            Bug ID: 105631
           Summary: Trackpad Went From Soft Button Areas to ClickFinger
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: libinput
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: keithcu at gmail.com

I've been using libinput for a year+ on my Synaptics TrackPad and it's been
working great except suddenly now right-click is gone.

I can right-click with two fingers, but I've been using softbutton areas since
2013 and I'd rather not, and my other TrackPad on Windows is configured with
softbutton areas as well.

Here is my device info:

Device:           Synaptics TM3066-002
Kernel:           /dev/input/event17
Group:            6
Seat:             seat0, default
Size:             87x57mm
Capabilities:     pointer gesture
Tap-to-click:     disabled
Tap-and-drag:     enabled
Tap drag lock:    disabled
Left-handed:      disabled
Nat.scrolling:    disabled
Middle emulation: disabled
Calibration:      n/a
Scroll methods:   *two-finger edge 
Click methods:    *button-areas clickfinger 
Disable-w-typing: enabled
Accel profiles:   none
Rotation:         n/a

I think people who got used to the old libinput and Synaptics behavior will be
confused by the change in default behavior. Is there a way to switch it? I
don't understand what the asterisk means by the Click methods.
