Oh hell yeah, three/four finger touchpad gestures. Been wondering why tf I can’t do that on my laptop.
Edit: ah 3d gestures. The little hand showed 3 fingers, so maybe it’s kind of implementing it in the background as part of that fix? Or maybe it’s already a thing in kde and I’m just dumb lol.
If anyone is running kde on a laptop, and is able to use more than 2 fingers at once for touchpad gestures, please let me know how.
KWin had four finger touchpad gestures since 2017. If they don’t work for you in the Wayland session, your touchpad most likely simply doesn’t support detecting more than two fingers
Tocuhpad worked fine with 3+ fingers when it was still running Windows (before I put Linux on it).
I’ll look into using KWin for this. As I said in the other reply, I’m using Wayland, so if that’s a feature from X, that could be why I can’t do it currently.
No, they’re not a feature from X, quite the opposite. They’re Wayland only.
If the hardware works, you might want to check
sudo libinput debug-events
for whether or not the driver works as well. If it does report gesture events with 3 and 4 fingers and KWin doesn’t react to them, please open a bug report at bugs.kde.org about itI’ll look into it, thanks.
Wow this looks great, surprisingly polished for KDE (and I say this as someone who enjoys KDE)
I’m sorry I just can’t bring myself to watch a video whose thumbnail looks like that.
What’s wrong with it? There’s no cringey exaggerated expressions or clickbait. It’s very functional
Why? It looks fine and clearly states what the video is about
Watch it mf
