Touchscreen and Mouse
The behavior of the mouse pointer on the touchscreen varies by VX7 construction.
P
To identify your VX7 platform type, please see “Identifying Your VX7”, in
Chapter 2, “Physical Description.
Platform 1 VX7’s
Because the touchscreen also functions as a mouse, the pointer for on the 95-key keyboard, a USB
mouse or a PS/2 mouse pointer may not always be visible on the screen. The mouse pointer
reappears when the 95-key keyboard pointer or external mouse is moved or clicked. Please see
“USB Mouse” earlier in this manual for more details.
• When a USB mouse is first attached to the VX7, the mouse pointer may not be
visible. However, moving or clicking the mouse causes the pointer to appear.
• When the USB mouse is unplugged, the pointer may remain visible until the
touchscreen is tapped.
• If the touchscreen is used for input, the mouse pointer may disappear. However,
moving or clicking the mouse or pointing device on the 95-key keyboard causes the
pointer to reappear.
Platform 2 VX7’s
The mouse pointer is not visible unless a mouse (P/S2 or USB mouse or 95-key keyboard with
pointing device) is attached.
If a mouse of any kind is attached, the mouse pointer is displayed on screen.
