Hi,
You should be able to do it as follows:
- Enter about:config in the address bar and press Enter.
- Click Accept.
- Search for browser.gesture.swipe.left
- Click the Edit
button and change the value to cmd_scrollLeft or just an empty string.
- Click the Save
button.
Note: I used ChatPGT to get this info, but after testing it seems to work fine for me. There's a corresponding pref for the right swipe (browser.gesture.swipe.right, the value would be cmd_scrollRight) which you can also change, but in my case it wasn't necessary.
This fix worked like a gem! thank you so much. I was losing work I had done because of my quick trackpad swipe being interpreted this way. thanks guys!
