Use mouse gestures to browse mails even faster!

Be more productive, save your time, use gestures! This was a Google Mail app (in labs). Unfortunately removed some days ago. So I remade it for us. Any advice and comments are welcome!

Support me with 5 stars! :)

UPDATE 13/10/12: New version arrived! Major bugs fixed. Enjoy!

p.s. If it's not working at first, don't give up! Try clearing your cache (Use CTRL+SHIFT+R hotkeys!) and restarting Chrome. That should do the trick.

Usage: Press right mouse button then:
- drag up: go to inbox*
- drag left: newer mail**
- drag right: older mail**

* I know, this action should go to previous list, unfortunately it's impossible because annoying Chrome bug. :(
** Works only when you are reading a mail (watching a single list soon), because chrome bug. Sorry for that

Alfredo Barral 2014-01-23: When dragging up back to inbox the MouseUp event is detected in the inbox page, so the message it releases above becomes selected and the context menu displayed. This is quite umconfortable. It would also be nice if dragging in the inbox navigated through the new Gmail tabs (Primary, Social, Promotions...)

Anish Kannan 2013-10-13: Very well done. Occasionally moves by two emails at once but for the most part works well.

Arnaud Barré 2013-03-21: Thanks for bringing this feature back.. used to be in Labs before Google removed it. From what I can see it looks pretty much the same. Good work ! Thanks mate

Christian Chen 2013-02-09: My right click context menu comes up every time, not allowing me to use this efficiently at all. May be a bug but the extension needs some more work. Keep it up.

Matheus Fernandes 2012-11-29: Saudades!!! Pensei que nunca mais ir ver isso depois que saiu do labs, pena que é só no Chrome, Mas reclamar pra quê né? Realmente maravilhoso, obrigado desenvolvedor!

Huy Donguyen 2012-11-04: Worked great on the first install. Gmail/Google should bring this functionality back rather than requiring the use of an extension.

Hiro 2012-07-31: Was excited when I heard about this. I loved gestures in gmail. Unfortunately, I've been unable to make this work at all. :( I hope it's a simple bug the author discovers and that he's not abandoned the project. Good luck!

Jason Loi 2012-07-10: Very temperamental. Worked the first day or two and now doesn't work. On another computer, for the first few days it worked but did not show the visuals. Now does not work at all either. So for me, two computers worked for the first few days and no longer work anymore.

Francis Sims 2012-06-26: It seems to be working, but I do not see the arrow when I right click and move my mouse. Is that only in the pictures to relate to the actual gmail lab??

Bruno Luiz Silva 2012-06-09: Very good, mostly because Google has removed the (labs) mouse gestures

ria rua 2012-06-09: I'm happy to have mouse gestures back again. One difference I noticed between this version and Google's version is that when you get to the most recent email and flick to go to the next email, it does nothing. Google's one used bring you back to the inbox.

Anshuman Sowani 2012-05-30: Can you make this update please? Up is NOT always Inbox. Up is the previous mail-display page, e.g. if I run a search, or if I am inside a label, I want to go back to those results with the UP gesture, not inbox. That is how Gmail Mouse gestures used to work anyway. Ask others if you're not sure. ----------- Bravo for the Triangles! :) It works after clearing the cache. Good work so far, though. :)
