Continuous Scroll:
To scroll through a large document using gestures, hold your finger on the right side touchpad for a couple of seconds
until a circular icon appears, then move your finger in a clockwise circular motion to scroll down, or counter-clockwise
to scroll up. To scroll side to side, hold your finger on the bottom edge of the touchpad for a couple of seconds until
a circular icon appears, then move your finger clockwise to scroll right, and counter-clockwise to scroll left. (Fig. 11)
Momentum:
To increase the cursor movement speed, slide your finger quickly across the touchpad. (See Figure )
Flick Navigation:
On the touchpad, flicking two fingers to the right or left has the same effect as pressing the [Forward] or [Back]
buttons on applications such as Internet Explorer.
Pivot Rotation:
After placing one finger on the touchpad, you can rotate files (such as PDFs) or images by circling a second finger on
the touchpad.
