by Al, 7 years agoI only use the rocker gestures from this extension, but I use them A LOT. Since the update to FireFox 57, and if I enable a rocker that starts with the left click, I can no longer select text in web pages by clicking the left button and dragging!
Moreover, the rocker that starts with right click does not work. This is explained by Gesturefy as being a Firefox bug, and I read that this will be fixed in the next Firefox release. For me this addon is completely unusable at the moment and I had to disable it.

posted 7 years agoI guess you are using Linux or Mac and suppose you've set the left mouse button for the mouse gesture, because this is the only thing that prevents text selection. I recommend using Firefox 58 beta, because the right mouse button is fixed since the latest version (Gesturefy 1.1.17 and Firefox 58.b7). To enable text selection just change the mouse button to the middle or right mouse button.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Mutzu, 2 months agoThanks for your great work! I think it's an important missing piece for the usability of Firefox.
I'd really like to use 2-axis Rocker gestures on my phone.
I've described them as X-buttons, as the first touch held(!) represents the centre of an X and the four fields around the X are the click areas for the second touch.
If you are interested, I've written about it at the end of the "Mousepad Gestures" idea thread on Mozilla Connect, but I'm not allowed to provide a link.Developer response
posted a month agoThanks for your kind review.
Sounds like a cool idea. Though I think a separate add-on would serve as a better solution than putting this into Gesturefy which was primarily made for desktop PCs. - Rated 5 out of 5by zyb, 2 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18760639, 3 months agoI can't believe I am just discovering this. I love it other than the fact that I am constantly trying to do mouse gestures everywhere else. Is there an equivalent way of doing mouse gestures in Windows 11?
