posted 7 years agoI'm sorry, I can't do that. The latest versions of Firefox are locked down and don't allow fidgeting with the tab stripe area. - Rated 5 out of 5by UrbanX-Coder, 7 years agophew! New substitute for dbclicker finally... Thanks for bringing it back.
please add the option to close tab by double clicking it like dbclicker, then it will be perfect...
that's my most used option.Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by RGhost, 7 years agoThank you, great extension! Formerly I used dblclicker, but this extension works prety well on new FF.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Scribe, 7 years agoDon't be misled by its name; double clicking with a mouse works equally well. This is a very good replacement for https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dblclicker/ which I understand from its developer won't be migrated to WebExtensions.
The only thing I can add, is that it would be even better if the double click speed could be made adjustable, since I find it a little fast, but that is in no way intended as a criticism! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13400534, 7 years agoSehr sinnvolle Erweiterung für Geräte mit Touchpad.
- Rated 5 out of 5by -DM-, 7 years agoBeen using this with Firefox Nightly 58.0a1 on Android, the update to 0.3.3 stopped working, double tap on link doesn't open the link in a new tab anymore...it just "flashes" the link text and that's about it...downgrading to the previous version 0.3.2 on the other hand works flawlessly...

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13256199, 7 years agoit just works!. No more stupid steps to just conveniently open a link in a new tab, just double tap the link and it would open in a new tab. Awesome!.
This functionality is the last hurdle that keep me away from the new firefox webextensions, because the only addons that could emulate double tap "DblClikcer" are not compatible with the new firefox. there are similar extension on chrome but not as accurate as this one. Long life firefox! - Rated 5 out of 5by Cyberknight, 7 years agoIt works as expected. It could have an option to set double click speed, though. Could also replace the icons for a single SVG, as the PNG images make up for most of the 17KB of the add-on package. It uses WebExtension technology, what is good in the long run (let us hope there will be no more big changes in the browser pathway for the next decade or so), but it is also its weakness, not working on "about:" tabs, or on "addons.mozilla.org" (why, Mozilla, that's so annoying!) Anyway, good work.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Ray., 7 years agoAddon works great when double-clicking on a link.
However, when right-clicking on a link for context menu, the context menu appears AND the link registers a left-click, resulting in the link being opened.
Right-click works normally when the addon is disabled.
[EDIT: Tested this on a mouse, the same right-click issue is happening.]
[EDIT: Bug is now fixed, awesome work and quick response from the developer, kudos!!]Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks for reporting this bug. It has been fixed in the latest version. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12309333, 7 years agoIt is convenient. Please DO NOT make it so it automatically focuses on that tab. Or at least make an option for those who want it.
The way it is now serves a unique purpose. - Rated 5 out of 5by Flash_Mob_In_This_Bus_65, 7 years agoI installed this on my android phone and tablet and it works perfectly. Double tap a link and a new tab is created.
The only downside is that it doesn't switch to that tab automatically, you need to open tabs, and then click on the new tab. It's a small issue that doesn't bother me very much.Developer response
posted 7 years agoHold your horses, Flash! The next release will be configurable whether the tab is at front or background!
