Hyprland - Touchpad edge scrolling

[Barbas]

Hi all!

I’ve recently installed hyprland, learning and enjoying it so far.

One of the challenge is to activate “Edge scrolling” for the synaptics touchpad of my laptop.

The option “scroll_method = edge” in the config file is not accepted.

Anyone got it right?

Thanks a lot!

I have the same issue after installing Hyprland on my laptop. Adding the above string results in an error message.

Hi,

at last I solved it. For me it was necessary to insert the line

scroll_method=edge

in the

input {

block in the hyprland.conf file

and not in the

gesture {

block as I had tried earlier.

Hope this helps.

good work, now figure out palm detect for me too while you’re at it (i’m kidding, if it wasn’t obvious), i’ve been procrastinating it for half a year!

Actually that seems like it’s handled by libinput, and libinput was made by the wayland devs so any sort of configuration options for it are buried 6 feet under bad documentation somewhere.
