[mrmajik45]

I browse through Github alot. On windows I could've easily scrolled sideways by having 2 fingers on the touchpad and moving left and right but it seems linux doesn't allow that? Pls help.

hi mrmajik45!

I think what you want to do can be found in menu> preferences> Mouse and Touchpad> Touchpad tab> Scrolling> Scrolling method (drop menu) and select "Two-finger scrolling" then for horizontal function click to set the "Horizontal scrolling" button to On and see if that returns the function you desire. There are also other touchpad drivers I've read about in the recent past and can search for some of those if the above doesn't do what you want.

Hope this helps!
