di Juanka Hula, há 8 anosI was asking if you could create a new addon. Also by default vanilla firefox does not do anything with double left click so I dont see what would be the problem with it.
>Great addon. Could you make one to open a new tab by double left clicking on a tab?

publicât ai há 8 anosDouble click is a common gesture which is used for various other useful purposes, so that wouldn't be a part of this add-on.
EDIT 2:
In case you are asking about double left clicking on the tab header itself, I believe that is not supported in the new WebExtensions architecture used by Firefox.
EDIT 1:
Double left click (and also triple left click) is very often used for selecting text. Apart from that, various websites use double click for some common UI/UX operations. Hence, in my opinion, such conflicting shortcuts/gesture shouldn't be used.
But, in case you still want such a functionality, you can modify this extension to create a new one by following these steps:
- Go to https://github.com/webextensions/close-tab-by-double-right-click
- Download the code as a zip file by clicking on the "Clone or download" button
- Extract the downloaded zip file
- In the extracted file close-tab-by-double-right-click.js , modify the line which says:
if (e.which !== 3) {
MODIFY THIS LINE TO
if (e.which !== 1) {
- Reference: The above mentioned line can also be currently seen at: https://github.com/webextensions/close-tab-by-double-right-click/blob/master/extension/scripts/close-tab-by-double-right-click.js#L9
- After that, you may zip the files inside the extension folder and use that to create the add-on via https://addons.vaultpit.io/ for your use. While publishing, if you wish to use the extension for personal use only, then there should be an option for self-distributed add-ons, you may want to select that.
Hope that helps :-)

- Valutade 4 su 5di 囶 ．, há 13 diasLM22.1 Double click on the Window inside the TAB window. i thought right clicking the actual TAB while NOT Selected to close it. WILL NOT WORK. accidental double right click while typing message occurs ; make sure you have the undo close tab when using this add-on.
is there an update for the dbl-right on the TAB instead of the Window.
also if dbl clicking tab would shrink the Tab to Icon Size. - This add-on works perfectly - using its current left-click-right-click. On every website I've used it on, it's worked properly. That said: I had to disable this extension. There are too many times where I'll close a tab that I didn't want closed. Notably, I'll double-left-click text (to select it), then immediately right-click on that text (to get the context menu for options), and the tab will close. That's such a common click pattern with webpage text, I can't keep this otherwise excellent extension.
- Valutade 2 su 5di Utent Firefox 12370795, há 2 anosUPDATE:
Again, it does NOT work on every website. It closes a tab just by clicking right click only. Very annoying !!!
Previously I had given 5 stars, THEN it was not working anymore with the double-right-click action so it went down to one star and now it's working again cause the developer made a clever change with this Close tab by left-click-immediately-followed-by-right-click. - Valutade 3 su 5di Utent Firefox 16599519, há 3 anosBroken as of FF102. Will still work if you move between clicks however. Rights to Close EX does the same thing and works without moving the mouse but removes the context menu unless you hold ctrl.

publicât ai há 3 anosThank you for the feedback :-)
The issue has now been fixed (with a slightly updated gesture). Please find more details at https://github.com/webextensions/close-tab-by-double-right-click/issues/12
Kindly note that it might take a few days/weeks before the updated extension gets approved by Mozilla and becomes available on the Mozilla add-ons store. Rispueste dal svilupadôr

Think of it as the equivalent of a Ctrl+W with your other hand. Invaluable!
- Valutade 5 su 5di Utent Firefox 17180155, há 4 anos
- Valutade 4 su 5di Utent Firefox 15428448, há 4 anosIts closing the page with a single right click on v 102. Even when I just right click on a link. The right/left thing doesnt work. Hope youre able to find a fix as its a great app and I miss it! I had to disable this app for now.
- Valutade 4 su 5di MisfortuneCookie, há 4 anosDoes what it says on the tin. Unfortunately, the right click menu is opened after the tab is closed. C'est la vie.

- Valutade 5 su 5di Utent Firefox 14388158, há 7 anos
- Valutade 4 su 5di Utent Firefox 14526812, há 7 anosafter tab closes the right click menu remains open on the next tab. Can this be changed so that the menu is auto closed?
- Valutade 3 su 5di Darvin Atkeson, há 7 anosIt works incredibly well but causes some issues with various sites such as Facebook. Most notable symptom is dialog boxes where comments would go do not show up. I have tried it with and without the Stylus plugin. Turning Double Right Click plugin off and reloading the Facebook page seems to resolve the problem but I really, really want this feature.
If I can provide any assistance on troubleshooting it let me know. It's an excellent add on!
