Solved Option to Disable Mouse Gestures for Certain URLs
-
We can now setup kb shortcut for Toggle Mouse Gestures, however it lack visual feedback to confirm when we enabled/disabled MG.
-
@dude99 One could create a Command Chain that does provide some visual feedback, and assign a shortcut to that, e.g.
-
@pesala uh, your suggested solution only blink the statusbar, it doesn't inform user whether he have just disabled (or enabled) MG after executed the kb shortcut.
I'm suggesting something akin to MG statusinfo "Gesture: Close tab" when we executed a MG successfully.
-
This workaround should help address the issue (at least partially), so marking it as a "solution" for better visibility:
You can use the "Toggle Mouse Gestures" command through Quick commands, assigned keyboard shortcut/mouse gesture (just for disabling the gestures, obviously ) or by adding it to the context menu.

The workaround does help, but it's frustrating that it means you can't use mouse gestures on other tabs/windows without constantly disabling/re-enabling. The ability to disable gestures for specific URLs would still be extremely helpful. The number of sites that benefit from disabling mouse gestures is small, but mouse gestures truly make those sites unusable. I love mouse gestures and don't want to give them up on all other sites, and it's frustrating when I try to use mouse gestures and remember that they've been disabled in order to use another site.
Adding my vote for this feature request. Would love to see this implemented.

Any update on this?
I mean if even some third party extensions have this, how come the original inventor of mouse gestures (Opera > Vivaldi) does not have this?
-
Years and years of requesting but still no support. Its a shame because most other addins can do it, and the native gestures is literally the only thing keeping me on Vivaldi. If Firefox or Chrome got them I'd jump in a heartbeat because of little things like this.
-
I would like to add a bit of extra detail on top of this request:
If this option is implemented, then it should add an option to ONLY disabled MG performed on the webpage (
#webview-container
) but not on the browser 's GUI. That way we still can performing MG on the GUI like panel & tabbar.Basically MG is still useful on the GUI while we don't want it to interfere with the web content. Thus this extra option will allow user to utilize MG when dealing with browser GUI while disabled MG for web content - instead of switching MG ON/OFF mode constantly when switching focus between web content & browser GUI in daily basis.
-
For me possibility to disable mouse gestures on specific websites is super important. Manual turning it on/off is tedious.
By the way it could be useful to switch mouse gestures on/off per site in site settings. But list of websites works as well.
-
Bumping for this feature, I can't imagine it being super difficult to implement
-
+1 for this feature,
manually switching between on/off is tedious and disrupts my workflow... -

Hi, the request has 82 user votes since 2018 and it is tagged as "Nice to have", I would not wait for it.
The Vivaldi team have 6000 feature requests already.
You can create a keyboard shortcut to the command and/or create a command chain and add this as icon to Vivaldi.
All possible, there is an example for workspaces but work with all features in Vivaldi:

OT: I've added 2 more

I had a suggestion
If possible,
add an option in the mouse settings
so that the links of the sites that we don't want the mouse settings to be
applied to those sites
For example, I don't want the mouse settings to work on the chess
site
https://www.chess.com/home
