Summary: Put Overview gestures on four fingers swipe instead of
pinch

SUMMARY
This is an usability issue I have with the Overview trackpad gesture. I
remember that when it was still experimental, it was on four fingers swipe
upwards and Desktop Grid was on four fingers pinch, which actually makes sense
given the way those effects occur during the gesture. But now they're the other
way around, feeling completely unnatural and there is also the problem of being
unable to reliably do pinch gestures with four fingers. Almost always, it
triggers the other gestures first, like the four fingers downwards or upwards.
I use a Lenovo Ideapad 330 and it does support multitouch gestures nicely, but
is a nightmare to do pinch gestures with so many fingers on it
So I ask to put them back to how they were before during testing. Put overview
gesture back on four fingers going upwards. I don't understand why they were
made the other way around before release. If that is not possible, is it
possible to at least get an option to swap the two?
