    I have installed Windows 8 on my Alienware M14x followed by the latest 16.2.21 drivers with gestures support. However even with the latest drivers, none of the edge swipes was working. On applying a registry fix, I was possible to make left edge swipe work perfectly but I am not able to make the top edge and right edge swipe to work. Does anyone know ideal registry values for all the edges of alienware touchpad so that the gestures can work. It would be great if we can enable it on our product.

    This is the registry values that work for left edge swipe:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Synaptics\SynTPEnh\ZoneConfig\TouchPadPS2\Left Edge Pull]
    "ConfigFlags"=dword:00000101
    "PalmCheckFlags"=dword:00000000
    "ConfigFlagsEx"=dword:00000400
    "LoXRel"=dword:00000000
    "HiXRel"=dword:00003400
    "LoYRel"=dword:00001376
    "HiYRel"=dword:ffffec78
    "LoXFlags"=dword:00000010
    "HiXFlags"=dword:0000000a
    "LoYFlags"=dword:00000004
    "HiYFlags"=dword:00000004
    "SliderFriction"=dword:00000000
    "ActionType"=dword:00000002
    "SliderScale"=dword:00000080

    Awaiting for positive responses.

    Thanks
