mouse shortcut (Firefox) to jump to top of page

<< < (2/3) > >>

Sometimes I get lazy and don't want to reach for the home key on the keyboard.  I would rather use my mouse to go to top page of a site without scrolling with the mouse. -techidave (March 16, 2013, 06:36 AM)

I am running Waterfox, so my home key does almost nothing. I have never before been wanting to use mouse gestures, but Waterfox is making it a necessity. However, merely looking at All-in-one Gestures made me tired; I want two features, not a hundred and seventeen! Sorry, skwire, I can't take this much fun, when browsing. So instead I went for this:

About this Add-on:
Scroll to Top/Bottom adds toolbar buttons and context menu options for jumping to the top or bottom of the current page.

I don't use them all.  I blanked them all out and defined just the few that I use.  Namely, back, forward, refresh, new tab, close tab, next tab, previous tab, top of page, bottom of page, and load URL from clipboard.

I use the Fire Gestures addon and I have set the "up" gesture to "scroll to top of webpage"

it is very convenient and ideal for uber-lazy people

techidave:
haven't been a fan of mouse gestures.  I am trying Scroll to top/bottom.  seems to work ok.

One of the extensions in Firefox I can't live without is "Back to top":

One rightclick, and one click to go to top of page. Done!

This is done without almost no mouse movement. Of course you can also use it for going to the end of the document.

There are some options if you want to adjust its behavior.
