Scroll
You can scroll through information in a list or in a document by using the glide
pad. Place your finger on the right part of the glide pad and move it back and forth.
This procedure works only in some applications.
Changing the Configuration
In the Mouse Properties dialog box, you can change the configuration of the glide
pad, such as swapping left and right buttons, changing the pointer size, etc.
If you swap the left and right buttons, "tapping" on the glide pad as an
alternative method of pressing the left button will no longer function.
If you prefer to use a mouse and turn off the glide pad, you can disable
the glide pad in the Setup Utility. See also Chapter 4.

Your computer, equipped with the Windows Enhanced Keyboard, provides all the
functionality of a full-sized desktop keyboard.
