Regarding the 'settings for gesture direction', please consider adding a 4th option to disable the directions.

Thanks

Hi, marc
I will add disable option at next　release.

Thanks for this wonderful add-on!

I think there is a bug: when you drag a link and then hold it still for a while, you see "Paste link URL to address bar". This is not an option as far as I know and I cannot find a way to turn this off..

Posted by Change at 2006-07-18 18:59

Hi, Change.

It`s not a bug and only for "Open Link ~" gestures feature. The gesture returns to the origin, if you moves it again.
There is no setting to which this function is changed yet ,but I will make it.

Okay thanks for the quick response and explanation yukichi! Would be great if I could turn this option off so the function that is activated upon move will stay active when you hold the mouse still :)

Really find it fantastic that you've picked up Super Drag and Go and made it much better too!

Hi!

I really like you extension!
But there is a feature i miss...
I would really appreciate it if you could add a "Save Image in Specified Folder" for the selected text aswell ..........

preferably naming it like the title of the page the text is from, or the url if no title is present. And if that name already exists (or mabye always) adding the date time of saving.......

Hi, Holger

Thanks for the request.
I`ll try.

is it possible to let the built-in firefox download manager or "download statusbar" respectively handle downloas initiated with drag de go instead of using its built-in internal handler???

Posted by tommi at 2006-08-22 19:39

Hi tommi,
Ok, I will make it passible to select built-in firefox download manager.

Posted by yukichi at 2006-08-22 21:58

thanks, you're a hero ;-)

Hi,
first off all. thx a lot for this great extension.
love it!

perhaps im missing something, but it should be possible that e.g. mozilla.com is handled as link. if i select mozilla.com its always treated as text, not as link.

regards

Hey yukichi,
i am a big fan of your drag and go extension

but there is one issue .. when you drag a link while another text is selected on the page (even it is far down) .. the link is not opened in a new link but the selected text gets the lead and gets searched using the searchengine

Any way of making it the other way around?
