So I'd like to disable "drag continues at touchpad edge" and enable "require additional tap to stop dragging". Or just anything that requires precision. This mechanism is stupendously irritating when trying to pixel-precise drag a trackbar, or when doing some I know dragging continues when your finger reaches the touchpad edges, but that I find greatly irritating because it looses all sense of precision. Some people found it annoying and disabled it, but I welcomed it. That's what it used to be like in the Windows 7 era with most touchpads. Release finger and perform one addditional tap to stop dragging.(repeat steps 4 & 5 as many times as desired).Reposition finger and continue dragging by flicking the touchpad some more.Please click “ Accept as Solution” if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.
