Using the Dual Mode Pad
The Dual Mode Pad, the small, square cutout located in front
of the keyboard, is sensitive to touch. To move the cursor,
simply move your finger on the Dual Mode Pad in the
direction you would like to move the cursor:
To move the cursor to the top of the page, push your
finger forward on the Dual Mode Pad.
To move the cursor to the bottom of the page, drag your
finger toward yourself.
To move the cursor to the right side of the page, slide
your finger across the Dual Mode Pad from left to right.
To move it to the left side, slide your finger from right to
left.
Because the Dual Mode Pad is much smaller than the display screen,
moving your cursor across the screen often means having to move your
finger several times across the Dual Mode Pad in the preferred
direction.
Once you have positioned your cursor, you can click it into
place by either double-tapping the Dual Mode Pad or clicking
the control buttons.
Control buttons
When a step instructs you to click or choose an item, move
the cursor to the item, then press and release the primary
(left-hand) button. To double-click, press the primary button
twice in rapid succession. The primary button usually
corresponds to the left mouse button.
The function of the secondary (right-hand) button depends on
the program you are using. It usually corresponds to the right
mouse button. Check your program’s documentation to
determine whether it uses the secondary mouse button.
