SideTrack 1.6 PowerBook/iBook/MacBook Trackpad Enhancer UPdated

2760
SideTrack is a replacement driver for Apple MacBook, MacBook Pro, PowerBook and iBook trackpads. With SideTrack installed your standard trackpad becomes a powerful multi-button scrolling mouse.


  • Leave your external mouse at home and take full control over your trackpad:

  • Vertical scrolling at left or right edge of pad.

  • Horizontal scrolling at top or bottom edge of pad.

  • Map hardware button to left or right click.

  • Map trackpad taps to no action, left click, left click drag (with or without drag lock), or right click.

  • Map trackpad corner taps to mouse buttons 1-6 or simulated keystrokes.

  • Extensive control over accidental input filtering.



SideTrack is multiuser aware and fully compatible with Mac OS X fast user switching (FUS). Every user on your laptop can have different settings depending on their needs.

SideTrack supports most Apple laptops, including MacBooks, MacBook Pros, PowerBooks and iBooks. For specific supported models please see the FAQ.

Extended control over the trackpad button and tap gestures. Use trackpad taps for left click, drag gestures, or right click. Complete scrollwheel mouse emulation with customizable scrolling speed. Place your scroll zones on either side of the pad, or both sides simultaneously.

Turn the corners of your trackpad into independent tap actions. Use the corner zones to emulate up to a 6 button mouse or generate custom keystrokes. Customize SideTrack's sensitivity and accuracy. Calibrate to your own trackpad style and adjust filtering to reduce accidental taps while typing. Choose from several mouse acceleration options.
