Toshiba Satellite P105-S6034 User Manual - Page 62

62 Getting Started Using the Dual Mode Pad ❖ To move the cursor to the top of the page, push your finger forward on the Dual Mode Pad. ❖ To move the cursor to the bottom of the page, drag your finger toward yourself. ❖ To move the cursor to the right side of the page, slide your finger across the Dual Mode Pad from left to right. ❖ To move it to the left side, slide your finger from right to left. NOTE Because the Dual Mode Pad is much smaller than the display screen, moving your cursor across the screen often means having to move your finger several times across the Dual Mode Pad in the desired direction. You can avoid this by enabling EdgeMotion™. When this feature is enabled, the cursor continues moving when your finger reaches the edge of the Dual Mode Pad, and stops moving when you lift your finger. EdgeMotion™ can be enabled or changed in the Mouse Properties dialog box. Once you have positioned your cursor, you can either click it into place by double-tapping the Dual Mode Pad or clicking the control buttons. Scrolling with the Dual Mode Pad There are two active regions on the Dual Mode Pad that allow you to scroll as you would with any wheel device on a mouse or trackball. To scroll vertically, run your finger up or down along the right edge of the Dual Mode Pad. To scroll horizontally, run your finger along the bottom edge of the Dual Mode Pad. The Dual Mode Pad also supports coasting, which helps you to scroll easily through long documents. When coasting is enabled, scrolling continues after you lift your finger from the Dual Mode Pad, then stops when you touch the Dual Mode Pad surface again.
