Please note that (all) extensions do not work on add-ons download platforms such as the chrome web store and non-URL sites such as the first page when you open a new tab. See Custom new tab section for some solutions.

Press and hold the right mouse button and drag it to the side to make a “gesture”. A ring will appear around the mouse cursor with eight icons. Place the mouse pointer on the icon representing the action you wish to do then release the mouse button.

The default gesture are:

go to the previous page.
go to the main page.
go to the next page.
refresh page.

go to site: www.Google.com.
go to site: www.Youtube.com.
go to site: www.Facebook.com.
go to site: Extension tutorial.

The ring is customizable, in the settings menu, you can change \ add \ remove actions, as well as, change their locations. The ring size is also customizable, we encourage you to make it as small as you are comfortable with.

You can activate the ring and choose a gesture without moving the mouse, this is especially useful for people using a touchpad. To do this, press and hold right click, then press and hold the arrow keys on the keyboard that correspond to the gesture position on the ring (you can press two arrows for gestures positioned in diagonal). Release the right button while still holding the arrow keys.

If the mouse gestures interfere with some other use of the right click, you can bypass the gesture mechanism by pressing and holding the control button. For more information and permanent solutions please check the Disable extension section.

Below are the supported actions and their icons, note that some of the actions available as mouse combos as well and that additional actions are available using drag options.

If you can't find here your desired action, you can request it, and we will consider to incorporate it in future versions.

Most of the actions choices are self explanatory, a few of them require further clarification:

• Some of the actions will require providing additional information, for example the action "Paste a text" requires the text to be pasted and the name that will be displayed when hovering the action on the options ring.
• The action "Go to the main page" takes you to the main page of the domain.
• "Refresh page" action is the same as pressing the Reload button on the browser in non-private mode.
• "Refresh page without cache" action downloads again all the page data, it is the same as pressing the Reload button on the browser in private mode.
• Some of the actions are state dependent, for example, using Full screen action in full screen mode will exit the full screen mode.

Close tabs by double clicking the *right or middle mouse button.
You can change the speed needed for double tapping in settings.
*Please note that on Edge the double tapping right button combo works only if done while moving the mouse, the double tapping middle button combo works normally.

Open a new tab by pressing the left button while holding the right button.

Change tabs by Scrolling the wheel button while the right button is pressed.
You can change the tab switching direction in settings.

Go to the top or bottom of the page by scrolling the middle button up or down while it is pressed.

Zoom in or out by scrolling the middle button up or down while it is pressed.
This feature uses the same combo as the “Go to the top or bottom of the page” feature. To use this feature, you will have to replace the other feature in settings.

All combos can be disable in settings.

All browser extensions can't work on the default new tab page. To bypass this issue Power Mouse X uses a custom new tab page.

You can open this custom new tab by one of two ways:
   1) Use the mouse combo for a new tab.
   2) Use the "open new tab" gesture.

Like the default new tab page, our custom new tab displays a search box and shortcuts to sites. In the settings page you can choose the search engine and configure the site's shortcuts below the search box. By default the shortcuts are for your top sites.

Power mouse X tries to predict your next page. While browsing a site such as a shopping site, a search engine, a forum etc, you can use these methods to go to the next page: using the "Go forward" gesture, pressing Alt + → or using the mouse forward button (available on some mouses). Use this feature on Youtube to watch the next video in the playlist.

Predictions work better on some sites more than others, sometimes its works great, sometimes it doesn't work and often it works only from the second page of the list of results. Experiment with it on your favorite sites.

Some computer mouses have extra side buttons that are usually used for quick browser back and forward navigation. PowerMouseX allows you to add functionality to these buttons.

In the settings page, choose from the scrollbar one of the dozens of actions you want to activate on a button press. You will also need to choose the forward button (button #5) primary goal:
If you set it on "forward" the browser will first attempt to navigate forward and if such option doesn't exist it will perform the action.
If you set it on "forward & prediction" the browser will first attempt to navigate forward and if such option doesn't exist it will try to predict the next page, if he can't he will perform the action.
If you set it on "action", pressing the forward button will only perform the action and will never be used to navigate forward.

If you have a paid subscription you can also add functionality to a combination made of pressing side buttons while holding one of the primary mouse buttons.

The easiest way to access the extension settings or to pause the extension on a site is via the pop-up menu that appears when pressing the extension icon. If the Power Mouse X icon do not appear in the toolbar you can fix that this way:

In Chrome Press the puzzle icon next to the address bar. Then press the pin icon next to the extension name.
In Edge Press the puzzle icon next to the address bar. Then press the eye icon next to the extension name.
In Firefox Right-click next to the address bar and choose "Customize Toolbar". Then drag the extension icon to the toolbar.

If the mouse gestures or drag options temporarily interfere, for example by preventing a pop up menu to appear, you can bypass the issue by pressing and holding the control button before using the mouse.

Another option is to disable the extension for your current site or for all sites by pressing in the toolbar (next to the address bar) and toggling the switches. If the icon is missing, read the previous section.
