like a Chromebook mouse. Pressing down anywhere on the pad functions like the left button of a mouse. Pressing down anywhere with two fingers functions like the right button of a mouse.

Function keys
The Chromebook uses function keys or key combinations to access some hardware and software controls, such as screen brightness and volume. The dedicated function keys each have a specific function.

Common keyboard shortcuts
You can use shortcuts to complete some tasks more quickly.

Note: For a complete list of keyboard shortcuts, press Ctrl + Alt + /

Touchpad
The built-in touchpad is a pointing device that senses movement on its surface. This means the cursor responds as you move your fingers across the surface of the touchpad.

pressing (and holding) Alt on the keyboard and tapping the touchpad with one finger both equal a “right-click” on a Chromebook mouse.
Two-finger swipe| Place two fingers on the touchpad and move them up and down to scroll vertically, left and right to scroll horizontally.
Drag and drop| Select the item you want to move with one finger. With a second finger, move the item. Release both fingers to drop the item.  (This gesture works for files, not windows or icons.)
