How to properly use the new Lenovo touchpads/trackpads
I had a lot of trouble using the touchpad on my new Lenovo Thinkpad T540p, so much so that I was thinking of returning the device. Then I realized Lenovo's new touchpads require a different style of use than what we're accustomed to. After changing how I used the touchpad, I've had a much more enjoyable experience!
Note: You can alter a lot of the settings for your touchpad by going to Control Panel -- Mouse and then look for the touchpad tab (might be labeled as "Synaptics", the company which makes many of the touchpads out there).
Let me know if you have any questions or problems!

    Can you explain why my screen is constantly being minimized? As I'm working I touch the pad somehow that minimizes the screen and It's beyond frustrating!!

    Thank you, very informative. Have been so frustrated with these and hated using them, but now finally understand how they work. Surprised how difficult it was to find this information before stumbling upon your video.

    I would have never guessed a two finger click was a right click. Very helpful!

    At about 2:36, after demostrating zooming in and out, you said something about returning the screen size to normal. How did you do that? Thanks, Enzo

    • @ahmedbrown7569
      @ahmedbrown7569 9 месяцев назад

      Hey Enzo! ctrl + zero. Hold down the CTRL key and then press the number zero key. It's a keyboard shortcut that resets zoom in most browsers. You can also hold CTRL and then press the plus/minus symbols to zoom in/out respectively.

    If you want to jump straight to the solution, go to 3:54. Sorry, it was an unplanned and off-the-cuff video, so it wound up being too long. Thank you for all the kind comments over the years!

    I'm used to using a Mac, and this thing is enough to make me want to smash it on the floor... I very carefully click with one fingertip to open a new tab or different tab and it opens the two finger / right click menu. I wasn't VERY annoyed by this unit until I started trying to edit with a CAD program... I rarely goes 3 seconds without an issue. None of the gestures are intuitive. The zoom is two fingers scrolling instead of pinch and squeeze, the scroll rate seems like it's never the same... like it has momentum / inertia, but it's like ... Too slow, too slow ... tooo slow TOO FAST ! This is worst than using an old Dell from 1995.

    This would have been a lot more helpful if you showed the screen and what your actions on the touchpad were doing on the screen. I just want to learn how to highlight and copy text using the touchpad. It’s so frustrating how difficult it is. It should be easier.

    My laptop is nearly 9 years old and 2 weeks ago after a windows 10 update the track pad (with 2 buttons) decided not to function properly. At first I didn't know what was wrong but after much trial and error I sorted out what to do to make it function. After I watched your video I realised that the update had changed my pointing device driivers so I went and rolled back to the previous drivers and all was fine until another update repeated the problem. I stopped all updates until May 20th@ 2022 and all is fine. However, I'm getting a new laptop shortly so your video will be a great help. I'm just curious as to why laptop manufacturers don't tell you how to use the trackpads. Thanks a lot.

    I still think that having two physical buttons for the left and right click is simpler and more tactile especially for those with a print disability surely Accessibility is out of the window with such a device. Thank you for your video and instructions will try to simulate the right click by pressing to finger on the touch button Hopefully it should get the context menu app where I can choose options like open, open with, send to etc.

    lenovo is worst PC I ever had. Their touchpad relatively is better among the lenove, right now I got cheap lenovo PC 2 years ago, I still couldn't figure out how hold and drag. A lot of time I want to throw in the trash. To save me a 20 bucks cause me a lot of trouble on daily life.

    Thank you very much. This helped much. Long time I was thinking this touchpad must be defect or what, when the right-clicking was terrible by clicking to the bottom-right corner, time-to-time it was really terrible and not working. I did not know that it was needed to click anywhere just using two fingers! You saved my day, thanks a lot.
