Using Hotpads 2
Hotpads are pen-active areas below the system display that you can use to adjust the
settings of the display and speaker settings while the system is running. Separate
hotpads are available for enabling the right mouse button function and the pen
hovering mode.
To use a hotpad, tap directly on it with the pen. You can also press and hold the pen
tip against the Volume and Brightness hotpads to automatically repeat the hotpad
function. The location of each hotpad is shown in Figure 2-1.
