Hello everyone,
I am using MX 18 on a Thinkpad T460. Everything works perfectly.
I just want to enable two finger right click from the trackpad. Seems like by default, right click is associated with three fingers and whatever is supposed to happen on a middle button / mouse wheel click is associated with two finger tapping.
How can I swap this behaviour? Thanks in advance.

Re: MX 18 - Two finger double click
IIRC, you can do this by modifying /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/synaptics.conf and changing the "TapButton" parameters. You would probably want to reverse buttons 2 and 3.
here's the original
so try modifying the TabButton2 and TapButton3 lines by flipping their values
log out and log in after the change (I don't think a reboot will be required but it might).
