Selecting the tapping and scrolling settings The touchpad’s tapping*1 and scrolling*2 features are enabled at the factory. Enable or disable these features according to preference. See page XX for details on how to enable or disable these features. *1 The tapping feature Tapping lightly once on the touchpad is equivalent to performing a left click. This is handy for things like navigating hyperlinks or playing video files during a presentation. If your presentation does not have hyperlinks, video files, or other objects you would want to click, we recommend disabling the tapping feature to avoid using it by mistake. *2 The scrolling feature Place your finger on the scroll line (see page XX) and move it up and down to move the vertical scrollbar of the selected window. Using the pointer options to select the pen for writing on slides If you are using PowerPoint software, you can set the pointer to “Pen” to write on slides during your presentation. While a slideshow is running, press the Right button to display the shortcut menu, then select “Pen” in the “Pointer Options”, and set the pen to the desired colour. Using the strap You can put a neck strap or hand strap in the strap hole (see page XX). This is a handy way to make sure you do not drop the controller.
