by Firefcx user 11712425, 6 years agoHello, thank you very much for making this extension!
However, it's almost unusable for me. The extension has no threshold/delay (see, Gesturefy extension) for when scrolling should begin so this issue makes right-clicking links (for example) prone to accidental scrolls of the page. There needs to be a customizable pixel threshold else the only semi-valid option for me is using the middle-mouse button (which still has the same issues: middle-clicking links), as this is not as commonly used to interact with the browser. The threshold/delay option should affect all three modes middle-, left-, and right-click. I'd highly appreciate adding this threshold option. I was actually surprised it was not already included! It seems necessary for a more error-free experience.
Thanks!

posted 6 years agoHello,
Have you tried the Option page / Advanced / "Mouse movement detection threshold:"?
But I'm not it will work, it will only affect when the links gets disabled (after how many pixels - maximum 20).
You can contact me directly to my support email.
Best regards,
Juraj Mäsiar

- Rated 5 out of 5by Spyrine, 2 months agoThis extension is an incredible life-saver for a very specific issue on Linux. I have a touchscreen laptop running Fedora in the GNOME desktop environment, and a known issue in this setup is that digital styluses and pens will not scroll by default on any app by dragging the tip, and it will select text instead. Scrolling is the default behavior on Windows (or easily enabled through Windows Ink / tablet drivers) and my laptop's stylus was experiencing this issue when I used it on its integrated touchscreen.
Enabling all the Left Button settings on the extension completely resolved the issue, and I can still double click on my stylus or hold Ctrl (both of these also settings in the extension) to select text as usual. I mainly use this laptop for college almost exclusively on Firefox, and I can finally use tablet mode, scroll through my textbooks, and take hand-written notes without issue. 100% recommend - Rated 5 out of 5by andrykyt, 3 months agoaddon features is very nice, I've been a fan of this addon over 10 years (maybe?)
as Japanese translation is very bad, please consider to have an option of UI languages. English option menus are more readable for me.Developer response

Yes, the addon will be 10 years old this November, I will probably write some blog post about my journey as addon developer, since this was my very first addon.
The Japanese translation is indeed terrible and will be removed along with other languages in the upcoming release. I made a huge mistake and did a (poor) machine translation as experiment, I'm sorry about that.
I will try to release it in a near future.
Best Regards,
