Controlling Your Xoom's Touchscreen

Although you can plug a USB keyboard or mouse into your Xoom's micro-USB port using a special adapter, you control your Xoom mostly by touching its screen in different ways.

Action	How to Do It
Tap	Choose an on-screen icon, button, or menu option by tapping it with your finger.
Double-tap	Zoom in or out of a portion of the screen by tapping it twice in rapid succession.
Touch and hold	Touching and holding your finger against the glass often brings up a menu, lets you move an item across the screen, or selects a word.
Drag	Touch something on the screen and drag your finger up, down, or sideways to move that item across the screen.
Drag, hold, and drop	Touch and hold something on-screen, then slide your finger to that object's new location on-screen. Lift your finger to drop it into its new place.
Flick	Much like flicking a piece of dust off the screen, a flick lets you scroll quickly through menus or long lists.
Pinch	Placing two fingers on-screen and bringing the fingers together shrinks that portion of the screen, bringing more of the image into view.
Spread	The opposite of pinch, spreading your two fingers along the glass zooms into that portion of the screen.
