Default Multitouch touchpad - 11-10-2008, 11:55 AM

Hello all.

I've read that Synaptics released some multitouch drivers for their touchpads, for OME.
The Acer One, for example, have such drivers.

I've setup the generic drivers from Synaptics (not the Dell ones) and they're not multitouch (under XP).

Are the official Dell drivers multitouch-enabled?
If not, does anyone know which one we could use to get multitouch?

byrdman164, most people here are discussing Windows, not OS X. There's lots of discussion of multitouch in the OS X section of the forum.

Not sure if this deserves it's own thread or something. But these drivers enable two finger scrolling on the mini 9. As well as some three finger stuff too. Be sure to check it out.

Now all I need is a driver that enables two finger scrolling and double-button-click as middle-click, and I'm set!

I installed the one with two finger scroll and a three finger flick, having issues with three finger flick - unless it can not be used as a back button (to go back a page in a web browser).

If so, shame on me haha.

Thanks for this Toby - just tried it on my Windows 10 install and on first pass appears to work well.

Was a little surprised at no two finger tap for right click being available but I guess setting an area on the rhs for right click is a reasonable alternate.

It does work. Cool. I love my Mini 9 even more now. 3 finger press is pretty cool as well.

works for me too. I have tried a couple other options, but this is the first to actually work. It also functions quite well on my mom's hp.I have one gripe though: the mini's trackpad is too small to support horizontal 3-finger gestures. No matter how many times I have tried, I can the the 3-finger flick to go back and forth between webpages.
Oh well...

I am a picky scroller, and I don't like the windows blocky, line-by-line scrolling. So I installed two finger scroll, which you can find at
http://code.google.com/p/two-finger-scroll
(which finally works, and never has before) and enabled the smooth scrolling option. And for good measure I installed SmoothScroll for Chrome from
https://chrome.google.com/extensions...impelpndgpoknn
and my scrolling experience is almost as buttery and smooth as on a mac! Yay!
