in the old gsynaptics there was an option to adjust the area used for
the vertical and horizontal scrolling making it wider or thinner, this
is no longer available and now my scrolling part of the touchpad is the
*very *edge of the pad, making it very difficult to get it to work, will
this functionality be put back into the new version?
