- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13440373, 7 years agoGreat Add-on, a must have for people who are used to do things with Gestures.
For developer I'd like to request if it is possible to "Show sidebars" with a gesture, as in open the sidebar where all bookmarks are with a gesture.Developer response
posted 7 years agoWith the current state of the API this is not possible at the moment. Sorry. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13359375, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by niedworok, 7 years agoVery good and polished addon.
The sources are available on github, two thumbs up for that. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13371007, 7 years agoHad to replace FireGuestures because firefox 57 happened. This one works well enough, although not everywhere.
Can't say the same about the rest of extensions. - Rated 5 out of 5by Cepro , 7 years agoGreat add-on!
But please correct 'PageUp' /' PageDown' actions in the wheel gestures. They must work continuously, depending on wheel steps: one wheel step - one page up/down, three steps - three page up/down. - Rated 5 out of 5by slb, 7 years agoI only use rocker gestures and this is the only addon I've found that's compatible with FF 57+ that supports them. It works fine in firefox 56 too.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13359274, 7 years agoI love this extension, but I need two finger swipe back gesture on ff 57.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Mihailo D., 7 years ago1. Must implement the STOP loading gesture.
2. And should allow me to close a new tab with the close gesture if i didn't opened a page in it (to close it I need to open a page... why?).
Good luck!

Yes, my bad Robben, I didn't read the part with the HTTPS for addons.mozilla.org links and related to about:home... maybe in the future you'll find a way to be able to close these tabs through mouse gestures such as about:home, about:config... all "about" tabs :).
Anyway, thank you for your work to code this very useful addon!Developer response
posted 7 years agoAbout the second question: This is an API limitation, read the addon description for more information)
What do you mean with the title "Come with support for HTTPS"? The only pages where the addon does not work are described in the addon description and it's working on https pages.

Alright, glad to hear that :) Btw. "stop loading" gesture will be available in the next version.version. - Rated 5 out of 5by Wayne Law, 7 years agoAs addons such as tab mix are disabled in FF57, gesture addons are very necessary. Here Gesturefy offers a friendly UI and a lot of gesture functions, which make using of FF57 easier.
But i found that when i enable Gesturefy, a lot of web pages began to lose response to the keyboard Enter/Return event. An example is baidu.com. When i type in the key words and press Enter, nothing happened. As soon as i disable Gesturefy, the Enter event returns to work. May it can be fixed? Or this will be a little annoying.
Sorry for poor English. Thanks for your great addon! - Rated 5 out of 5by Markus Popp, 7 years agoWhen Firefox has fixed the bug which limits mouse gesture addons on Linux and OS X, this is probably the one I will use in the future.
2 questions:
Since version 1.1.9 Gesturefy doesn't trigger gestures at all on Linux (and maybe also OS X). Have you disabled this on purpose for now?
I can't find a timeout setting (so if the mouse isn't moved for a certain amount of time, the gesture is stopped), like Firegestures has it. Is it possible to implement this feature?Developer response
posted 7 years ago@1. question: Yeah, currently it's limited to middle and left mousebutton only.
@2. question: It should be possible and due to high amount of user request it's planned for the next version (https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/gesturefy/reviews/931190/)
Edit: Right click is still working on Linux if you are using this trick: https://github.com/Robbendebiene/Gesturefy/issues/1 (just in case you aren't using firefox 57) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13337966, 7 years agoThis extension is very simple, so easy to handle and just works marvelous! A big Thank You, I like this App very much!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Shinji, 7 years agoFireGestures と比較すると機能的に劣る部分もありますが、WebExtensions の制限らしいので仕方がありません。Firefox Quantum で実用的な gesture が使えるという事だけでもありがたいです。
作者に感謝します。 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12707512, 7 years agoWould it be possible to add more features from Firegestures?
Like Ctrl + drawing a line over hyperlinks opens the links in new tabs?
Or the save image to file gesture?Developer response
posted 7 years agoKeypress gestures are already on the list and I'm planning to add a "Save media" action, but this requires a firefox API which is not implemented yet. - Rated 5 out of 5by tiantao433, 7 years ago挺不错的,不过大部分手势是空的需要用户定义,能参考老牌扩展提供兼容的默认手势更好了。
也有用户提出增加拖拽,我也需要此功能。
