Description Andy Lutomirski 2017-01-21 17:42:10 UTC
libinput has an API libinput_device_config_tap_set_drag_enabled().  Please add a way (via the Mouse & Touchpad control or gnome-tweak-tool) to use this API to turn off tag-and-drag under Wayland.

Under Xorg, it could be done with a snippet like this:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
        MatchIsTouchpad "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "libinput"
	Option "TappingDrag" "false"
EndSection

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2017-11-16 15:45:07 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2017-12-12 10:48:57 UTC
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 4 Andy Lutomirski 2018-05-03 22:41:39 UTC
This is still missing in Fedora 28, or, if it's somehow fixed, I can't find it.  The setting isn't present in the Mouse & Touchpad control, nor is it in gnome-tweaks.

Comment 5 Peter Hutterer 2018-05-03 22:50:10 UTC
I usually check these things with gsettings because it's a more reliable indicator of what is really there (once you remember the commands, anyway):

$ gsettings list-keys org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad
send-events
natural-scroll
tap-to-click
two-finger-scrolling-enabled
left-handed
click-method
speed
tap-and-drag
edge-scrolling-enabled
disable-while-typing
$ gsettings range org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad tap-and-drag
type b

So this should work, though I haven't tested it:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad tap-and-drag false

Comment 6 Andy Lutomirski 2018-05-09 19:54:36 UTC
That does work.  Thanks!  I guess I should file a bug against gnome-tweak to ask for a UI.

Comment 7 Peter Hutterer 2018-05-10 01:30:04 UTC
Or we just punt this bug over directly :)

Comment 11 Andy Lutomirski 2019-05-28 20:50:26 UTC
Hi, gnome-tweaks people -- this feature is still missing in F30.

Comment 12 Peter Hutterer 2019-10-16 04:44:32 UTC
There's an upstream MR for this feature here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/merge_requests/36
With what looks like some chance that it may get accepted into the control center. I'm going to close this bug here because let's be honest, the only way this will make it into Fedora is if it gets into upstream so you're better off lobbying in that upstream bug :)
