Hello,

It sounds like this would require a code change, at the very least, so
you may want to open a case with Lenovo.

Under Linux/X11, enabling TP scrolling makes it so that while holding down
the middle mouse button, the trackpoint sends mouse-wheel messages to the
window under the mouse cursor.

In Windows 7, it seems that it does not use scroll messages, but rather a
helper app finds the nearest scrollbar and scrolls it up and down. This has
two issues: (a) In Vim, where a vertically-split window puts the left-window
scrollbar on the left and the right-window scrollbar on the right, I can
only scroll the right-hand window. (b) In any app, it will scroll to within
one line of the end of the window, but not all the way down. This is very
irritating.

Anyone know if it can be set to act like Linux/X11 where it will act exactly
like a mouse wheel rather than somewhat like one?

This is on my X120e running Windows 7 Professional.
