Feature Request: enable cycling tabs in MRU order #732

Open KraxCZ opened 5 days ago

KraxCZ commented 5 days ago

I'd like to use wheel gesture to cycle through open tabs in their MRU order (as is done by hitting CTRL+TAB with FF settings option "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order" enabled). Ideally, if the wheel gesture could display the FF's pop-up and scrolling the wheel would cycle through the tab 'icons' and releasing the button would make the FF switch to the selected tab. Anyway, thank you for this great add-on.

Hi, thanks for your feature request. Your request sounds similar to https://github.com/Robbendebiene/Gesturefy/issues/335

TLDR: This would require a wheel gesture specific implementation in order to work. Since wheel gestures are only an extra feature on top this is out of scope for Gesturefy.

Ideally, if the wheel gesture could display the FF's pop-up and scrolling the wheel would cycle through the tab 'icons' and releasing the button would make the FF switch to the selected tab.

This would be great but unfortunately add-ons cannot make use of this functionality.
