I have a track pad and I can’t figure out why I can’t flick up and move down

You need to go in to systems preference if I am not mistaken it should be
enabled by default. However I don't believe it is enabled by default in

Unless a applescript can be made to do the send function [and I've no idea if

Go to Vo Utilities mender, down the table to Commanders, over to the Track Pad

Even if you are though, you have to rotate 2 fingers clockwise to enable
