    Found an answer! For those needing help with similar things, here’s a link: https://www.reddit.com/r/swaywm/comments/kiybht/enabledisable_touchpad_with_keyboard_shortcut/

    And a copy/paste:

    You can toggle your touchpad with swaymsg input type:touchpad events toggle enabled disabled Find out what Fn+F1 actually gets reported as, either by running wev or xev, focusing the window it creates, and typing Fn+F1 For example, me running wev -f wl_keyboard and then typing Fn+F9:

    [14:     wl_keyboard] key: serial: 126015; time: 225412042; key: 199; state: 1 (pressed)
                      sym: XF86TouchpadToggle (269025193), utf8: ''
[14:     wl_keyboard] key: serial: 126016; time: 225412042; key: 199; state: 0 (released)
                      sym: XF86TouchpadToggle (269025193), utf8: ''

    Here my laptop’s Fn+F9 maps to XF86TouchpadToggle which I have bound as:

    bindsym XF86TouchpadToggle input type:touchpad events toggle enabled disabled
