Thinkpad 40 series Touchpad Configuration in libinput

Good evening, I was using gnome desktop and by default it detected my touchpad as a clickpad, where 1, 2, 3 finger clicks were mapped as left, right, middle accordingly, I've changed to deepin desktop and now since I don't have access to gnome-control-center I cannot edit this from the GUI, I have done some research (https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinpu … ttons.html) and found out that my touchpad is working as Software Button Areas

instead of Clickfinger Behaviour.

While reading the libinput page on the arch wiki, I have created a symlink from /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf and have added  ' Option "TappingButtonMap" "lrm" ' but this only works when tap to click is enabled, which I really dislike.

How can I change from software button areas to clickfinger behaviour within the conf file?  Thanks!
