Set it up as it should be. Then, on the trackpad, do a 2 finger
clockwise rotate to enable the trackpad commander.
It does not matter the commander is already enabled in VO Utility.
Apparently, the VO keys are locked. This is noted as an El Capitan bug.

Hi,
Do you have the track pad commander turned on?
You can find it under the vo utility(vo f8), then go down to commanders, pick
the track pad tab, and then go through there and set it up as you like.
To turn on track pad commander after you set it up, hit the vo keys and then

Hi.
In Pages, when I misspell a word, I do not receive the "Mispelled"

Hang on. Did you say you’re using Yosemite and also the new Magic Trackpad 2?
This is relevant because the requirements for the newest Magic Trackpad include

Remember that you have to actually move the splitter to 100 percent to
actually collapse it and it’s the splitter directly to the right of the

If we can learn to spot the button pushers and ignore them, those

In Windows, yes. But as I said, if you cannot open more than one,
