[Senya247]

(im on ubuntu 20)it says that it is running in the background but when i tested a few shortcuts but none worked. Any idea why?. I tried writing the shortcuts with capitals and no capital, but still no luck

here is my shortcuts config file (i tested my shortcut on left3. right now it's supposed to minimize everything, but nothing happens)

left3  = Ctrl+Super+D
left4  = ctrl+alt+shift+Right
right3 = ctrl+alt+Left
right4 = ctrl+alt+shift+Left
up3 = Super+S
up4    = ctrl+alt+shift+Down
down3  = ctrl+alt+Up
down4  = ctrl+alt+shift+Up

# #Tweak threshold depending on the sensitivity of your touchpad.
## Make this higher to lessen sensitivity.

threshold = 0.0

# #Uncomment below to enable mouse gestures (3 fingers)

; mouse3 = move              # just move mouse along with the cursor

; mouse3 = scroll_reverse    # reverse scroll (experimental)

I found a possible solution. 1: open dconf editor 2: search for wayland 3: you'll find an option called "xwayland-allow-grabs" activate it 4: swipe away :dancers:

This solution is not working for me. Running Ubuntu 20.04.

I found that left3, right3, left4, and right4 do not work at all, and block the other gestures. The up and down gestures kind of work, but they are extremely broken - mine are stuck assigned to the super key, even though comfortable-swipe status shows them to be updated to other hotkeys. comfortable-swipe debug shows that it's tracking my fingers perfectly. Rebooting had no effect.
