Point and Click

When you have moved and placed the cursor over an icon, a menu item or a command that

you want to execute, simply tap slightly on the touchpad or press the left button to select.

This procedure, called as point and click is the basics of operating your notebook. Unlike the

traditional pointing device such as the mouse, the whole touchpad can act as a left button,

so that your each tap on the touchpad is equivalent to pressing the left button. Tapping twice

more rapidly on the touchpad is to execute a double-click.

Drag and Drop

You can move files or objects in your notebook by using drag-and-drop. To do so, place the

cursor on the desired item and slightly tap twice on the touchpad, and then keep your

fingertip in contact with the touchpad on the second tap. Now, you can drag the selected

item to the desired location by moving your finger on the touchpad, and then lift your finger

from the touchpad to drop the item into place. Alternately, you can press and hold the left

button when you select an item, and then move your finger to the desired location; finally,

release the left button to finish the drag-and-drop operation.
