TrackPoint Quick Menu

TrackPoint Quick Menu is a clickable app. It offers rapid access to functions, such as camera and microphone. You can adjust the function settings in this app.

Launch the TrackPoint Quick Menu

Double-tap the TrackPoint pointing stick to launch the TrackPoint Quick Menu. You can also set single-tapping as the launch gesture.

Note: If the TrackPoint Quick Menu does not pop up after you use the launch gesture, this case might be caused by the displacement of the TrackPoint pointing stick due to too much force applied on it. Wait 15 to 30 seconds and try again.

To change the settings, do the following:

The TrackPoint Quick Menu is enabled by default. Press Fn+G to disable or enable the tapping gesture. When disabled, it cannot be launched by tapping the TrackPoint pointing stick.
