The Thinkpad T480s has a "clickpad": a touchpad where (parts of) the touchpad itself is pressable instead of having physical dedicated buttons.
Running X.org 7.7, there is a horizontal stripe at the bottom of the touchpad that acts as the mouse buttons 1, 2, and 3 (i.e. left, middle and right); basically it looks like this:
+-----------------+
| |
| |
| |
| |
|11111 22222 33333|
|11111 22222 33333|
+-----------------+
How do I disable button 2 and reallocate that area to between buttons 1 and 3? I.e. I would like the following layout:
+-----------------+
| |
| |
| |
| |
|11111111 33333333|
|11111111 33333333|
+-----------------+
Note this question is different from mtrack: how to get vertical button zones? since I am trying to do this in the context of XInput, not mtrack. Also, the hardware is not Synaptics.
The hardware in question is identified by XInput as
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech TrackPoint id=12 [slave pointer (2)]
