Three fingers drag is buggy on the new trackpad.
Control strip is buggy, especially when using external monitors. The software is not able to adequately deal with external monitors being connected and disconnected throughout the day.
- metafunctor 10y agoAnother anecdote: I have two LG monitors on my desk, and frequently connect and disconnect the laptop during the day. I've had no issues with this, the touch bar, or with the trackpad.
- jordache 10y agoreally? You've never had 3 finger drag being registered as a two finger scroll? Compared to my MBA, i can 100% reliability input 3 fingers vs 2. on the new MBP, that reliability rate is about 80%
- metafunctor 10y agoReally, it does work 100% for me. I just tried it quite a few times. The only way I can make a three-finger drag register as a two-finger scroll is when the third finger is actually not on the trackpad.
- refrigerator 10y agoI've found this too - connecting an external monitor messes up some of my Touchbar functionality until I restart the whole laptop.
- jordache 10y agoanother solution is to run this command in terminal: killall ControlStrip
- ninkendo 10y agoI've noticed this too with the control strip. Eventually the whole thing goes black except for maybe one "button" worth of area, like it missed a redraw or something. Tapping on a black area where you know a button is will redraw that button but you have to close and reopen the lid to get the whole thing normal again. It also had a kernel panic displayed on the control strip (which is a separate OS) the moment I turned it on for the first time. It was kinda hilarious, the panic text was written sideways on the control strip, and since it's so thin there was a line break every 4-5 characters.
