SUMMARY
I'm using Fusuma to assign 3-finger swipe to switch desktops (on X11). This no longer works. I don't know if this is an issue with Plasma or Fusuma.

I switched to Wayland and found it works by default, without Fusuma. However, the animation goes in the wrong direction: if I swipe right to go to the right desktop, the screen should move to the left. Instead, it animates in the right direction. (The animation is correct when running qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin org.kde.KWin.nextDesktop).

1. 3-finger swipe set to switch between desktops
2. swipe
3. X11: doesn't work anymore; Wayland: animated in wrong direction


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: KDE neon User Edition
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.17.0
Qt Version: 6.9.1
Kernel Version: 6.14.0-29-generic (64-bit)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When on Wayland, there are a lot more input-related issues, such as 2-finger scroll often not working, espanso not working and text selection with shift+arrows is choppy.
