I also uninstalled/reinstalled the "Tablet PC Features" option in Change/remove Windows Features to no effect (at all even when they're uninstalled my touch worked as it does now).
Lenovo x200 multitouch drivers#
How can I get original, unmolested Wacom/Windows drivers on my PC so I can use the Windows 7 multitouch features properly?
Lenovo x200 multitouch install#
It DID work like normal after the install but before I restarted. I tried using the original Wacom driver from their website but that driver started showing the exact same problem after restarting. The ThinkPad X200 Tablet (Multitouch) (2,000 direct), if you havent already guessed, adds multitouch capabilities. How can I get back the Windows 7 default multitouch features? There's lots of "Thinkpad X drivers" and "Lenovo X software" entries in Programs and Features but none appear to relate to Touch. The "Flicks" and "Touch" settings no longer appear in the Control Panel, I can't even set single finger panning, my finger acts like a mouse cursor and nothing else. I'm sure it's some weird "value added" garbage by Lenovo or Wacom. I've just updated all my drivers/ect to the latest versions now, the problem still occurs.
Lenovo x200 multitouch update#
Some applications, such as Microsoft's own OneNote, allow you to leave your text as handwritten but still search through it as if it were typed.I'm using a Lenovo X200 Tablet with multitouch, and somewhere along the line an update replaced the amazing Windows 7 mutlitouch features (flicks, panning ect) with almost non-existent custom "features". Pen-input is also used for handwriting recognition in Windows 7 – there's no scrawling into the TIP (tablet input panel) with a fingertip – and while accuracy of conversion isn't 100-percent, it's still better than XP Tablet Edition's first attempts. This works with the included (battery-free) stylus, automatically shutting off the finger-touch layer when the pen nib is nearby and capable of controlling the mouse pointer by hovering the stylus over the display surface together with tapping for selection and launch. What you do get, though, is both finger- and pen-input, since the capacitive layer sits on top of a Wacom active digitizer.
Unlike the T400s, however, the X200 Tablet doesn't support more than two fingers of multitouch control, a limitation it seems of the Ntrig capacitive panel Lenovo have used. On the T400s, in contrast, we found it often seemed counter-intuitive to lift our hands from the keyboard and reach over to tap the display. That means the keyboard and trackpoint stick are out of reach, and you're already tapping at the display with your fingers.
SimpleTap makes far more sense on the convertible X200 Tablet than it does on the T400s, though, simply because for at least part of the time you'll be using the notebook in slate orientation. The launcher wizard is clever enough to pick a default icon – whether for an app, a file, a folder or a website – though you can override this with your own preference, and then you can rearrange the icons as you see fit (or allow them to auto-arrange). Triggered by tapping a red on-screen shortcut button, SimpleTap includes volume and brightness control, entering sleep mode, switching on and off the keyboard light and activating the webcam as standard however you can also add any application or shortcut, much as you would a desktop shortcut in Windows. Like on the T400s, Lenovo have introduced SimpleTap with the multitouch screen option on the X200s, the company's shortcut menu and finger-friendly launcher.
