Hi Ben, thanks for replying. I managed to get around that after delving more in the Touchpad settings, tab Taps where I set “Tap to click” One finger: Left button, Two fingers: Right button, Three fingers: Middle button and in tab Enable/Disable Touchpad: I only left ticked “Disable taps and scrolling only”. I’m getting really fond of OM. Have a nice day
