Recent versions include a "Coasting" feature, enabled by default, which may have the undesired effect of continuing almost any scrolling until the next tap or click, even if you are no longer touching the touchpad.Alternatively, see #Disable touchpad while typing. If you find that your hand frequently brushes your touchpad, causing the TapButton2 option to be triggered (which will more than likely paste from your clipboard), and you do not mind losing two-finger-tap functionality, set TapButton2 to 0.Negative values cause natural scrolling like in macOS. VertScrollDelta and HorizScrollDelta (integer) configures the speed of scrolling, it is a bit counter-intuitive because higher values produce greater precision and thus slower scrolling. Properly adjusting this parameter can reduce false positives when the hands hover over or lightly touch the pad. Decrease the value to require a more crisp tap. MaxTapTime Determines how "crisp" a tap must be to be considered a real tap.

FingerHigh (integer) when finger pressure goes above this value, the driver counts it as a touch. FingerLow (integer) when finger pressure drops below this value, the driver counts it as a release. EmulateTwoFingerMinZ/W (integer) play with this value to set the precision of two finger scroll.

HorizTwoFingerScroll (boolean) enables horizontal scrolling using two fingers. VertTwoFingerScroll (boolean) enables vertical scrolling using two fingers. HorizEdgeScroll (boolean) enables horizontal scrolling while dragging across the bottom edge of the touch pad. VertEdgeScroll (boolean) enables vertical scrolling while dragging across the right edge of the touch pad. TapButton2 (integer) configures which mouse-button is reported on a non-corner, two finger tap TapButton3 (integer) configures which mouse-button is reported on a non-corner, three finger tap RBCornerButton (integer) configures which mouse-button is reported on a right bottom corner, one finger tap (use Option "RBCornerButton" "3" to achieve Ubuntu style tap behaviour for right mouse button in lower right corner) RTCornerButton (integer) as above, but for top right corner, one finger tap. TapButton1 (integer) configures which mouse-button is reported on a non-corner, one finger tap. The following example file configures some common options, including vertical, horizontal and circular scrolling as well as tap-to-click: Machine-specific options can be discovered using #Synclient.
