30 Chapter 04: Using Your eo Ultra-Mobile Tablet PC with Microsoft® Windows® 7
When using the stylus pen, hold it as if you were writing with a
standard pen. When using an eo a7400 model that includes a
digitizer, simply moving the tip of the digitizer stylus a few mil-
limeters above the screen will automatically activate the panel.
Without touching the screen, move the stylus around and watch
how the pointer (shaped like a diamond instead of a traditional
mouse arrow) follows the pen just as if you were moving a
mouse.
When you want to select or activate something, simply tap on
it. This is the same as clicking the left mouse button. When you
are using the system in digitizer mode, feel free to rest your hand
on the screen as it will only react to the pen. Be aware, however,
if you raise the tip of the pen too far from the screen, it will
automatically revert to touch screen mode and the pointer may
react to the presence of your resting hand.
When using a capacitive stylus or your nger in touch screen
mode, instead of sliding the pen or your nger around the
screen to move the pointer, simply tap on with what you want
to interact. Sliding the pen while lightly touching the tip to the
screen will move the on-screen pointer around as if you were
using a mouse and holding down the left mouse button. In
other words, you would be performing what is known as a drag
operation.
To perform a right mouse click in both digitizer and touch screen
mode, press and hold on the screen until you see a circle draw
around the tip of your pen or nger, then release to perform the
actual click.
NOTE FOR TOUCH SCREEN USERS: Additionally, to perform a right
mouse click, you can tap on an object (desktop, icon, etc.) with one
nger to select it and then, with you nger still on the screen, tap with
a second nger to perform the right-click.
Also, remember that since the touch screen is, by name, sensitive
to touch, resting your hand on the screen while navigating with
your ngers, or when using a stylus, might make the pointer
react unpredictably.
