av -DM-, 8 år sidenThanks, this works like a charm...would be great if we had an option to remap the gestures though ;-)
Update :
Installed 1.3a1 and remap gestures is working perfectly...I see a bug though, if there is only one tab open, "closing tab" gesture doesn't work in that case...
Otherwise all gestures works, including "new tab"
Also a little request, new tab gesture opens "about:blank" but it would be better if it opens "about:home" instead as this would give direct access to bookmarks at the same time ;-)
Thanks again for this great new addon
ps: do you have an email where we can report bugs and so on?
Update 2:
Just installed 1.4a2, closing tab now works when there only one tab open...also gestures are snappier or it might be a placebo effect ;-)
I saw that you mentioned Quick Gestures in the your addon description yes indeed it was a great addon (used it for years) but it stopped working when Firefox updated to Skia library for content rendering with Firefox v51.0.2... The dev from that addon is gone (last update was in 2014) maybe you should take over where he left off ;-)
Update 3:
Well close tab gesture on only one tab worked fine right after updating the addon to 1.4a2 but it stopped working once again, so still buggy I guess ;-)

﹥if there is only one tab open, "closing tab" gesture doesn't work in that case...
Thank you for bug report.
I try.
I'm sorry if can't fix it.
﹥Also a little request, new tab gesture opens "about:blank" but it would be better if it opens "about:home" ...
i think so too, but "Webextensions" can't open "about:home" or "about:newtab".
thx.
Update2:
hmm.... i didn't change the closing process.
It may be there are some conditions.
Update3:

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av MothOnFIre, 11 dager sidenIs there a way to require the gesture to be from the edge of the screen? It pops up when I use a gesture, but I can't find a way to require it.
Edit: thank you for the quick response!Utviklerrespons
postet 11 dager sidenYou can ignore the square shown in the popup and draw the gesture starting from the edge of the screen — that will work.
(The popup design hasn’t been updated to clearly indicate edge gestures yet, so it can be a bit confusing...) - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 19490321, én måned siden

I think it's fixed in 3.34.1, but if it doesn't work, I'll overwrite it with the version 3.33.2! - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 13352632, 3 måneder siden

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Arshia, 5 måneder sidenI like this extension. In the new version description it says “New: Support 2 or more fingers” but I can’t find this feature. I would like to set two finger touch to open a link in a new tab like safari on ipados. Is this possible? I a using double right now for this. So where is this 2 finger support?
Edit: Thank You. You added the feature I was looking forUtviklerrespons
postet 5 måneder sidenOh, sorry.
I supported two-finger swipes, but forgot to support two-finger taps.
Might take some time.
I create a new issue.

v3.30 supports it.
(But 2 or more fingers double-tap is not yet supported.)
thank you for your review. - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 13919522, 6 måneder siden
- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av Чувак, 8 måneder sidenPlease add gesture for switching tabs. And maybe add two finger swipes.

The API provided by Firefox is unstable, but you can use it by turning on “Enable experimental features” on the settings page.
> And maybe add two finger swipes.
Sorry, it will take some time to work on this.
I'll add it to the issues list.

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av krix, ett år sidenuseful and well-implemented add-on. Finally gifts FF-Androud users a nice UI experience, after Moz decided to cripple the UI some years ago.
Why does it need clip-board access though?Utviklerrespons
postet ett år sidenThis needs clip-board access though for custom gestures (=user script).
I will summarize the permissions.
Thank you for your review

I done. (see About Extensions) - Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av Dan, ett år sidenIt's a useful extension but there's one issue. If you have one tab open and you close it with a gesture, that tab freezes. It doesn't open the homepage.

I would love for there to be a gesture for saving the current webpage as a bookmark.Utviklerrespons

I fixed to hide the timeouts when 'Diaplay Command' is disabled in v3.12.2.
Thank you for your review. - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Whatzet2U, 2 år sidenIt'll do just about whatever you want it to. Reaching out to dev to request edge swipe support. Would provide just a bit more for my purposes.
