SLATEBOOK 14: How disable -or at least lower sensitivity of built-in touchpad?

One of the most aggravating annoyances with this terrific laptop is that the touchpad is way too sensitive. When using the keyboard, users constantly trigger disruptions on the desktop because palms, sleeves ... sometimes it feels like all you have to do is wave over the touchpad and a windows fly off or cursors lose focus, etc. etc.
Isn't there some way to disable - or, at the very least, make less sensitive - the Slatebook touchpad?
So far, HP Chat advised to set the "Touch & Hold" setting (under Accessibility) to "Short".
Also, I found down under "Language & Input" these settings:
- Pointer Speed
- Palm Check
- Enable Click
Are any of these relevant to the built-in trackpad sensitivity issue?

Palm check is usually helpful with this problem.

  • Version 10 doesn't work with a web site I use constantly. How can I download a lower version and have the app appear on my phone?

    Have been using a lower version of firefox on my samsung galaxy phone to access [email protected] for quite some time. Since the upgrade to 10.0, I receive a server error everytime I try to access. Want to download a lower version, but app doesn't appear on my phone. How can I download a lower version and get the app to show up on my phone?

    Mandel is referring to what is called a "User Agent Faker' which tricks the website into thinking it is a different browser or version than it actually is. I sometimes would use this on my iPhone when I wanted to visit the full website of a site I was attempting to go to & it would only take me to the mobile version or state it was only compatible with say Internet Explorer, simply turn it on & select the browser and details you want it to report and it will spoof that browser & you'll be on your way.

  • How do I download a lower version of skype for my iphone 2g?

    How do I download a lower version of skype for my iphone 2g?

    This isn't official, but you would have to search your trash bin for a lower version of the application (backups on your computer move older versions of apps to the trash), then just delete the new app from your iDevice and iTunes, then drag the older app into iTunes and sync.

  • How to search for upper/lower case using string using JAVA!!!?

    -I am trying to write a program that will examine each letter in the string and count how many time the upper-case letter 'E' appears, and how many times the lower-case letter 'e' appears.
    -I also have to use a JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() to tell the user how many upper and lower case e's were in the string.
    -This will be repeated until the user types the word "Stop". 
    please help if you can
    what i have so far:
    [code]
    public class Project0 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
      String[] uppercase = {'E'};
      String[] lowercase = {'e'};
      String isOrIsNot, inputWord;
      while (true) {
       // This line asks the user for input by popping out a single window
       // with text input
       inputWord = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please enter a sentence");
       if ( inputWord.equals("stop") )
        System.exit(0);
       // if the inputWord is contained within uppercase or
       // lowercase return true
       if (wordIsThere(inputWord, lowercase))
        isOrIsNot = "Number of lower case e's: ";
       if (wordIsThere(inputword, uppercase))
         isOrIsNot = "number of upper case e's: ";
       // Output to a JOptionPane window whether the word is on the list or not
       JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "The word " + inputWord + " " + isOrIsNot + " on the list.");
    } //main
    public static boolean wordIsThere(String findMe, String[] theList) {
      for (int i=0; i<theList.length; ++i) {
       if (findMe.equals(theList[i])) return true;
      return false;
    } // wordIsThere
    } // class Lab4Program1
    [/code]

    So what is your question? Do you get any errors? If so, post them. What doesn't work?

  • How do I select a lower video resolution through iTunes store

    How do I select a lower video resolution through iTunes store?

    Settings > iTunes store > Video resolution.

  • In VB how do I pass my low and high limit results from a TestStand Step into the ResultList and how do I retrieve them from the same?

    I am retrieving high and low limits from step results in VB code that looks something like this:
    ' (This occurs while processing a UIMsg_Trace event)
    Set step = context.Sequence.GetStep(previousStepIndex, context.StepGroup)
    '(etc.)
    ' Get step limits for results
    Set oStepProperty = step.AsPropertyObject
    If oStepProperty.Exists("limits", 0&) Then
    dblLimitHigh = step.limits.high
    dblLimitLow = step.limits.low
    '(etc.)
    So far, so good. I can see these results in
    VB debug mode.
    Immediately after this is where I try to put the limits into the results list:
    'Add Limits to results
    call mCurrentExecution.AddExtraResult("Step.Limits.High", "UpperLimit")
    call mCurrentExecution.AddExtraResult("Step.Limits.Low", "LowerLimit")
    (No apparent errors here while executing)
    But in another section of code when I try to extract the limits, I get some of the results, but I do not get any limits results.
    That section of code occurs while processing a UIMsg_EndExecution event and looks something like this:
    (misc declarations)
    'Get the size of the ResultList array
    Call oResultList.GetDimensions("", 0, sDummy, sDummy, iElements, eType)
    'Step through the ResultList array
    For iItem = 0 To iElements - 1
    Dim oResult As PropertyObject
    Set oResult = oResultList.GetPropertyObject("[" & CStr(iItem) & "]", 0)
    sMsg = "StepName = " & oResult.GetValString("TS.StepName", 0) & _
    ", Status = " & oResult.GetValString("Status", 0)
    If oResult.Exists("limits", 0&) Then
    Debug.Print "HighLimit: " & CStr(oResult.GetValNumber("Step.Limits.High", 0))
    Debug.Print "LowLimit: " & CStr(oResult.GetValNumber("Step.Limits.Low", 0))
    End If
    '(handle the results)
    Next iItem
    I can get the step name, I can get the status, but I can't get the limits. The "if" statement above which checks for "limits" never becomes true, because, apparently the limit results never made it to the results array.
    So, my question again is how can I pass the low and high limit results to the results list, and how can I retrieve the same from the results list?
    Thanks,
    Griff

    Griff,
    Hmmmm...
    I use this feature all the time and it works for me. The only real
    difference between the code you posted and what I do is that I don't
    retrieve a property object for each TestStand object, instead I pass the
    entire sequence context (of the process model) then retrieve a property
    object for the entire sequence context and use the full TestStand object
    path to reference sub-properties. For example, to access a step's
    ResultList property called "foo" I would use the path:
    "Locals.ResultList[0].TS.SequenceCall.ResultList[].Foo"
    My guess is the problem has something to do with the object from which
    you're retrieving the property object and/or the path used to obtain
    sub-properties from the object. You should be able to break-point in the
    TestStand sequence editor immediately after the test step in question
    executes, then see the extra results in the step's ResultList using the
    context viewer.
    For example, see the attached sequence file. The first step adds the extra
    result "Step.Limits" as "Limits", the second step is a Numeric Limit (which
    will have the step property of "Limits") test and the third step pops up a
    dialog if the Limits property is found in the Numeric Limit test's
    ResultList. In the Sequence Editor, try executing with the first step
    enalbled then again with the first step skipped and breakpoint on the third
    step. Use the context viewer to observe where the Limits property is added.
    That might help you narrow in on how to specify the property path to
    retrieve the value.
    If in your code, you see the extra results in the context viewer, then the
    problem lies in how you're trying to retrieve the property. If the extra
    results aren't there, then something is wrong in how you're specifying them,
    most likely a problem with the AddExtraResult call itself.
    One other thing to check... its hard to tell from the code you posted... but
    make sure you're calling AddExtraResult on the correct execution object and
    that you're calling AddExtraResult ~before~ executing the step you want the
    result to show up for. Another programmer here made the mistake of assuming
    he could call AddExtraResult ~after~ the step executed and TestStand would
    "back fill" previously executed steps. Thats not the case. Also, another
    mistake he made was expecting the extra results to appear for steps that did
    not contain the original step properties. For example, a string comparison
    step doesn't have a "Step.Limits.High" property, so if this property is
    called out explicitly in AddExtraResult, then the extra result won't appear
    in the string comparison's ResultList entry. Thats why you should simply
    specify "Step.Limits" to AddExtraResul so the Limits container (whose
    contents vary depending on the step type) will get copied to the ResultList
    regardless of the step type.
    I call AddExtraResult at the beginning of my process model, not in a UI
    message handler, so there may be some gotcha from calling it that way. If
    all else fails, try adding the AddExtraResult near the beginning of your
    process model and see if the extra results appear in each step's ResultList.
    Good luck,

  • How do I make search case sensitive

    I created a search region of type "query" using a simpleSearchPanel. The instructions say the search is case-sensitive when running the page but it appears it is not. Can anyone tell me how to make the search case sensitive?

    Please check if you have followed these guidelines
    Rule 2 : If your view attribute is of type String(VARCHAR2), and if the item has the Selective Search Criteria property set to false, then OA Framework generates a case-insensitive simple WHERE clause based on the CRITERIA_CONDITION and the CRITERIA_VALUE.
