario

GETTING STARTED

Using the TouchPad

A TouchPad pointing device comes built into your computer. It is used to control the movement
of the pointer to select items on your display panel.
The TouchPad consists of a cursor control, a left and right button, and a scroll bar. The cursor
control works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor around the display. It only
requires light pressure from the tip of your finger. The left and right buttons function the same as
mouse buttons. The actual functionality of the buttons may vary depending on the application
that is being used. Finally, the scroll bar allow you to navigate quickly through pages, without
having to use the on-screen cursor to manipulate the up and down scroll bars.
Clicking
Clicking means pushing and releasing a button. To left-click, move the cursor to the item you wish
to select, press the left button once, and then immediately release it. To right click, move the
mouse cursor to the item you wish to select, press the right button once, and then immediately
release it. You also have the option to perform the clicking operation by tapping lightly on the
TouchPad once.
Double-Clicking
Double-clicking means pushing and releasing the left button twice in rapid succession. This
procedure does not function with the right button. To double-click, move the cursor to the item
you wish to select, press the left button twice, and then immediately release it. You also have the
option to perform the double-click operation by tapping lightly on the TouchPad twice.
Dragging
Dragging means pressing and holding the left button, while moving the cursor. To drag, move the
cursor to the item you wish to move. Press and hold the left button while moving the item to its
new location and then release it. Dragging can also be done using the TouchPad. First, tap the
TouchPad twice over the item you wish to move making sure to leave your finger on the pad after
the final tap. Next, move the object to its new location by moving your finger across the TouchPad,
and then release your finger. Using the Scroll bar allows you to navigate through a document
quickly without using the window's scroll bars. This is particularly useful when you are navigat-
ing through on-line pages.
