This extension introduces convenient circle menu (so-called pie menu) to improve interaction with your browser. Just hold down the right mouse button, highlight one of the preset actions and release the button.

Circle menu recreates the way mouse gestures were represented in good old Opera 12 browser, and allows to clearly see all available gestures, with no need to remember them all.

  • Regular actions, such as 'Go back', 'New tab', 'Scroll to top' etc.
  • Separate gestures for links, images, input fields etc.
  • Support for rocker gestures and mouse wheel gestures
  • Supports horizontal wheel gestures - great on mouses with horizontal wheel, such as MX Master
  • Support for trigger on long left click
  • Great customization options - add actions levels, set their width and color for each action
