To double click, quickly press the button twice in a row.

Try to not take your finger off while double clicking. Some people raise their finger up to click or double click. For clicking that works, but for double clicking it is easier to leave your finger on the button and press down twice.

To drag an item or object, press the mouse button down, and keep it down.Then move the mouse. In some programs you drag and drop items. You first click on the object you want to drag, hold the mouse button down, and then drag the object to a new location. Then you release the mouse button and the object is in the new location.


Right Clicks are required less often (for context menu's etc) . Use middle finger for right hand operation and move index finger across for left hand operation.
