Input

sweets.input(...) configures physical libinput pointer devices.

On startup, on reload, and for newly connected devices, Sweets resets configurable fields to libinput defaults, applies the global block, then applies matching selector blocks in config order.

sweets.input({
  accel_speed = 0.0,
})

sweets.input("touchpad", {
  tap = true,
  natural_scroll = true,
  disable_while_typing = true,
})

sweets.input("mouse", {
  natural_scroll = false,
  accel_profile = "flat",
})

sweets.input("name:ELAN", {
  accel_speed = -0.25,
})

Selectors

Call sweets.input({ ... }) with no selector to target every device, or pass a selector to target a subset.

This keeps natural scrolling on the touchpad only:

sweets.input({
  accel_speed = 0.0,
})

sweets.input("touchpad", { natural_scroll = true })
sweets.input("mouse", { natural_scroll = false })

Live tuning

Tune a setting without reloading:

sweetctl input ELAN accel_speed -0.25
sweetctl input ELAN natural_scroll true
sweetctl input "Logitech USB Optical Mouse" accel_profile flat

Setting names and values match the options below. Changes are temporary — a reload, reconnect, or restart resets them. Once a value feels right, add it to the matching sweets.input(...) block.
