- Noté 1 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 16051526 de Firefox, il y a 6 ansI will start by saying I have loved this extension ever since the first version. The only reason I'm giving it 1 star is to attract developer attention to a very annoying issue with the latest version 3.0.1.
Let me paint the picture first: Users who install gesture addons, like me, and you - who are reading this now, are very particular users. They value convenience and ease of use. They want effectiveness and elegance. In the case of gestures - they have to, first of all, work. And work well. When I draw that L-shape on the screen, I want to be sure that in at least 95% of the time it will get recognized and trigger the action I need. Otherwise the addon becomes more of an obstacle than a help. You have managed to be that reliable rock-solid addon for a long tim for me.
With the version 3.0.1. unfortunately, I have immediately noticed that something's wrong. My gestures are no longer recognised effectively. It seems now, that the length of the lines I draw have something to do with the recognition process. I can no longer draw a shape that starts and ends properly. Now I have to be sure that the length of each segment is correct. This adds a layer of complexity that I do not need, and am not willing to adopt. It is unnecessary. It is more complexity, less convenience. And for the sake of what exactly? I'm not sure.
I reverted to the version 2.1.6. which seems to work as it always has. I will use that for now.
But the most important take away for you - the developers - should be that I will now start looking for alternatives among your competitors. I want to e up to date with addon versions for the sake of security, and if your addon still does not work as expected, I will regretably switch.
Let me leave you with this simple thought:
"If it's not broken, don't fix it."
Hope I was of help. Cheers.Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 6 ansSorry to hear that. In this case I recommend using Foxy Gestures https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/foxy-gestures/ - Noté 5 sur 5par Max, il y a 6 ansThis is an amazing addon. It's fast, clean, pretty, and it help me navigate faster than ever before. Thank you so much for developing this addon. I hope there is a way I can sponsor.

Gesturefy is open source and does not send any data. - Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13462190 de Firefox, il y a 6 ans

- Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14162863 de Firefox, il y a 6 ansVery easy to use mouse gesture addon.
However, it would be even more convenient if you could make a long press gesture.
(ex. Left-click the link for 1 second → open the link in a new tab.) - Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13566112 de Firefox, il y a 6 ans

UPDATE: Dev told me to reset my settings, and that worked. Thanks!Réponse du développeur

mis en ligne : il y a 6 ansHi. Version 3.0 had some errors. That's why some users had problems with their config file. We have decided to disable 3.0 until we have solved the problems. - Noté 5 sur 5par user 735972, il y a 6 ans
- Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14782726 de Firefox, il y a 6 ansThis Extension was great before 3.0.0 update, but now It's nothing but useless.
I would use this everyday. But now It can't even add new gesture because extension doesn't detect right click.
It's sad to see a great extension becomes trash...
Anyway, It's time to move to Foxy Gestures.
Edit: Reset config and now it worksRéponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 6 ansHi. This is a bug and was not planned. There are already several issues about it: https://github.com/Robbendebiene/Gesturefy/issues/480 - Noté 1 sur 5par Findhead, il y a 6 ans3.0 это ужас, настройки слетели, жесты не срабатывают, это фиаско. Не думал, что придётся переходить на другое дополнение, но пришлось.

There are already several issues about it: https://github.com/Robbendebiene/Gesturefy/issues/480 - Noté 2 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14111720 de Firefox, il y a 6 ansGesturefy is an essential, and perhaps my favorite add on for Firefox. It's one of the many reasons I love using it over any other browser. I loved having my Firefox set up with it & it's certainly worth donating for. Even made friends using Chrome take notice.
So it feels unfortunate for me to have to say this - but this shiny new update seems to have greatly diminished the usability to a point where it is simply not practical anymore.
I would say it's an example of ''if it ain't broke, don't fix it'' - the new pattern based gestures are just harder to draw precisely, especially with a trackpad. Having to draw a gesture 2, 3 times before getting is just way more cumbersome than before. I also can't find the ''re-store closed'' tab command anymore.
Sorry if this sounds harsh, but it's my take. I really (did) love the add-on. I think there should be an option to go back to the simple scheme.
Edit: I have reverted back to 2.16 for now and am happy.Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 6 ansHi.
3.0 offers a completely new way of making gestures and we always wanted Gesturefy's gestures to work the way they do now. You have to redo some gestures so that they are not too similar to others. But you will be pointed out to this with a sign. Try something out and maybe you will like the new art.
Important: Firefox will update Gesturefy automatically. You must disable automatic updates for this. And there could be problems with the config. - Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 12574324 de Firefox, il y a 6 ans
