2. Handwriting on the LCD screen
2.1 Using the Stylus
Use the stylus in the same way that you would use a regular pen, with a
few differences. Use your thumb or index nger to control stylus function
button. Pressing the button has the same function as a right-button click on
a mouse by default. You can choose the button function from the list below
in the Pen Setting interface.

4
2.2 Controlling the Stylus
Single Tap: Tapping the screen with the stylus produces the same effect
as a left-click on a mouse.
Double Tap: By quickly tapping the screen twice produces the same effect
as a double left-click on a mouse.
Double-click Technique: After positioning the cursor, quickly double-tap
the tip of the stylus on the screen, being careful not to move the position of
the pen tip position too much.
If you feel that the double-tap reaction is too slow, you can adjust the
mouse double-click speed by going to Control Panel > Hardware and
Sound > Devices and Printers > Mouse > Buttons.
Tap and Drag: Select a target point on the screen and press the stylus
tip down. Without lifting the tip, move the pen to drag the target to its new
position. Lift the stylus off the screen to complete the action.
