Hello,

Since Windows 10 no longer has the charms bar, I was wondering if it were possible to assign edge-swipe touchpad gestures on Windows 10.

I have Control Zone type touchpad on my non-touchscreen HP laptop and it looks extremely ugly when the left and the right of the touchpad is darker gray but has no distinct purpose than the middle part.

I couldn't find any way to enable edge-swipe gestures in the Control Panel or Settings app. (Maybe there is but I failed to find.)

Is there any way to have edge-swipe gestures on Windows 10? On tablets, swiping from left if the screen brings up Task View and from right brings up Action Center. The gestures could at least be like that on the touchpad, too.

Is HP (or Synaptics) planning to release updated drivers for such thing?
Is there any way to create our own touchpad gestures, perhaps?

Thank you!

I also have this question.  I really enjoyed using the edge swipe and edge click gestures.  There are still plenty of uses for the gestures, and I would love the ability to assign them.

I would also like an answer to this question.  It would be great if HP or Synaptics would  assign the control zones a swipe gesture.
