Feature: Use the OS's "swipe between pages" hook for image browsing #434

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

This is not a bug; it's a feature request. (Well, unless this is supposed to 
work already. If it is, it doesn't.)

I assume it's possible to utilize the "swipe between pages" feature for image 
browsing (forward/back). Safari uses this, but Path Finder uses it as well. 
That way the gesture for image browsing is not mixed in with scrolling. In the 
preferences GUI, you'd probably need a checkbox to enable this that disables 
the other "swipe" options. i.e. with your "swipe", you can move in 2 
dimensions. With the "swipe between pages", it's only one dimension. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output: Swipe right (number of fingers defined in System Preferences 
-> Trackpad -> Other Gestures) does a "next. Swipe left does a "previous". Any 
other functionality on sorting (prev/next by date, name, whatever) would be 
nice too I guess. 

Better Touch Tool can achieve a similar affect, but it requires you to disable 
"swipe between pages" I believe and forces you to define the gesture per app. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
3.3 on OS X 10.9.3

Please provide any additional information below.

Added quick support for the three finger swipe. For now they'll just always do 
a browse to next/previous in the default order.

Two finger swipes will still work no matter what the preference setting is, so 
if you don't want them, set them to "None" in the preferences instead.
