[SOLVED] How to activate touchpad scroll function?

Hi to all.

I just installed the latest Zorin OS version on my Acer Aspire 5730z. Unlike other Ubuntu based distribution, the touchpad scroll does not work.
I mean the scroll side (placed on the right side of the touchpad) does not act like a scroll area while the upper/lower right corners of the touchpad just do other functions when pressed, respectively copying the latest selected words in a text and open the right-click popup window.

How can I assign that area the scroll function?

Thanks,
regards.

Thank you so much for your reply!
It worked for me! I just had to set "scroll-method" to "edge-scrolling". Wonderful!
Thank you so much!

Regards.
