3 years ago In order to implement this, we would need this option to be exposed in GNOME Settings Daemon. Please report an issue upstream in GitLab: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/-/issues

Feature
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Describe the solution you'd like
The solution I would like is the feature described here at 5.) https://support.apple.com/guide/bootcamp-control-panel/set-trackpad-options-bcmpa82153f3/mac

Existing work

Describe alternatives you've considered
I considered installing a third party tool to fix it (but didn't yet).
