W700P scrolling doesn't work on all programs.

The arrows along side the widow seldom if ever work on programs.  The scroll bar does move up and down most of the time. 

 

A couple of programs will work with the arrow now and then and another program will not work at all.

 

Any fix for this or is a mouse the only option?

 

Thanks.

 

Might add that I tried a stylus with not much better results if any.

    It's a mix of 'practice makes perfect' and touchscreen calibration. With practice you will find that using the scroll bars is possible, even if you have large fingers. If the point of contact is too far off from where the computer thinks it is you can potentially help by calibrating the touchscreen. That will better allow you to affect where you think you should when you put your finger down.

     

    In the longer turn, more software will scroll correctly with swipes, but in the short term we just have to live with the ones that don't.
