    /etc/udev/hwdb.d/90-custom-keys.hwdb

    evdev:atkbd:dmi:*
      KEYBOARD_KEY_d7=!f22
      KEYBOARD_KEY_d8=!f23

In KDE Plasma 5 it works out of the box.

### Sway

Create `~/.config/sway/config.d/tablet_mode.conf` file

    ~/.config/sway/config.d/tablet_mode.conf

    # Tablet mode
    bindcode 200 input type:touchpad events enabled
    bindcode 201 input type:touchpad events disabled

    ~/.config/sway/config.d/tablet_mode.conf

    # Tablet mode
    bindcode 200 input type:touchpad events enabled, exec 'killall squeekboard'
