Edge AU+SP4

I think for the first time I'm actually enjoying the Edge browser. For some reason it is now my browser of choice on the SP4 as it is so fast and fluid. On My desktop I still seem to be defaulting to Chrome.

Give it a couple of more months and I think you'll switch there too :wink:

Install the Mouse Gestures Edge extension and learn to use it with your Surface Pen--it will blow your mind. Lets you perform forward/backward/reload/close tab/top page/bottom page movements with just the flick of the pen.

Is there a tutorial?

Sort of--There's at least a page where it shows all the gestures and lets you change them if you want.

You get to it by clicking the Edge menu (3 dots in the top right corner) and selecting the Mouse Gestures icon. This opens a new tab with the list of gestures in place.

Essentially though, to use the gesture, hold down the right mouse button (if you are using the surface pen, you can either hold the side button, or long press on the screen) then make the gesture.

It might take a few tries to get used to doing it as a fluid motion, but after a day or two I was easily swiping up, down, forward, backward to perform actions.

Thanks, it's a cool extension! It kind of makes up for the loss of the tablet mode version of IE.
