I work pretty fast so is there any way to add Windows10's 3 fingers swipe in Ubuntu? I use official Dell software in my window10 for gesture control but it is not available for Ubuntu

You want something like 2-finger scroll? You can do something to achieve it. – Pilot6 Jan 28 '17 at 12:35

There is Ctrl+Super+D keyboard combination. – Pilot6 Jan 28 '17 at 12:40

If you need the touchpad gesture, you can set touchegg to that combination. – Pilot6 Jan 28 '17 at 12:44

It's easy to setup with "Fusuma". Currently have it installed on Ubuntu 18.10. It's comes with some standard swipes and commands, that can be easily changed. There's an installation article on it here: Fusuma installation article
Edit as @Pilot6 mentioned, libinput-gestures works great too! You just have to create your own config to achieve minimizing all windows with a 3-finger up swipe.

If you want to minimize all windows, you can use the Ctrl+Super+D keyboard shortcut.
It is possible to set the touchegg
program to send this shortcut on a 3-finger swipe.
The only problem is that touchegg
does not work with libinput
, only with xorg-synaptics
.
For libinput
you can try libinput-gestures. It works for me.
