Anybody played with the new Browser Power Swipe patch?

alvintoro · 09/09/2011, 07:36 PM

Two fingered gestures for back & forward functions in the browser! Just installed this and I can't believe that somebody didn't think of this before.

joedisaster · 09/09/2011, 08:02 PM

yep it works

Andrew025 · 09/09/2011, 08:14 PM

I love this thing

Trlsmn · 09/09/2011, 08:33 PM

Doesn't seem to work on Advanced Browser,anyone else?

I must be dumb, how does it work. I installed, check tweak settings, nothing, just moves screen around

Use two fingers to swipe left to right.
Swiping the page to the right is the same as hitting the back button. Swiping the page to the left is like hitting forward.

It would be awesome if this could be implemented in other apps as well, like the app catalog or preware.

When I try that gesture, the screen is just panning. I actually did it once but I don't know if I just got lucky.

Works well here

But i would like to see this option in "advanced browser, too. That would be awesome!

matchqq · 09/09/2011, 09:25 PM

Mine works, but I prefer the inverted way. How do I go to "Tweaks" to change settings??
Thanks for the info!

FenrirWolf · 09/09/2011, 09:31 PM

Tweaks is an application from Preware.

I'd love to see something similar to this implemented globally. Maybe a 3 fingers swipe to switch between cards, to replace the gesture from phones.

FenrirWolf · 09/09/2011, 10:53 PM

I'd prefer a swipe from offscreen akin to the playbook. I figure they borrowed from webOS so it's ok if we borrow back <_<

Shadavis08 · 09/09/2011, 11:00 PM

when you pull the screen sideways its supposed to pull the whole thing sidways like that , but if you watch the back and forward arrows at the top you will see when they light up signaling that they were triggered by the power swipe . also note you will had had to click a link or 4 in order to do a back swipe or forward lol

Andrew025 · 09/09/2011, 11:17 PM

It's working pretty flawlessly for me.

mc_gusto · 09/09/2011, 11:32 PM

i kept swiping back, didnt realize that fwd was the default. thanks. and yeah hit or miss, but i like where this is going for sure.

hemster · 09/10/2011, 01:28 AM

Works great! Thanks.

There's a window where it works, to avoid causing inadvertent activation when zooming.

You have to move 200 px horizontally, and not more than 45 px vertically. Seems like this needs tweaking (or Tweaking).
