Using Touch Your Tablet-PC is able to distinguish between the pen and your fingertip (touch mode). When you use touch mode, a translucent image of a computer mouse, called the touch pointer, floats beneath your finger. The touch pointer has left and right mouse buttons that you can tap with your finger. You use the area beneath the buttons to drag the touch pointer. Your Tablet-PC ships with a digitizer utility which you can use to set one of four modes for using touch: • Pen only - Touch mode is disabled. • Touch only - Pen input is disabled. • Auto mode - If the pen is close to the display, pen mode is active.

Using Touch
Your Tablet-PC is able to distinguish between the pen and your fingertip
(touch mode). When you use touch mode, a translucent image of a computer
mouse, called the touch pointer, floats beneath your finger. The touch pointer
has left and right mouse buttons that you can tap with your finger. You use
the area beneath the buttons to drag the touch pointer.
Your Tablet-PC ships with a digitizer utility which you can use to set one of
four modes for using touch:
•

•
Touch only — Pen input is disabled.
•

pen is not within range, double-tap the display with your finger to enter
touch mode. Touch mode remains active until the pen is close to the
display again.
•
Dual mode — Microsoft Vista switches automatically between the pen
and touch modes, based on its internal programming.
