Hi, thanks for the report. You mean "multi-touch gesture" property is missing. AFAIK touchpad gestures are only supported on Windows, Mac and linux-wayland: 84ddb8b3cc

Then this option should also be present for "linux-wayland", right?
Especially since on linux it doesn't work the best, so you could disable multi-touch gestures.

I'm somewhat confused— I'm on a Wayland Linux system and touchpad gestures are present, but their direction cannot be made natural.

"Natural direction" is an OS option, there is no such option in Blender, only an option to disable multi-touch gestures.

I'm referring to the option discussed here: #97925 (comment)

Ok, updated the report. For consistency, there should be option to disable multi-touch gesture if linux/wayland supports it.

My report isn't about that though. I don't want to disable. I want to reverse direction. The link I provided was wrong though. Apologies.

Here's a discussion of what I mean. https://www.reddit.com/r/blender/comments/ltyjzn/blender_292_trackpad_controls_reversed_cant_find/

Why has this been closed? Again, I do not want to disable, I want to reverse the direction.

Hi, now I'm confused about your requirement. First you said, multi-touch gesture option is missing in linux: #118233 (comment)
Campbell added that already in 4.1/4.2 branch: a8ca12f2a8
You can grab 4.1/4.2 daily builds from: https://builder.blender.org/download/daily/

Now you're saying "I want to reverse the direction", you can either reverse the mouse direction from OS settings or blender preferences

"multi-touch gesture" option is added now for linux/wayland so closing this ticket

I want it to be so that when I swipe with two fingers from left to right, the viewport moves counterclockwise rather than clockwise.

There is no user preference in Blender to invert viewport rotation, was discussed in #86025.
But in your case it seems to be a Linux issue, see here #104272 for details.

I think you're right. My issue is similar to #107676
