  • These are the type of answers I am finding since you indicate the older synaptics drivers offer a more suitable icon than the newer drivers would be to contact SYNAPTICS because the icon isw hard coded intor their drivers. They might have an add on or even a different driver that would make things more palatable for you. synaptics.com/support

  • no such option please mention this in the answers section if it worked for you,maybe this works. Yes I know how to change the icon but by changing icon the whole layout of icons changes(even when not scrolling no option specific for scroll icon change)
