How can I create draglock feature and release automatically after 1sec

Hello guys,

I used to have a laptop with touchpad driver allows me to lift my finger during dragging a file or selecting text and put my finger back and continue dragging or selecting. If I want to release the file, I should lift my finger for more than one second, if I put my finger before one second ends continue dragging the file.

Now I have thinkpad lenovo w541 laptop with Synaptics Pointing Device Driver, does not contain this feature. I guess this depends on the touchpad driver installed. Is there any way to activate, or created this feature using any program or script. I don't want to use Lock drag feature in windows because I must click again to release.

Any help will be appreciated
Thanks

You could try this - I've not tried it personally.

Back up the registry/set a restore point before experimenting.

Thanks dalchina for your reply.
Unfortunately this didn't work, I don't have Synaptics at all in this registry path but I created it and followed the steps and didn't work.

I hope someone has another solution.

Thanks for the info and for this light and handy software.
I found in my registry these 4 paths:

Code:

...\SynTP\StickPS2TM3053
...\SynTP\StickSMBTM3053
...\SynTP\TouchPadPS2TM3053
...\SynTP\TouchPadSMB2cTM3053

Each has 'Gestures'.
The first two gestures has the value 32
The last two gestures has the value 3

I tried to change all, one by one, to the value 7 as suggested in the link you sent in your first reply.
I got different responses, but for the last path it did ClickLock but doesn't release only once I click/tap again, same as the classic feature of windows mouse setting. It doesn't release automatically without tapping/clicking.

Any further suggestions !
