Gestures

Your NOOK recognizes these dierent gestures:

• Tap

• Double tap

• Press and hold

• Swipe

• Scroll

• Drag

• Pinch and Zoom

Tap

A tap on the screen is a quick touch of your ﬁngertip. It’s the same gesture you use when you tap a key on a com-

puter keyboard.

Tapping on a button.

Double Tap

Some features require a double tap: two taps in quick succession. For example, by double-tapping on an item in the

NOOK Store, you can open a window displaying information about the item.

Press and Hold

Pressing and holding means touching your ﬁnger to the screen and holding it there for 2 seconds.

In many situations, pressing and holding causes your NOOK to open a pop-up menu. The pop-up menu—sometimes

called a contextual menu—oers you choices about the image your ﬁnger is resting on.

For example, if you press and hold on a book cover, your NOOK opens a menu oering you choices of things you

can do with that book: open the book, recommend it, lend it, and so on.
