by LinusCDE, 9 months agoInitially discovered this feature in Vivaldi and got hooked hard. When I switched to Firefox, it was only thanks to this extension, since I could keep using the gestures I got used to.
I even checked for alternatives and it seems this extension for Firefox is the best one. You can't seemingly do this consistently on Chrome (on Linux at least).
If you love the back swipe gesture on touchpads, this is basically the same but for a mouse (even faster imo). No need setting up very complex gestures. Just as simple back gesture alone makes this extension worth everything.
Personally I use the back gesture (swipe left with mouse right button) and close + restore tab mostly. Though you can add pretty much everything imaginable which I love!

- Rated 3 out of 5by Dru_Wave, 2 months agoHey dev can you add support for wacom tablet input or no? The issue: Even though without the extension there is no discernible difference between holding right mouse button with my pen while hovering the above the tablet to drag the cursor downwards compared to if I use mouse to do so, but with the extension installed only the mouse is able to activate gesturefy. For some reason the pen input still just activates the right click menu. I would definitely use this if it worked with my pen (edit. I just read the "it's only suited for mice and not touchpads" under the about section, I am unsure if that is intended to also apply to wacom tablet/ windows ink input. If nothing else maybe add them to the disclaimer so people using a pen input don't feel inclined to ask for features that you don't plan adding on or can't add for somereason.)

posted a month agoI'm open to support Wacom tablets. I know that at least some users are already successfully using Gesturefy with Wacom tablets. However I need assistance in testing and finding the cause of your issue. So if you are interested please open an issue here https://github.com/Robbendebiene/Gesturefy/issues and we can work things out together. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18670937, 2 months ago
