Switch Control
Switch Control lets you control iPod touch using a single switch or multiple switches. Use any
of several methods to perform actions such as selecting, tapping, dragging, typing, and even
free-hand drawing. The basic technique is to use a switch to select an item or location on the
screen, and then use the same (or dierent) switch to choose an action to perform on that item
or location. Three basic methods are:
•
Item scanning (default), which highlights dierent items on the screen until you select one.
•
Point scanning, which lets you use scanning crosshairs to pick a screen location.
•
Manual selection, which lets you move from item to item on demand (requires multiple
switches).
Whichever method you use, when you select an individual item (rather than a group), a menu
appears so you can choose how to act on the selected item (tap, drag, or pinch, for example).
