Finger-touch control
A quick and easy way to interact with the home screen and the whole
interface of your device is by touch. Basically, the following are the types of
actions, called finger gestures, you would do when interacting with your
device:
Touch or tap
When selecting items on the screen, such as the Home screen tabs, Start
menu, programs and settings icons, and large on-screen buttons, simply
32 Getting Started
touch them with your finger. Apply some pressure with your finger pad
when touching an item on the screen.
Tapping means to touch lightly and quickly with your finger pad or
fingertip. On screens that display smaller-size items, you can more
accurately select an item by tapping it with your fingertip.
Swipe
To swipe means to drag your finger vertically or horizontally across the
screen. The following are some instances when you would use swiping:
Flipping on the Home screen
•
Swipe your finger vertically to flip through favorite contacts,
messages, music albums, photos, and more. For more information,
see “Using the TouchFLO 3D Home Screen” in Chapter 3.
Scrolling
•
When browsing the contacts list, web pages, documents, and certain
selection lists on the Home screen (such as the All Programs list),
slowly swipe your finger vertically across the screen to scroll. This
allows you to scroll by page and to view the content or available
selections as you scroll.
The direction of swiping resembles the way you move a printed
document as you are reading it. For detailed instructions, see “Finger
scrolling” in Chapter 3.
Slide
Sliding on the touch screen also involves dragging with your finger, but you
need to press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to
drag. While dragging, do not release your finger until you have reached the
target position.
The following are some instances when you would use sliding:
Switching between Home screen tabs
•
Slide your finger left and right to switch between the Home screen
tabs. For more information, see “Using the TouchFLO 3D Home
screen“ in Chapter 3.
Getting Started 33
Advancing playback
•
In players that have a progress bar, such as the Home screen’s Music
tab and Windows Media® Player Mobile, slide your finger horizontally
on their progress bar to advance forward or move backward in the
music or video you are playing.
For more information about the Home screen’s Music tab, see “Music”
in Chapter 3.
For more information about Windows Media® Player Mobile, see
“Using Windows Media® Player Mobile” in Chapter 11.
Flick
Flicking the screen is similar to swiping, except that you need to swipe your
finger in light, quicker strokes. This finger gesture is always in a vertical
direction, such as when flicking the contacts list. See “Finger scrolling” in
Chapter 3 for details.
Finger zooming and panning
In programs such as Album and Opera Mobile, you can use finger gestures
when zooming and panning. See Chapter 3, 8 and 11 for details.
Stylus
You can use the stylus to navigate
and interact with the touch screen.
To use the stylus, pull it out from the
stylus compartment at the bottom
of the right panel of your device.
If the backlight is off, removing
the stylus automatically turns the
backlight back on.
The stylus is magnetic and sticks to the side when held close to the device.
This prevents you from accidentally losing or misplacing the stylus.
Basically, you tap with the stylus to open programs and select items on the
screen, and you tap and hold on the screen to open a shortcut menu. You
can also use the stylus the same way as what you do with finger gestures,
such as swiping, sliding and flicking on the screen.
