v Controlling Method : There are two options as follows:
– Press Center Button, then use TrackPoint: If you select this option, you will be able to control the
scrolling or the Magnifying Glass window by holding down the center button and moving the
pointing stick.
Note: If you are not holding down the center button, the pointing stick only controls the cursor and
the Magnifying Glass window cannot be moved.
– Use TrackPoint: This option enables you to move the Magnifying Glass window without holding
down the center button. You can cancel the magnifying operation by clicking the center button. And
you can then control the cursor with an externally attached mouse.
Note: You can still use the TrackPoint to control the cursor by pressing the center button and
moving the pointing stick in the direction in which you want the cursor to move.
