Adds four basic mouse gestures for browser navigation.
Description from store
(Note: this extension only supports Windows at the moment).
This is a minimalistic mouse gesture WebExtension supporting four basic gestures:
1. Hold right mouse button + drag left
2. Hold right mouse button + drag right
3. Hold right mouse button + drag up
4. Hold right mouse button + drag down
The gestures can also be modified by the ctrl key, yielding a maximum of 8 distinct possible assignable actions.
Gesture assignment is fully configurable. The following actions are currently supported:
1. Navigate back
2. Navigate forward
3. Create a new tab
4. Reload current page
5. Close current tab
7. Switch to left tab
8. Switch to left tab (skip special pages)
9. Switch to right tab
10. Switch to right tab (skip special pages)
11. Restore last closed tab
Note that by default the mouse sensitivity is very high (4 pixels delta), meaning that even a tiny drag distance would trigger a gesture. This "nano" sized default setting is meant to target power users, but can be adjusted in the options as well.
The extension is available for Firefox (58+) as well:
