Edge Motion Properties Page

The Edge Motion properties page allows you to customize the long distance pointer motion capabilities of your TouchPad. When your finger reaches the edge of your TouchPad, the Edge Motion feature allows the pointer to continue to move until you lift your finger. See Move the Pointer Long Distances for more details about the Edge Motion feature.

Enabling Edge Motion

Check the appropriate boxes on this page for the types of

Edge Motion that you desire:

•When Dragging

•Always

•When Scrolling

Customizing Edge Zone Sizes

This page includes a small map of the TouchPad with the edge zones shaded in red. See the Edge Zone TouchPad Map for a more detailed description. You can adjust the size of each zone by dragging one of the black resize handles on the TouchPad map. If you are having trouble activating the Edge Motion feature, you might want to try making the edge zones wider.

Customizing Edge Motion Speed

During Edge Motion, the speed at which the pointer (or dragged object or Virtual Scrolling scroll thumb) moves can be pressure-sensitive or constant. With pressure-sensitive speed, the harder you press the faster the object or pointer moves. For this type of speed, check the box labeled Control edge motion speed with finger pressure.

If you prefer a constant speed for Edge Motion, you can adjust the speed with the Edge Motion speed slider located on this page.
