The Basics
Pinch-to-zoom
– Use your index finger and thumb in a pinching motion (to
zoom out) or spreading motion (to zoom in) when using Chrome, a map,
photos, the Contacts list, the Favorites list, the Groups list, a music list, and
Polaris Viewer 5 documents. Spread apart to make screen information
larger (easier to see and read), or pinch together to view more area and
information. The pinch gesture also changes the Home screen. Pinch in on
the Home screen to change to mini canvas view, then spread apart to
return to the normal Home screen view. Spread apart on the normal Home
screen to hide all of your Home screen items, then pinch in to redisplay
them.
Rotate the screen
– From many apps and menus, the orientation of the
screen adjusts to the device's physical orientation. You can deactivate this
function in the Display settings menu.
