HTC RAPH500 Cell Phone User Manual


 
Getting Started  19
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.
Advancing playback
In players that have a progress bar, such as Windows Media® Player Mobile, slide your finger horizontally on 
the progress bar to advance forward or move backward in the music or video you are playing. 
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. 
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.
Navigation Control
On the Today screen and in many programs on your device, you can use the Navigation Control for directional 
control. Press the directional arrows to navigate up, down, left, and right on the screen. When an item has 
been selected on the screen, press the ENTER button (the center button) to confirm your selection.
The Navigation Control is also touch sensitive and can be used for zooming. Slide your finger clockwise 
around the Navigation Control to zoom in, counterclockwise to zoom out.

zooming in the GPS software.
