Installation

Mouse Gestures v1.5 - Key Features:

• Customizable gesture mappings: You can easily choose which gesture triggers which action. There is no need to type in codes, just click "Recognize" and do the gesture you want!
• Unlimited set of functions: Besides over 60 built-in gesture functions, you can add your own. With a little knowledge of JavaScript, you can create a gesture that does exactly what you want. Everything that you can do via menus or toolbar buttons can be done with a gesture!
• Easy gesture sharing: With special links placed on web pages, everyone can import gesture mappings and new functions, and everyone can publish their own. Visit Gesture Exchange to see some examples.
• Bookmark gestures: Create a gesture that opens any of your bookmarks - in the current tab/window, a new tab or window, or the sidebar. Just click the "Gesture" button in a bookmark's properties window to define a gesture for it.
• Sidebar that helps you learn: Mouse Gestures includes a Firefox sidebar that displays drawings that show you how to make each gesture, and offers shortcuts to settings and web pages via the context menu. After installing, press Ctrl-Shift-O or drag the Mouse Gestures Guide button to your Firefox toolbar.
• Wheel rockers: Hold down a mouse button and scroll the mouse wheel to trigger an action of your choice - for example, resizing images/text or quickly switching tabs.
• Unmatched compatibility: Regardless whether you use Windows or Linux, whether you're using Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, the Mozilla Suite or Chatzilla - Mouse Gestures are there. (It may even run on other operating systems^*.)

New since 1.0.x

• The sidebar now contains dynamically generated drawings of all configured gestures to help you with learning. Via a context menu, you have direct access to the extension's settings and web pages.
• Completely new system for bookmark gestures - you are no longer limited to bookmarks with keywords, and can also choose whether to open the bookmark in the current tab/window, a new tab or window, or the sidebar.
• When going back or forward with a rocker gesture, you can hold the first mouse button and click the second button multiple times (applies to Windows only). Previously, you had to release both buttons first.
• Mouse trails are now drawn natively on Windows, which greatly improves performance and avoids interfering with gesture recognition.
• The extension now provides a printable list of gestures.
• Added Dutch and Slovak translations.
