posted 4 years agoWhy is downloading/using a previous version from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/gesturefy/versions/ not an option for you? The version restrictions are bound to new functionality that Firefox provides and Gesturefy uses. I don't impose them just for fun. - Rated 5 out of 5by Chills Multiplying, 4 years agoBy far, the best of the best Gesture Add-ons I've ever used. Tons of options. Highly customizable. My only complaint is not available on every browser.
I was kind of surprised it's been rated lower than 5 stars. I read through a handful of comments, and have to admit some of the 4 have suggestions I'd like to see too. Some of the two and three stars, offered some sage advice to follow backups with a screenshot.
As far as the 1 star ratings, apparently some users have had identification problems. I haven't noticed a problem with that. If it helps anyone, my deviation is set to 0.15. I have no idea if that was the default setting, or something I changed along the way, but If you're a little lazy about execution, like I am, I'd recommend giving it a try.
Extra sloppy executions still get misidentified, occasionally. To compensate, I separate polar opposite actions from semi-similar movements. My gestures with varying properties to open a link are kind of similar, but all of them are entirely different than my gestures that effect the a tab, or windows state.Developer response
posted 4 years agoThanks for your kind review! Things like this always cheer me up.
Most of the bad reviews are due to the history of Gesturefy.
Version 1.0 got a lot of hate, because new add-ons could not (and still cannot) compete with the old/previous add-ons users were using before Firefox disabled the old extension API.
Other bad reviews for Version 3.0 are related to a decision I made moving away from 4 directions (up, down, right, left) to completely free drawn gestures. At the beginning of the release there was only one matching algorithm (strict) which some existing users didn't like.
I'm glad that most people none the less value free and open source software and adjust their expectations accordingly. - Rated 5 out of 5by マラ, 4 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Noober, 4 years agodear Gesturefy. Please add "Scroll Left'' and "Scroll Right" to commands. It will be very useful for the users with who have multi-button mose. I tried to make the side buttons on my mouse to scroll web pages left/right, but I did not find Scroll Left among possible scrolling commands.

posted 4 years agoUnfortunately add-ons in general cannot open most of the browser tools like the find bar.
There may be other add-ons that provide some sort of find bar functionally. Gesturefy can communicate with them and trigger their functionality if they support it. - Rated 5 out of 5by Михаил, 4 years ago
