2-12 Operating Your Computer
Using the Touchscreen (option)
CAUTION: Do not use a sharp object such as a ballpoint pen or pencil on the
touchscreen. Doing so may damage the touchscreen surface.
The touchscreen is a touch-sensitive device that allows you to
communicate with the computer by controlling the location of the pointer
on the screen and making selection with the buttons.
The touchscreen allows you to easily use the computer without a mouse
or touchpad.
Here are some common terms that you should know when using the
touchscreen:
Term Action
Click/Point Tap gently on the touchscreen.
Double-click Tap twice on the touchscreen rapidly.
Drag and
drop
Press lightly on the touchscreen and move your finger
until you reach your destination (drag). Finally, release
your finger (drop) when you finish dragging your selection
to the destination. The object will drop into the new
location.
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 edge of
the touchscreen and slide your finger up and down along
the edge. To move horizontally, place your finger on the
bottom edge of the touchscreen and slide your finger left
and right.
This function works only after you install the touchscreen
driver supplied with the computer and it may not work for
all applications.
