- Touchpad Pointing Device
To the right of the touchpad is a circular dimple, approximately an inch in diameter. This is known as the
“scroll wheel” and is used for scrolling up and down pages and zooming in and out on photos. Note that
the scroll wheel does not actually move; moving your finger on the “wheel” causes the scrolling action.
Clicking
Clicking means pushing and releasing a button. To left-click,
move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the left
button once, and then immediately release it. To right-click,
move the mouse cursor to the item you wish to select, press the
right button once, and then immediately release it. You also
have the option to perform the clicking operation by tapping
lightly on the Touchpad once. (Figure 9)

Double-Clicking
Double-clicking means pushing and releasing the left button
twice in rapid succession. This procedure does not function
with the right button. To double-click, move the cursor to the
item you wish to select, press the left button twice, and then
immediately release it. You also have the option to perform the
double-click operation by tapping lightly on the Touchpad
twice. (Figure 10)
