I have a touch-screen (NOT touchpad) in linux, and I'd like to know if it's possible to use gestures such as pinch, swipe etc. to navigate and scroll.

I can also see under "about:config" there are a number of settings browser.gestures.* to this effect. However, currently the only thing I can achieve is a single-click by pressing on the screen, and a mouse drag (select text) if I drag my finger across the screen.

I'd like to be able to scroll and navigate. Using a touchscreen (not a trackpad).

I know multitouch works as I can use gestures at the OS level (gnome) to change desktops, switch between programs etc.

Hi

Touch is not quite polished in Firefox yet. I am a Linux user as well and I know that there are several Windows 10 users that would also like to see better touch support in the desktop version of Firefox.

Whilst this may not be something that is fully available at the present time, I am sure that further development work may take place in the future to improve the touch experience for Firefox users.

Possible commands that you can try are these:

  • browser.gesture.twist.right -> Browser:NextTab
  • browser.gesture.twist.left -> Browser:PrevTab
  • browser.gesture.swipe.down -> cmd_scrollBottom
  • browser.gesture.swipe.up -> cmd_scrollTop
  • browser.gesture.swipe.left -> Browser:BackOrBackDuplicate
  • browser.gesture.swipe.right -> Browser:ForwardOrForwardDuplicate
  • browser.gesture.tap -> cmd_fullZoomReset

I haven't tested them for the current release, so if they aren't working then you would have to use the DOM Inspector to find the correct commands.

EDIT: I don't know if the above applies to touch screen events
