Budgie disable/enable touchpad while typing

Hello peoples!!  I have adopted Budgie as my DE, however I have some problems with the touchpad.  I am trying to keep the touchpad on when I have keys pressed so I can play games.  I use my touchpad for some games.  I know Budgie is GNOME based, and I have looked at how this is done in plain GNOME; however I don't seem to have the same options in my settings.  In GNOME there is a setting in mouse/touchpad settings that say "disable touchpad while typing", I don't have this option in Budgie.  Anyone use Budgie that know this?  Much appreciated!

Re: Budgie disable/enable touchpad while typing

You might be able to type:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad disable-while-typing false

in your terminal. If that doesn't work then I'm not sure.
