Configuring Trackpad limited

[_lemonsci]

Hey Mac-Community,
I've had a Macbook Pro for ages and as for most users its configured as to my needs. At work, I got a new Macpro with MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 now and to my shock the configuration of the trackpad seems limited. With my Mac for example I can mark multiple items only by swiping over them with three fingers, which is a function I cannot chose with this new Mac. There are more examples like this. Is there any way to avoid or overcome this seemingly new (?) limitation?

Hope anyone can help. So far, I'm pretty helpless in using this new Mac

I would try better touch tool app for complete control over your input devices.

Three finger lives in the accessibility preferences, not the trackpad preferences. Simply note your settings at home and duplicate them at work.
