Hi all,
I would like to enable on my touchpad a functionality similar to the "ClickLock" on Windows. With this feature pressing a button for a certain interval makes the click locked in the sense that I can for example drag windows around without the need to keep the button physically pressed.
I am currently using Gnome 3 on Wayland and libinput (not xf86-input-libinput). I was not even able to understand if such a feature exists in libinput, and if it does how to enable it in Gnome. Does anybody know?
The Libinput wiki does not contain the information I need, and it seems to be tuned mainly for xf86-input-libinput.

Sorry, may be stating the obvious but by default, libinput has touchpad Drag Lock enabled. Double tap (within configured timeout) but don't release your finger on the title-bar of a window and you can drag it around. You don't need to press any button and you can do it with one finger. Works under Wayland and Xorg. Is this what you mean?

What I would like is to be able to release my finger but still drag around the window.

What I described above is using a single finger, to initiate and then action the drag. How are you proposing to drag the window without even a single finger?

It seems I did not explain myself well. If you look at this link they show the ClickLock functionality on Windows. That is what I would like to have.
