Chapter 2 Using your C5t/F5t Using touch 21

OTE: If the tablet doesn’t respond when you tap with your finger, try using more area of your
fingertip. Unlike other types of touchscreens, the C5t/F5t capacitive touchscreen doesn’t
respond to other input. For example, you can’t tap it with another object such as a credit
card or if you’re wearing gloves.
Calibrate touch
The digitizer is an application that detects the position of the pen or your finger on the
touchscreen display. You should calibrate the digitizer the first time you start your
Tablet PC. Then, you can recalibrate the digitizer whenever the pointer doesn’t align with
the pen tip or finger.
To calibrate the digitizer:
1. Open Motion Dashboard.
2. Tap Pen & Tablet.
3. Under Pen & Tablet, tap Calibrate Digitizer.
4. Tap the Calibrate button in the Display tab.
5. Choose Pen input or Touch input in the following pop-up display.
6. Provide calibration samples by tapping the crosshairs with your pen or finger in the
following screen as directed.
7. Tap Ye s or No when asked if you want to save the calibration data.
How to use gestures with the multiple-touch display
The C5t/F5t Tablet PC touchscreen display supports multi-touch, which allows you to
directly manipulate items on-screen, such as to navigate websites and view photos. For
example, you can use your fingers to scroll through lists, zoom in and out, rotate, and so on.
Changing to one-tap open for touch
With touch, you may want to change how you select and open items. By default, Windows®
folders are set up so that you tap once to select an item and double-tap to open it. For
touchscreen displays, you can change the behavior to point to select an item and open an
item with one tap instead of two.
To change folder options:
1. From the Windows® Control Panel, tap Appearance and Personalization, Folder
Options, then tap Specify single- or double-click to open.
2. Under Click items as follows, tap Single-click to open an item (point to select).
For more information, open Windows® Help and search for “folder options.”
