Getting Started 211.5 Navigating Your DeviceThere are different ways you can navigate and interact with the interface of your device.Finger-touch controlA 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 use when interacting with your device:Touch or tapWhen selecting items on the screen, such as the Home screen tabs, Start menu, programs and settings icons, and large on-screen buttons, simply 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.SwipeTo 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 screenSwipe 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.ScrollingWhen 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.SlideSliding 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 tabsSlide 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 playbackIn 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.FlickFlicking 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 panningIn programs such as Album and Opera Mobile, you can use finger gestures when zooming and panning. See Chapter 3, 8 and 11 for details.••••
