Touchpad gestures (feddit.de)

I'm testing, after many recommendations, a mint installation on my Lenovo yoga 720.

I found the settings for touchpad gestures but my question is: how do I bind a keyboard shortcut to a gesture?

I tried a workaround and installed touché, since my understanding was that mint uses touchegg. But that worked only until the first reboot and now seems broken. If possibleI'd prefer to just use whatever is implemented anyway.

So, is there a way to bind a keyboard shortcut to a touchpad gesture?

If someone is curious: with the gestures disabled in the settings, touchegg doesn't start up. I added a startup item with the command 'touchegg' and now my set up with touché as the config tool works.
