<![CDATA[Back gesture on touchpad Windows 10]]>Hi, I donΒ΄t know if there is any option to do the gestures of going back and forward on the pages with the touchpad, so it would be nice if you added like chrome or edge do in their navigators. Because is a mess to use always the arrows at the top of the screen.
Thanks

Realizing that this has been already reported more than 5 years ago (!!!) and nothing has changed made me think, that this is just Opera's support, sucking b*llz.

However, I tried to file a bugs & suggestions report form anyhow on July 10th, 2024 with the following headline...

"Lack of vital and common functionality in other browsers now missing for - years - after having been reported countless times! (trackpad gestures for "go back to last page" and "go forward to next page")"

...and now, more than a months has passed and after having repeatedly and multiple times updated said form with the same request of implementing this functionality, nothing has happened.

On the contrary, the system for reporting those bugs filed the following response - immediately - after the report had been sent in (literally in the same moment)...

Automatic response
10/Jul/24 4:25 PM
Your request status has changed to Done.

...which clearly indicates, that Opera doesn't give a sh*t about our requests, suggestions and reported bugs or if we use their browser or not.

Hence, I uninstalled Opera and am now going back to Chrome and Firefox. A pity, since the opposite can be said about both topics for Opera Android where people both have listened to critique and suggestions as well as all the necessary functions implemented to make it the best browser for that platform.

Would Opera Desktop just have listened and implemented the trackpad feature of swiping forth and back - which not having implemented yet in the year 2024 is as hilarious as it is riduculous - I would have been on board and ditched Chrome in favor of Opera for Windows.

Good luck with increasing your customer base, Opera.

You'll need it.

It's frusstating to use it without this feature as a laptop user. One of the main reasons why couldn't switch to opera from chrome.

It's the easiest way to change the back gestures.

I'm on windows 11, and it works very well, the only difference is that you have to use 3 fingers instead of 2.

On win11 you have to go to Settings --> Bluetooth and Devices --> Touchpad --> Advanced gestures --> change the 3 finger swype left and swype right gestures to "forward navigation" and "backward navigation"

With a simple gesture we could go backwards.

Here is the link below! It works greatly for me on all my Windows computers, enabling both previous and next swipe functionality like Chrome. Hope this helps you!
