Turn advanced gestures on/off

Turning on advanced gestures gives you two additional gestures, previous
and next, and also changes the way you make the back gesture and the
forward gesture in Web.

Previous and next gestures: The previous and next gestures let you move
among your open applications without first going to Card view. The
previous gesture is a full swipe from left to right across the entire length of
the gesture area. The next gesture is a full swipe from right to left across
the entire length of the gesture area. Use these gestures when you have
more than one app open and an app is displayed full-screen. By making
the previous and next gestures you go from full-screen view to full-screen
view of each app. The order of applications is determined by the order
that you opened them or arranged them in Card view.

Change to the back gesture and to the forward gesture in Web:

The back

gesture still goes from right to left in the gesture area, but you must make
a shorter swipe. The forward gesture in Web also requires a shorter
swipe.
