Ha, so there is indeed something missing in the settings? I've also looked through all the settings and searched for a way to configure the touchpad gestures at all. Couldn't find anything. Would be very happy to learn about how to do this on Wayland. (On X I've just used the nice program Touchégg and could configure it the way I liked, even on a per app basis.)

I'm running Fedora (well Nobara specifically) with Wayland. However, you can get nice touch gestures on most any laptop with X11 using a tool like Touchégg if they are not already working. I've used tools like this for almost a decade to get nice multitouch gestures under X11 with great success.

I use touchégg for touch screen and touch pad gestures on my 2 in 1. Works really smooth. To configure it easily I further suggest touché

elementary OS uses touchegg to handle touchpad gestures, and you can configure it anyw ay you pleaase: https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg. The options available by default in elementary OS gestures are kinda rudimentary, so I also recommend https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.joseexposito.touche to more easily define them the exact way you like, and to also maybe even set-up custom gestures for different applications.

If I'm not mistaken, you can only enable hibernation if you've set up a swap partition on your disk. As for the touchpad gestures, you might want to take a look at these - https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.joseexposito.touche

gnome-shell-extended-gestures: this one requires Wayland, not sure if this is okay or not

I don't know where you can exactly read up on that. I guess go to the extension's github page and ask there. Here how it looks in the extension's settings.

There are some Github projects that provide both utilities in one (Ex. fusuma and fusuma-plugin-sendkey) and even some projects that already have the browser back/forward integrated in Wayland (Ex. gnome-shell-extended-gestures).

Gnome 3 has gesture support. I don't think many are built in, certainly not as many as mac OS gives you out of the box. But you can go wild: https://github.com/mpiannucci/gnome-shell-extended-gestures

Hi, before G40 I use this extension to manage swipe gestures, now with native gnome gestures I have some problem to switch from application to another application in the same workspace; is there a way to use two fingers horizontal swipe for emulate the ALT-TAB function? Thx

I was thinking of this one: https://github.com/mpiannucci/gnome-shell-extended-gestures. The other person’s link appears to be a better fit though.

This is really dependent on your desktop environment. For example, this is a GNOME extension that adds extra touchpad gestures.

Are you using X11 or Wayland? The README.md for that extension says that it only works on Wayland (just like Gnome's built-in support for touchpad gestures).

Also looking for an answer to this. I've tried gnome-shell-extended-gestures and it lets me map a multitouch gesture to "back", but only 3 or 4 finger gestures. No luck there for the 2 finger horizontal history controls I'm used to with Windows and ChromeOS.
