- p12tic 6y agoPovilas from the linked blog post. Indeed this is a valid point, thanks. On the X server applications will get touchpad gestures regardless of whether one is running Plasma or GNOME. However, workspace-wide gestures are not implemented in either on X yet. On Wayland the display server is the one which handles workspace-wide gestures. Additionally, all events go through it to the applications. Perfect touchpad gesture support needs support in both. As far as I know Mutter (GNOME) handles both parts already and KWin (Plasma) currently handles neither. Implementing touchpad gestures on Plasma would fall within this initiative, I will most likely work on that at some point in the future.

- solarkraft 6y agoI'm not entirely sure if it's built into Plasma, but I remember having a (hacky, not with direct response) workspace switching gesture on Manjaro (Wayland, of course).
