Strokeit on newer touchpads ("clickpads")

Recently manufacturers inspired by apple have started making the "buttonless" touchpad, or more commonly known as the clickpad.
Here are some pictures of it

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to use strokeit the tradational way (right-click+drag)? Or am I screwed?

I don't like using two fineger. I usually use my (right) thumb to right-click and my (right) index finnger to drag. I need to make sure this is possible on those annoying clickpads..

Does anyone have any feedback

From my experience, most of these new touchpads, while not having a visible button, will respond to pressing down firmly in the lower corners; lower right for right mouse button for example.

My wife's laptop has the same thing, but if you press firmly in the lower right corner, it's the same as a right click and you can draw on the touchpad while holding/pressing the corner.

EDIT: After looking at those pictures, I'm not sure they support it...but it's worth a try.

I tried it on a lenovo T540P. It is quite crappy. The new clickpads are going to kill the strokeit experience. Why does everyone have to follow Apple. I for one hate the "buttonless clickpads". Who's the genius who came up with the idea? And who decided to follow this genius?? Now almost all new laptops have the crappy touchpad. It seems the days of enjoying strokeit are over.

One solution is to configure left-click as the gesture button. Then we can do tap-release-tap-drag to get gestures without having to worry about those weird buttons.

xGestures on Mac just allows one to use a modifier key to gesture on a trackpad. No button click needed.
