# Scrolling and selecting text

You may scroll the page by using the scrollbars on the page when present, by using the arrow keys, or by dragging the stylus on the page.

When dragging the stylus, the default operation is to grab and move the page with the stylus. However, if you click the central button on the Zaurus, or space, you change to selection mode. Now you can select text with the stylus. If you now move the stylus off the page edge, the page will scroll in the opposite direction, allowing you to select larger portions of text. To change mode back to grab and move, click the central button again.

The default mode for scrolling can be configured in the General preferences. Here you can also choose to hide any scrollbars, to increase the viewing area.
