Description

Please fill out the following:

  • Description:
    This configs for type is pretty inconsistent, type:touchpad and type:keyboard works as expected as per swaymsg -t get_inputs. However, in get_inputs it shows the type as Mouse, while the configs require the type as pointer as per libinput list-devices.

I think it would be more user friendly to either setup up aliases for type:mouse -> type:pointer, or change the output for swaymsg -t get_inputs to show Pointer instead of Mouse.
