    Reduce windows snap sensitivity


    I would like a slider, like the mouse double click sped etc. to reduce the "stickyness" of snap windows.

    Windows snap keeps hijacking my attempts to drag windows from one display to the other, and I still want to use windows snap, but would like to be able to make it so that I have to be more intentional with my attempts to snap a window.


    Is there some way to do this now?

    :)

  3. Accessibility feature of Windows Snap in Windows 10

    Hello,

    The mouse sensitivity while performing a Snap works in tandem with how it works in Windows. So, changing the mouse sensitivity will not impact the Snap feature functionality separately.

    So to answer to your query, there is no such dedicated control/settings to change how mouse gestures will work for Snap feature in Windows.

    However, a work around in this case is to use keyboard shortcuts:

    • Windows + Left Arrow
    • Windows + Right Arrow
    This works to snap windows to the left and right half of the screen respectively.

    Hope the recommendation is helpful.

  4. Reduce windows snap sensitivity

    how can I reduce the touchscreen sensitivity on windows 10?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community. Let me assist you.

    I suggest you to try the below steps to adjust the touch sensitivity of the system.

    Pen and Touch settings:

    • Type Pen and Touch in the Search bar.
    • Go to Pen and Touch settings.
    • Depending on your device, you may see a variety of tabs, such as
      Pen Options
      , Flicks, or Touch.
    • You can adjust the sensitivity of your touch device by adjusting sliders located in these tabs. For example, to adjust the sensitivity of a double-tap on your touch device, on the
      Touch tab, tap Double-tap, and then tap
      Settings
      .
    • Drag the sliders to change the sensitivity. You can test your new settings by double-tapping the graphic at the bottom of window.


    Calibrate the touch display:

    • Type Calibrate on the Search bar.
    • Tap on Calibrate the screen for pen or touch input.
    • Select the Calibrate button, and follow the tool’s instructions.


    Note: Cleaning the screen can improve touch sensitivity. Most PC manufacturers recommend turning off the PC and using a microfiber cloth, available at most electronic stores.

    Any barriers between your fingers and the display, including gloves, a protective case, sheet or film, or even water or lotion on your hands, can also impair touch sensitivity. If any of these conditions apply to you, try testing the device without
    such conditions.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.
