Practical Learning: Dragging

1- Position the mouse on Recycle Bin
2- Click once and hold your mouse button down
3- While the mouse is still down, move it in the right direction until Recycle Bin is positioned somewhere in

the middle center of the desktop
4- Then release the mouse
5- Once again, position the mouse on another icon
6- Click and hold the mouse button down
7- While the mouse button is still down and the item is selected, move the mouse right and down until the item

is not positioned where it was
8- Then release the mouse
9- In the same way, drag other items of your screen right, left, up, or down. Your desktop may look like this

(I can guaranty your desktop will be different than mine and it can be different than your neighbor's if you

are in a classroom, but that's not important):

From now on, unless specified otherwise, if you are asked to DRAG
1- Position the mouse cursor on the item or the word indicated

(you will always be indicated where to start and what to drag)
2- Then press the left mouse button once and hold it down
3- Then move the mouse in the direction indicated (the direction, left, right, up, or down will always be

given to you)
4- Once you get to the specified location, item, or word, then release the mouse.

Remember this. Unless indicated otherwise: DRAG always refers to the LEFT MOUSE BUTTON.

Sometimes you will be asked to RIGHT-DRAG an item. In this case, perform the same dragging operation

but with the right mouse button.
