Using the Touch Pad

You can point to, select, drag, and scroll objects on the screen using the touch pad.

✍

You can disable/enable the touch pad by pressing the Fn+F1 keys. You can also use the VAIO Control Center to change the touch pad settings.

Be sure to connect a mouse before disabling the touch pad. If you disable the touch pad before connecting a mouse, you will be able to use only the 
keyboard for pointer operations.

Point

Slide your finger on the touch pad (1) to place the pointer (2) on an item or object.

Click

Press the left button (3) once.

Double-click

Press the left button twice in a row.

Right-click

Press the right button (4) once. With many applications, this action displays a context-sensitive shortcut menu (if any).

Drag

Slide your finger on the touch pad while pressing the left button.

Scroll

Slide your finger along the right edge of the touch pad to scroll vertically. Slide your finger along the bottom edge to scroll 
horizontally. Once vertical or horizontal scrolling is engaged, you can move your finger in circles on the touch pad to 
keep scrolling without taking the finger off the touch pad (the scroll function is available only with applications that 
support a touch pad scroll feature).

Flick

Slide two fingers linearly in quick motion on the touch pad. On web browser software or image viewer software, you can 
flick left to move backward and flick right to move forward.

Pinch

With some software applications, you can pinch on the touch pad with two fingers for zooming. Pinch open to zoom in 
or pinch close to zoom out.
