Touchpad works differently on GNOME to how it does on Plasma

Hi,
I want to switch from GNOME to Plasma, as I prefer Plasma to GNOME, but when I install plasma-desktop and log onto it with a new account I created, The track pad functions differently to how it functions in GNOME.
Also, other Linux Distributions I have tried on this laptop like Ubuntu, and Kubuntu, have the same track pad issue that Plasma on Arch has.

I prefer the GNOME on Arch track pad right click over what all other desktop environment's and distributions have.

Is there a way I can make my track pad function like how it does on GNOME on Plasma?

Thanks in advance, tobfos
(:

EDIT: Just discovered, that the differences between Arch with Plasma, and GNOME is that GNOME is using 'Fingers' mouse click emulation. When I switch it to 'Area' in GNOME Tweaks, it acts like how it does with Plasma.
