How to disable gestures

Firefox Personnalisation

When I press the middle button of mouse and move the mouse to the left (or right) firefox takes that as "back" button and moves to the previous page. This feature is really frustrating when using web based cad-programs that use that combination to move the view.

I have tried to disable all gestures from my firefox but can't get rid of this feature that is really awful.

I would really appreciate the possibility for simple operation without any functionalities like this.

Hi Jukka,

This is a feature of the mouse, so IMHO it should be fixed at the mouse driver level. If that's not an option, you can use the desktop applications like X-Mouse Button Control or AutoHotKey to override the functionality (Mouse 4 and Mouse 5 buttons).

In the past, there were also about:config keys to control this, but I can't try them out right now, so I can't vouch for them working as intended. These are mousebutton.4th.enabled and mousebutton.5th.enabled, you might try to toggle them to false.

Regards, Balázs
