Feature request?

This looks great even though I don't need it at the moment.

Would it be possible to add zoom feature...two finger split or even one finger spiral zoom actions?

This of course if the touchpad/hardware supports it.

Thanks!

Hi,

I like this version of touchpad management, because its there, where it should be and not an separeted application.

However, there are some things which would be nice to have:

* Enable/disbale touchpad via global shortcut
* fix german translation ;) (the cmake files are not correct)
* Also for me, disable while typing does not work

But since your are busy at time moment, I will wait for a while :)

Thanks anyway
Martin

I opened this bug report today, it says:

"I installed the module kcm_touchpad, enabled horizontal scrolling (vertical
scrolling was already enabled and working) and got the result that scrolling no
longer works, neither horizontal nor vertical."

I use KDE SC 4.3.90.

Can you help me getting scrolling back?

I can't reproduce in 0.3.1. Did it stop working immediately when you pressed Apply or only after KDE restart? Which version of KDE? Could you attach your kcmtouchpadrc?

Well, you have both HorizScrollDelta and VertScrollDelta equal zero, which explains why scrolling does not work. How do sliders look? Could you compare kcmtouchpadrc before and after you change settings? Also good would be compare X synaptics settings too -- synclient -l before and after changing settings. Assuming that "before" works correctly.

Thats my settings window, with this setting, scrolling works, but not good, I have to scroll very much on my touchpad, to scroll a bit on screen. If I set the sliders to High, scrolling doesnt work at all.
I'm sorry I dont really get what kind of data you want, what settings should I change before I submit my kcmtouchpadrc?
Thanks for helping, keep up the good work!

Current kcmtouchpadrc: http://pastebin.com/m25af398d

OK I see. That setting it to "High" disables scrolling is a bug and should be fixed. I myself feel good enough when slider is on the first tick from the left. You may try to move it even further to the left, just not to the very end.

Hi, my gf's laptop supports multitouch, but the poor touchpad program in Ubuntu is crap. I wanted to try out this, which works perfectly for me in Arch. However, ho do I install it? the procedure of adding the PPA seems not to work for me.
Thanks

I am not sure what PPA is, but basically you compile it and then copy kcm_touchpad.so in somewhere in module path (kde4-config --path module) and kcm_touchpad.desktop somewhere in services path (kde4-config --path services).

1. Which version of kcm_touchpad?
2. Could you please rebuild with debugging (or install debug packages, I do not know how archlinux handles it) so stack would be useful, reproduce crash and post stack?
3. Please show "synclient -l" output.

That's interesting:

FingerLow = format mismatch (32)
FingerHigh = format mismatch (32)
FingerPress = format mismatch (32)

Could you please show raw properties; like:

{pts/0}% xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer ...
⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=15 [slave pointer (2)]

{pts/0}% xinput list-props 15
Device 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad':
Device Enabled (121): 1
...
