feature: Block two finger touchpad back/forward gesture on the whole browser window

[unaaagy]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The touchpad back/forward gesture is only blocked on the canvas area. However, on the toolbar areas, it isn't. I always have to be careful to not to accidently go back while scrolling the botton color toolbar.

Describe the solution you'd like.

Block the touchpad gesture on the whole window.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

Hi @unaaagy,

Thank you for reporting this! Could you please confirm which browser you are working with?

[unaaagy]

I'm currently using Google Chrome in Fedora 39. Since 2 finger back/forward is not enabled by default I have enabled it by google-chrome --enable-features=TouchpadOverscrollHistoryNavigation

Edit: It also seems to happen in Firefox.

Hi @unaaagy,

I've created an enhancement on Taiga so that we can explore this option, the details can be found here: https://tree.taiga.io/project/penpot/issue/7454
