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” on page 52 for details.
Finger-zooming and finger-panning
In programs such as Album and Opera Mobile (page 143), you can use finger gestures when zooming and
panning.
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 Home 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 key (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.
