Alt+Shift+S not working on Firefox anymore
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The keyboard shortcut Alt+Sift+s does not work to save an edit in Firefox (44.0a1) anymore. It currently does the same as Alt+s in Firefox (opens History in the Alt-menu).

Need upstream-regression?

Why should "Ctrl+alt+s" work? (Maybe that is browser or OS specific?)
Hovering the mouse over the "Submit changes" button states "Alt+Shift+S" in my Firefox 41 on Linux.

Josve05a renamed this task from Ctrl+Alt+S not working on Firefox anymore to Alt+Shift+S not working on Firefox anymore.Oct 6 2015, 8:42 PM

Sorry, made a "typo".

  • For Chrome Alt+S works to save
  • For Chrome on Chromebooks Alt+Shift+S brings up settings
  • For Firefox (on Windows) Alt+S brings up History-tab in the Alt menu
  • For Firefox (on Windows; up to a few versions ago, 1-2 stable versions?) Alt+Shift+S used to work to save, now does the same as Alt+S above. Something changed.

Alt+Shift+S still works to save here, but running older Firefox 41.

So I'd also guess this is an upstream issue. Cannot see any obvious reports in upstream within the last 60 days: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?chfieldfrom=-60d&longdesc_type=allwordssubstr&chfieldto=Now&component=Keyboard Navigation&product=Firefox
Do you plan to report that to upstream?

Already done, see description for link.

Thanks for finding that upstream ticket! Closing as https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1101975 implies this is fixed in Firefox 49.
