Forgive my poor English and related knowledge, please...

  • What's the differences between ClickFinger and TapButton?
  • What's the exact meaning of the various button numbers? ( I know button 1 is a normal click, button 2 is a middle click when button 3 is a right click, BUT, what in the world are button 4 to 15 standing for? )

Any answer can be useful for me, thanks!

  1. TapButton is for tapping on area designed for finger movement, ClickFinger is for physical buttons, or buttons emulation zone at the bottom of trackpad
    Please check:
    https://github.com/p2rkw/xf86-input-mtrack/blob/master/include/mconfig.h#L153
    https://github.com/p2rkw/xf86-input-mtrack/blob/master/include/mconfig.h#L161
    and ButtonZonesEnable section in readme.

  2. You can bind actions to these extra keys with: easystroke, xbindkeys, xte, evrouter, or something else.
    Here are few examples how to do so: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/All_Mouse_Buttons_Working#easystroke

Easystroke is my favourite one, because it recognize gestures.
Here's my setup: rynbrd/xf86-input-mtrack#91 (comment)
