| right-clicking with trackpad? In Parallels Workstation, the MacBook's right-click option (two fingers on pad, then click) works beautifully. It doesn't, of course, if booted directly into Windows through BootCamp. Is there a workaround of some sorts? Can one emulate a right-click in Windows using a MacBook or MacBook Pro? I've connected a mouse with three buttons right now, but that's not an option for when I'm on the go...

| I would assume that since the trackpad and button appear to windows as simply a trackpad and button that it would require a software solution. The "two-fingers right-click, scrolling, etc." thing is software-based in Mac OS X, so I would assume that a software solution would be required in Windows as well. Beyond that, sorry I couldn't be of more help!

| Yeah. I'd hope Apple themselves would add a driver solution for that for Windows. Although... Maybe there would be a solution by installing a different driver for the trackpad. But I don't want to mess too much with drivers. After all, I bought a _Mac_, haven't I. :P

| Hate to sound dumb here , but do you download the app into the windows partition or osx one? I'm hoping this may help my sticky trackpad problem. |

| That wouldn't solve something like that, actually. It's simply a software solution to add another mouse button by using a modifier key.
