X240 Proper Middle Click

#1 Post by bobbarker » Sun Jul 13, 2014 11:46 am

Recently got my mitts on a new X240 and the one thing I can't figure out is configuring the Trackpoint "buttons". Searching hasn't shown anything promising, except that other people are having the same problem.

How do I get the Trackpoint's middleclick to emulate a classic mouse middleclick? I've looked around in the registry (on Win7) and I can't find anything. It's always been a quick setting on older Thinkpads but not this newer unit.

Excellent. That fixes the clicking. Is there any way to get the classic scrolling, too?

You mean the classical middle click scrolling? Should be functional as well with TPMiddle.
- 1x Short Press on a link in a browser for example = Normal Middle click
-1x Short click anywhere = Classical Middle Click Scrolling
- Holding the middle button depressed = Standard TrackPoint scrolling
