Hi,

I haven't used my MacBook Pro 2019 16 inch for two days and suddenly the three finger gesture to switch between full screen apps stopped working. Every other gesture works, not just this one. Its truly frustrating because I use that function all the time. I tried reaching out to an advisor but they couldn't help me due to me running a beta version of Monterey.

I have already tried resetting SMC, NVRAM, running in Safe Boot, and simply turning on and off the function, but with no success. I have also confirmed its not a trackpad issue but a software issue, because the gesture also does not work on the Magic Mouse.

Never mind, I somehow fixed it but switching on and off the “Automatically show and hide menu bar in full screen”

I noticed the same issue when turning off “Automatically show and hide menu bar in full screen”. Now I can not get it to work.. Did you restart or something after changing?
