Mouse Gestures temporarily broken

[Erik Arvidsson]

Mouse gestures are currently broken in the current version of Gmail. I
have fixed the issue and they should be back working within a few
days.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Erik

[LinuZZ]

[hasit]

Thanks for the info, I too miss them a lot. Can you notify once they
start working so we don't have to check it on a daily basis?

Thanks, Hasit

[Broncho]

function.

Yeah, I've noticed ... it's a pain in the neck, wen it stopped working
I went nuts.
It's a great interface, it really is just the best feature in labs.
Thanks a lot for the update ... but get it working again please,
please, plz, plz ... :D

[c3k]

like others users...i need it!
hope you have the time to restore this function...

[Rohit Rai]

Nice to know it is fixed... I find it impossible to use GMail without
gestures feature now that I am addicted to it....

And of course, Congratulations on the brilliant implementation of this
feature...

Hope to see it running back soon. I am getting bored of seeing the
context menu every time I do a gesture :(
Missing it . . .

awesome! thanks! Hope it works SOON SOON! Its the BEST labs feature
yet!

[Jelmer12345]

Thanks,
It's a great feature which I used a lot.

[Pvberg]

Erik:

Thank you, it is amazing how quickly you learn to use something that
you have never used (didn't even know you needed it) and then find you
almost can't live without it.

Thanks Erik,

And please DO NOT make down = delete. This would ruin the mouse
gestures lab add on. How many times would I accidentally do that and
delete a really important message? And second of all, this is gmail,
don't delete things! You will NEVER fill 7 GB if its just for personal
use.

[dtencer]

Thank you Erik,
Can you give us an estimate on when they will be fixed?
Will we need to update something to see the fix?

[Emanuel]

Hope they get back soon!

I thought it was a malfunction only I was experiencing. It's true:
Misery loves company! I'm glad you're working on the problem.
Thanks. ~Dodo

[stucampbell]

Just want to add my voice. Gmail mouse gestures are superb! Can't wait
for the feature to return.

[Connor]

Cant wait to see them back

[Darushimo]

man, i wouldn't be surprised if this feature were delayed because of
potential incompatibility with other gmail labs features, but i gotta
say: if user feedback can be worth anything, this option should be
getting attention WAYYYYYY beyond gmail labs. i think the simplest way
to describe it is: think of the ubiquity of the iphone touch screen
carousel movement. on the touch screen, you can select a song to play
easily. i see your addition much much like that. It's a quality that
apple is trying to fend palm and others from with scary threats, and,
whether or not those threats or legal claims will work in their favor,
it seems reasonable to at least TRY to defend them.

not only does google have a daily growing user base familiar with a
gesture-like ability to scroll through selections, but it's not for no
reason that that user base is growing. the reason: it's intuitive.
it's horribly intuitive that you could go to the next page of a search
result with a mouse gesture. (songs for the iphone, search results,
pictures, emails, whatever for google)

Eric, it looks like you designed this feature. if there's anything i
could say or anything i could do to help push the mouse gesture
feature out of the labs and onto the main search page of Google, let
me know. not only do i think i'd benefit from it greatly, but i think
it could set a new standard in browsing across all sites (times
articles with multiple pages, youtube search results, even dashboard-
style web apps).

and either way, thanks for building such a kick-ass gmail addition.

Erik,
Fyi gestures still does not work. I was wondering when it will
be back?

[Finsternis]

I see some people say that it has been fixed, but it is still broken
for me.

[KeepYourDayJob]

Mouse gestures still AWOL. When will this be fixed???

[Wouter Rosario]

Gestures work again (for me anyway)! Thanks Erik!!

[Tom P]

Mine still doesn't work. I love(d) this feature. Any hints?
Different browser, anything?

[HBE]

[Wouter Rosario]

It worked again yesterday, but no it doesn't work anymore...

[rafaelleano]

Mine's not working as well. I use four different computers and does
not work in any of them (with different browsers: firefox 3, chrome,
explorer and prism)

:( this is a killer feature I just need it please!

[Darooo]

Mouse gestures are still broken :/ I want them back!!!

[Wouter Rosario]

Please don't make us beg ;-)
Gestures is by far the best lab Gmail has. I need it!! (shaking with
withdrawal)

[toml245]

I would also like to see this great labs feature come back.

[JAnderton]

agreed!
I love gestures.. give them back! :(

[Desjardins.Matthew@Gmail]

My absolute favorite feature here, but it's been 11 days since the
original acknowledgment of the problem (though Erik said that it would
only be a few days). Some people have said that their's has been
fixed, which confuses me...

[SamGab]

Hi, Still broken for me too. Really missing this feature!

[dhopp05]

This still seems to be broken :(

[robxb]

It's still not working..is it like this for everyone?

[tibo.aro]

I can't wait Mouse Gestures to come back, that's so much useful and
practical.
I miss them so much !
Mouse Gestures are really great. When they work.

[Dodo]

It has continued to be non-working for me, robxb.

[sam.hockey]

Erik,

Mouse gestures are still not working for me!!

My browser is Google Chrome v. 1.0.154.48

Sam

[smilingstoic]

Not working for me either. Is there something you have to do to get
them back?

[Melo]

Not sure why it's still broken (as of 3/1/09)... and people have had
it work after Erik said the fix is up? I don't get it. :(
At least I'm not alone in not having my gestures still.

I'm using FF 3.0.6 with Gestures enabled.

[Dodo]

Erik, it's time for you give us a status report. What's happening?

[Josh_Melnick]

Erik Arvidsson I will have your baby whatever you want please god,
please fix mouse gestures!

Please SIR I will submit you to get the medal of honor please fix it.
