Trackpad
The whole screen below the live view is a trackpad, with mouse buttons underneath.
Moving and clicking
| Do this | And the computer |
|---|---|
| Move one finger | Moves the cursor |
| Tap with one finger | Left click |
| Tap with two fingers | Right click |
| Drag with two fingers | Scrolls |
| Tap, then hold and move | Drags whatever is under the cursor |
| Tap with three fingers | Middle click |
The full list, including the three-finger swipes and pinch, is in Gestures.
The buttons
Under the pad are L, M and R. L works like a real mouse button: hold it and move a finger on the pad to drag, for example to select text or move a window. M and R click. If the connection drops while L is held, both the phone and the computer let go of it.
Speed and direction
In Settings:
- Cursor speed, from 0.5× to 4×, default 1.6×.
- Natural scrolling, on by default. It also flips the direction of three-finger sideways swipes.
The screen stays awake while you are on the trackpad. After a gesture, a small badge names what was sent.
