Every time I try to scroll left using two fingers on one of my tables, it is triggering the touchpad’s back gesture in Chrome.

It’s very annoying, but you can turn that off in trackpad settings. I set mine to three-finger swipe instead of two-finger.

In which views are you running into this issue (grid, gallery, kanban)?

Yeah I figured I could turn it off in trackpad settings, but was thinking it was maybe a bug? It doesn’t happen in Google Sheets. And it happens in the grid view and also kanban, but not all of the time.

I experience this in grid view. Very annoying.

To turn off the two-finger swipe scrolling through pages, go to System Preferences > Trackpad > More Gestures > Swipe Between Pages, then select “Swipe with three fingers” from the dropdown.

Will this be fixed? It doesn’t happen for any other project organization website - it’s most definitely a bug here.

@Kasra I am seeing it in the grid view. It manifests on and off. I am on Google Chrome.

Thanks, and just to verify: does it happen when scrolling directly over grid view? It’s expected that the back gesture will trigger if you scroll above the view, for example in the view bar or table tabs area:

@Kasra For me it (triggering back gesture) does happen when scrolled directly over the grid view. Latest MacOS and Chrome Stable Channel.
