Issue:
Nothing I set the gestures (3 finger swipe up or down for example) to do, does that thing. The above is just an example. I really just want all 3 and 4 finger gestures to just stop and not do anything. I also don't want pinch gestures to work. I do want to be able to two finger scroll though. I basically don't want any advanced functionality from the touchpad other then scrolling.

What does happen on 3 finger swipe up or down is to switch virtual desktops, no matter what I config libinput-gestures to do. This is in KDE/kwin somewhere and I've seen internet reports of people saying that it can't get fixed (at least right now).

2 finger scroll works as intended as well as single pointer. I believe tap clicking works too but I have it disabled in settings.

I get no errors anywhere I can see, I also have no logs to indicate that something is wrong. I installed from extra not AUR, but they look like the same version.

Thanks for your help with this.

You can't overwrite KDE (or GNOME etc) native gestures using this program. Is that what you are trying to do?

Yes that what I was hoping to do. Thanks for the answer.
