Mousegestures - Close Tab/Window

Hi

I'd like to have a mouse gesture that can close tabs or the window.

For example:
I've 2 open tabs. Now I want to perform a mouse gesture (i. e. down, right) and the active tab will be closed. Now I've got only one opened tab. When I perform down,right with only one opened tab, the whole browser window should be closed.

Is there any possibility to create such a mouse gesture?

Thanks in advance

I get that behaviour with the following options..

opera:config#UserPrefs|SDI - OFF
opera:config#UserPrefs|AllowEmptyWorkspace - OFF

Using my ""Close Page" shortcuts forces Opera to shutdown if its the last tab. It means not having the Multiple Document Interface - the ability to tile and cascade tabs inside Opera itself.

I've tried these settings, but the browser window won't close.
When I close my last Tab with the mouse gesture, I get the Speed-Dial Tab, which I can't close with the mouse gesture.

Which Version of Opera do you have?

I've got 10.53 and I guess that this version has a mouse gesture bug.
When I'm at the empty workspace, the mouse gestures won't work. I always get the context menu.
I've got to minimize Opera and then I can use the mouse gestures at the empty workspace. Then the window shuts down.

So I guess I've got to wait for a Opera update, where this bug is fixed.

Thanks a lot for your help
