Hello,

I upgraded from firefox 3.6, which had multi touch support. Why does firefox 4 not have it. I loved to zoom in and out with my fingers....

Any suggestion?

fixed it.

go to about:config and search "gesture"

for tab switching look for "browser.gesture.twist.left" (and of course, right)

right click, "modify", enter Browser:prevTab or Browser:NextTab



for zoom look for "browser.gesture.pinch.in" (or out)

enter cmd_fullZoomReduce or cmd_fullZoomEnlarge

Thank you very much it works now :)
 
i still can't get the scrolling zoom to work, it's like it takes a full motion to get the screen to zoom once, then i have to do the gesture again to get more zoom

I've never been able to do this, it's always one at a time as you described. How did you set this up previously?

Also, when you search for "gesture" there are parameters for zoom+shift which allows you to zoom all the way in and all the way out. . .
 
So there's no way to get Multi-Clutch working w/ 4.0 yet?

My previous FireFox had swiping to the right to open a new tab, swiping to the left to close a tab, and rotating to the left and right to switch to different tabs...

...But without this, I might as well migrate to a handicap version of Safari.
