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.

The scrolling and coasting features can be disabled or 
changed in the Mouse Properties dialog box.

When a step instructs you to click or choose an item, move 
the cursor to the item, then press and release the primary 
(left-hand) button. To double-click, press the primary button 
twice in rapid succession. The primary button usually 
corresponds to the left mouse button.

The function of the secondary (right-hand) button depends on 
the program you are using. It usually corresponds to the right 
mouse button. Check your program’s documentation to 
determine if it uses the right mouse button.

The four corners of the Dual Mode Pad are called tap zones. 
You can configure each tap zone to perform one of the 
following actions when tapped:

❖

Open the Start Menu

❖

Open the current application’s menu

❖

Minimize the current application
