Rocker gestures for Chrome
This extension provides "rocker navigation gestures" for Chrome; versions 1.0.0.3 and later now work with Gmail!
PLEASE READ: Any tabs opened before installing this extension must be reloaded before rocker gestures become available in them. For full functionality, this plugin changes Chrome's "default newtab" page; if this is unacceptable, please install the alternate version. See below for details.
The idea was taken from an implementation by "Billiam" that had one drawback I found unacceptable:
1 - Proper clicking order. In other versions, the second button had to be clicked while the first was held down; this is counter to the "standard" rocker gestures, which use a "flick of the wrist" motion where the first button pressed is the first released

- Good extension, but any PDF appears as black page with it.

- Not working at all in 46.0.2490.* , though other rocker-gesture extensions aren't working here either. Someone please help!
- Matt
- Works flawlessly! Even better with new update.
- Billy Te
- It seems to work if you for example release the right mouse button before clicking the left, but it doesn't work if you still have the right mouse button clicked when you click the left. This makes it unusable to me.

- I second the opinion of Elmar Juzar. Excellent work on rocker gesture itself finally some relief for rocker-starved Opera refugees - feels like a real thing. but, it replaces the new page and I couldn't find the "uploaded" alternative version. dear Philip, pretty please?

- peca de lo mismo que todas las que usan gestos rocker: al intentar cambiar de pestaña con este gesto desaprovecha el primer movimiento mostrando la lista de pestañas en vez de MOVERSE INMEDIATAMENTE de pestaña.

- This would be a great extension if it did not override the newtab page. The description mentions an alternative version without this feature, yet I was unable to locate it anywhere on the Chrome Web Store. Would love to see that alternative version. No other complaints about the implementation itself.

- left-right or right-left-clicks need to be too be extremely fast. Not configurable and hard to use
