Would the touchpad be usable for precise design work (e.g. working with pen tools/bezier curves in vector programs)?

I find the touch pad to be accurate and usable on Manjaro, but I only use it to move around the terminal, IDE, and VMs.

I am not sure. I almost never do anything graphical, and I mainly work from the keyboard.

Does highlighting text (click, dragging the cursor over text) work well? That's all it needs to do, point click, and be able to control the dragging.

In my experience frequently not. I couldn’t highlight text in terminals sometimes.

And the | key isn’t functional without a systemd patch.
