TwoFingerScroll (two finger scrolling done right! + more)

[canofspam4000]

I'd love to see those features implemented, especially inertial scrolling. And now that you mention it, I see that those bugs do indeed exist. Let's hope that MacHater is still around to help you out! Thanks for taking the initiative, DoomCastle

Late to the game, but is there way to disable a portion of the touchpad? like the portion over the buttons on my DM1Z? I hate having the cursor move while I'm trying to click something when I don't want to tap.

Yes there is.... I was having the exact same problem and Thankfully Pepperdanky told me how to do it

Here is the thread:

Fantastic! Thanks for this. Coming from a macbook pro, the touchpad on my HP dv7 was giving me fits, even with the latest synaptics drivers, until I unstalled this wonderful utility. Now I have 2 finger scrolling working like it's supposed to.

great utility, but horizontal scrolling doesn't work... i'm on windows7 64bit, hp dv6-3000.

I just downloaded version 1.08 and horizontal scrolling works ok for me (Win7 64 with Synaptics' features disabled) The keep scrolling on edge feature does not though.

I was directed here from a member of HPs customer service forum. 2FingerScroll is much better than the Synaptics driver. It was unbearably uncontrollable and eratic to me. I miss a few things though; Pinch zoom, and an option to remove the icon from the taskbar (OCD,it was a tough decision to leave battery and wifi next to the clock) Another small issue is I can't disable the top corners (to turn off touchpad,etc) without Synaptics software running,which buggers everything up.

I don't know why the Synaptics features have to function so poorly. They have all the nice features, but must have monkeys writing the code. I'd pay $ for the features of Synaptics Touchpad Enhancements but the quality of MacHater's 2FingerScroll

 - Added "Gestures" tab
 - Added three-finger Swipe Up feature, invokes Windows Aero Flip (inspired by Apple's Mac OS X Lion Mission Control swipe up feature)
 - Added three-finger Swipe Left/Right feature, invokes Alt+Tab (inspired by Apple's Mac OS X Lion task switch swipe left/right feature)
 - Fixed PayPal donation link
 - Added invert scrolling direction feature, inspired by the community of TabletPCReview, Smartphones, and Apple's Mac OS X Lion

Any way of getting horizontal scroll work on Win XP?
At the same laptop under windows 7 the utility work flawlessly, but under XP there's no reaction to the horizontal movement.

I've read a lot about "Reil's" touchpad app on these forums...
Are these 2 apps similar? Is there an advantage to one over the other?

I own an HP dv6tqe by the way

Fantastic tool mate, thanks a lot! Using it on my Dell XPS 17, the DELL and synaptics drivers are just fubar

Two finger scrolling is behaving over sensitive though, sometimes it speeds up/down like crazy even when im just swiping slowly/lightly. Turning down speed makes the scrolling slover shortly but this "full speed scrolling" still happens after a few seconds, resulting in the page jumping down at full speed.

Do I have to uninstall the synaptics driver or do I just run yout tool along with it?
am on win7 64 with the latest synaptics driver on a DELL. Thanks for you help, will donate fo shizzle!

Edit: Never mind, I just deactivated multigestures in synaptics and now I am simply amazed by the result Have a beer on me! Plus, I will spread the word, I think many are frustrated by those -poor drivers and never heard of your great tool.

Kinda lame that some guy at home has to make proper drivers for synaptics/Dell -.-

Still wondering whether to uninstall de synaptics drivers or just deactivate all the multigesture features?
