 Also known as a glidepoint, pressure sensitive tablet, or trackpad, a touchpad is an input device found on the majority of portable computers, and now also available with some external keyboards, that allow you to move the mouse cursor without the need of an external mouse. A touchpad is operated by using
your finger and dragging it across a flat surface; as you move your finger on the surface, the mouse cursor will move in that same direction, and like most computer mice, the touchpad also has two buttons below the touch surface that enables you to click like a standard mouse.
- See document CH001153 for additional information about why the cursor may jump around even though you're not touching the touchpad.
- Additional information about cleaning your laptop, including the laptop touchpad, can be found on document CH000780.
