[SOLVED] How to close a tab of an App in background?

Greetings,
I've set up a gesture so that it simulates the Command + W .

The problem is: it only works on the focused App.

Is there a way to make it work on the background Apps?
I mean: I go over a background App with the cursor of the trackpad, I do the gesture, and the background tab closes.

Thank you!

Have you tried "send shortcut to specific app"?

I´m using this.

The "send shortcut to specific app" action should work better than the combination of "activate / bring to front window under cursor" and a shortcut - also it can immediately switch back to the previous app.

However I just noticed I broke something in that action recently. Will be fixed in the next update.

It works, thank you!
I had to activate the Bring App to front before sending and Immediately switch back after sending.
Without this options it doesn't work.
But it's ok.
