Is it possible to run gesture actions only on window under current mouse position? I have simple back,forward,close gestures for browser and any other app or window. For example, I'll have a windows explorer window open and the active window. But if I move my mouse to my browser and try to close a tab before that browser tab is activated, the windows explorer window closes, not the browser tab.

No, sorry, gestures work on currently active window. You can use a Window field to set the the target window for the command.

You could make a script which would first determine a window under the cursor, activate this window and finally execute the action.

Thanks for the response. I'll either cobble together a script or make different gestures for the non-browser windows. Thanks again
