You can find the “enable tap-to-click” option by pressing the toolbar icon and then choosing Settings and then System. This allows you to simply tap on any link or icon on the screen, much the way you would with a typical Windows notebook touchpad. You can emulate a right-click by pressing with two fingers instead of one (or just pushing down with one finger while the other hovers on the touchpad).īut if you’re not a fan of pressing down on the touchpad, you can enable a tap-to-click option by digging around in the system settings. That means you can press down on the entire touchpad to register a left-click action. While there are no left or right buttons, the touchpad is clickable. The Google Cr-48 laptop had one, as do the new Samsung Series 5 and Acer AC700 Chromebooks.

It looks like the oversized touchpad without any physical buttons is going to be a staple of Chromebooks.
