Release-to-select can also help you make a double-click.  When you move the pointer onto an icon, and then lift your finger off the stick, one click is made (Release-to-Select).  Then, when you press the stick again, the second click is made.  The result is a double-click.


Press-to-Select simulates only one mouse button.  Use this option to choose whether you want Press-to-Select to work like a Left Click or like a Right Click button.

Note that Left Click and Right Click can be modified in the Mouse Properties in Control Panel.  If you have set your Mouse Properties - Button configuration as "Right-handed," then Left Click works as a Normal Select, and Right Click works as a Context Menu.  If you have set your Mouse Properties - Button configuration as "Left-handed," then Left Click works as a Context Menu, and Right Click works as a Normal Select.

The Magnifying Glass can be used to enlarge a movable area of your display.  You may click on objects "through" the Magnifying Glass.  The right button changes the size of the Magnifying Glass, and the left mouse button changes its magnifying power.
