Zbook Studio G3
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

I received a Zbook Studio G3 from my company recently and I'm trying to get used to the touchpad. I had always been using the nipple before.

 

I have two issues.

 

1- I cannot find a menu option to disable "tap to click". I'm not a big fan of it.

 

2- I use the bottom part of the touchpad only for clicking. Is it possible to make this part ineffective to mouse cursor movement? Very often, I accidentally drag while clicking.

 

Thanks already for responses.

Dear Customer,

 

Please try the below steps and tell us if was helpful.

 

All Settings>Devices>Mouse & touchpad>Additional mouse options and choose the Clickpad Settings tab, click the ClickPad Settings button.

Under MultiFinger Gestures, uncheck Pinch Zoom. You  maight have to disable Two Finger Scrolling also.

Click OK, then OK again.

 

If that does not help, Go back and under Tapping, uncheck two, three and four finger tapping.

In the Settings dialog windows for Mouse and touchpad, you can change the Touchpad sensitivity drop down box to Long delay.

 

 

  • Click the “Start” menu – Type control panel and then select “Control panel” – Change the “view by” to “Small icons” – Select “Mouse” from the list.
  • Mouse properties window will open. Go to “Device settings / Touchpad” tab and then select “Disable” to disable the touchpad.

PS: You can check the box which says “Disable internal pointing device when external USB pointing device is attached” to disable the touchpad only when you are connecting the external mouse.

 

 

Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again
