Getting Started 33
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.
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.
