Chapter 113 FineTrack and FineTrack buttons The built-in FineTrack is a pointing device that senses movement on its surface. This means the cursor responds as you use your finger to move the FineTrack. Its central location on the keyboard provides optimum comfort and support. FineTrack Basics The following items show you how to use the FineTrack and FineTrack buttons: •Using your finger, apply light, steady force on the FineTrack (1) to move the cursor. •Press the FineTrack left (2) and the right (3) buttons located below the keyboard to perform selection and execution functions. These two FineTrack buttons are similar to the left and right buttons on a mouse.
14Chapter 1 Touchpad The built-in touchpad is a pointing device that senses movement on its surface. This means the cursor responds as you move your finger across the surface of the touchpad. The central location on the palmrest provides optimum comfort and support. Touchpad Basics The following items will show you how to use the touchpad. •Move your finger across the touchpad (2) to move the cursor. •Press the left (1) and right (4) buttons to perform selection and execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the left and right buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad is the same as clicking the left button. •Use the 4-way scroll (3) button to scroll up or down and move left or right a page. This button mimics the cursor pressing on the right scroll bar of Windows applications. Note: Keep your fingers, as well as the surface of the touchpad dry and clean. The touchpad is sensitive to your finger movement; hence, the lighter the touch, the better the response. Tapping hard will not increase the touchpad’s responsiveness. Note: By default, vertical and horizontal scrolling is enabled on your touch pad. It can be disabled under Mouse settings in Windows Control Panel.
