by Void, 3 years agoLatest update made it worse!
I've loved this addon for a long time, however (as other reviews have pointed out) the latest update changed the way it logs gestures and I find this far, far worse. I have a 'C' shape for closing a tab, if I draw this at my normal speed, it picks it up about 50% of the time. I keep finding myself doing actions I don't intend now because if the way it picks up gestures whereas it used to work so smoothly because each motion was logged, now it seems more loose and undefined, I do not enjoy it.
It's really sad to see this happen because I think it already worked very well, if I could revert to the previous version then I would do.
Please, I do hope that you can change it back or make the new method work a little better so I don't have to do everything really slowly, I prefered the super fast motions I could do before in a blur to do 10 things in a second and now I have to slow myself, it feels sluggish.
Sorry for the negative review, it's not what I'd like to do for an addon I've recommended to countless people since I got it.

posted 3 years agoWith version 3.0.4 there was an update of the matching algorithm. You can activate it in the settings. This should work better for you. See: https://github.com/Robbendebiene/Gesturefy/releases/tag/v3.0.4

- Rated 5 out of 5by Mikhail, 12 days agoI would like to ask you to consider using only the mouse API in Firefox, using only rocker and wheel gestures, without basic gestures, without full access to site data.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Nejy, 19 days agoIncredibly useful to activate certain shortcuts that normally would require two hands - now you can do them with just your mouse!

- Rated 1 out of 5by user_202308, a month agoI spend much time to understand why I can't use the Wheel-Gesture on Mac. Fix it, or kill the Gesture on Mac. I doubted my setting at first, not Add-On.
