Bug Description
Got a thinkpad with a touchpad and KDE 17.04. The system settings input control panel recognizes it and offers that top-right clicking on the touchpad be registered as middle-click - as in X paste. However it is only recognized as a middle click intermittently, for the most part it registers as a left button click, which is the setting for the pad as a whole. I've set a two finger click to act as middle clich which works. But this contradicts almost 20 years of tochpad use/training.
So it does not work to set the different corner clicks...
