[Suggestion] Back and forward mouse click support #643

Closed CheeseFort closed 11 months ago

CheeseFort commented 1 year ago

Currently, touchegg supports emulating left, right, and middle mouse clicks as actions. I suggest expanding this to include back and forward mouse button emulation. Back and forward mouse buttons are featured on most middle and high-end mice, and it would be nice to have this functionally on a touchpad. Thanks.

Mouse with forward and back buttons

JoseExposito commented 12 months ago

It is possible to manually edit the XML configuration file and use values 8 and 9 to emulate back and forward.

Is this a request to add it to the configuration GUI?

CheeseFort commented 12 months ago

Oh, I apologize, I didn't know the functionality was already present. I suppose, then, this is a request to add it to the GUI/add documentation to the README.md
