    Hello all,

    I got an acer aspire 6920 and i got the synaptics multi-touch gestures working on there. One of the most annoying thing is that it doesn't have double finger tap! I'm a hybrid user of mac and PC so i use the double finger tap for my right-click gestures. Does anyone know if there's a way to enable this on the driver?

    I know there's the two-finger-scroll application but pretty awful when used in combination of the synaptics double finger scroll. It doesn't sense the double finger tap properly at all.

    Here's the trick to accomplish what you want to do.
    1. Enable two finger scroll in synaptics driver
    2. Disable scrolling type in the scrolling section of twofingerscroll program
    3. Under tapping section, select "one + one finger" as right button.

    With these settings, it should work flawlessly.
