Getting used to the touchpad?

Finally, a year later, I've pulled the trigger on a 9350 with the QHD and so far all seems good with no apparent issues. This is my first laptop with combined touchpad and mouse buttons and I'm wondering is it just a case of getting used to it or is there any mod I can do?. As it is, it seems that a lot of my button clicks are registered incorrectly, because if my finger moves even slightly on the button/touchpad, the cursor will have moved on the screen leading to an incorrect mouseclick. It seems like a bad design to me where the lower part of the touchpad where the mouse buttons are, are also active touchpad area. I'm really impressed overall with the touchpad's responsiveness, I would just like to be able to turn off this responsiveness over the mouse buttons. Is it just a case of learning to live with this or has anyone else experienced this at all?

 

Have you replaced the stock touchpad driver as per this guide?

It took me a little while to get used to this, too, coming from an old X1 Carbon with not just buttons but a trackpoint. I find the integrated touchpad on the Dells to be much easier to use with taps than clicks.

One-finger tap for left clicks and two-finger for right. I only actually click the touchpad in the corners when I absolutely have to. Took me a little while to retrain myself but now I'm just as efficient.

 

I haven't as it's not really a performance issue I'm having. I'm finding the touchpad very responsive which I'm really liking - I've returned enough new laptops at this stage for having terrible touchpads. I may check out those drivers in the future though.

Yes, the problem I was having was forcing me to tap as oppose click so maybe I'll get used to this. The other thing is that the mouse click is very audible so many clicks lead to much clacking...lol
