Two finger tappers: how long did it take you to get used to it?

[phooi]

Didn't take me long to learn the 2 finger scroll/right click. I find it much more intuitive than using the scroll section of the PC trackpad and more convenient than using the right mouse button on the trackpad.

I find that if you approach the trackpad the way you want to use the function (ie. scroll vs. right click), you'll find that the trackpad reacts appropriately. Thus, I brush the trackpad with 2 fingers for scroll or hold and move it around for additional scrolling. The right click is 2 fingers and click. Sometimes, I have to tap more than once (which I think is Apple's way of double checking).

More practice for you! Good luck.

I was used to two finger scrolling on my PB and now I've got my new MBP I've been trying two finger tapping instead of ctrl tap. Haven't got the hang of scrolling without opening the contextual menus yet though.

I noticed one or two people said in posts that the same thing happens to them. Is it something you get used to and doesn't happen after a while? I'm not heavy handed or anything.

For me, I've got a MacBook, and I suddenly tripped over the feature of scrolling with two fingers by accident, but since then I've used it almost all the time
