Using a Touch Device

The touch devices let you interact with objects using one or more fingers.

In touch devices, the selectable objects are displayed larger to make it easier to select. You can drag handles (large dots) to sketch and move profiles. The size of the fonts and the separation between the elements are well defined in the tree.

For general touch gestures, see Touch Gestures in the 3DEXPERIENCE Dashboard Apps guide.
