ctrl+shift+p to launch toolbar search doesn't work on Firefox
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Ctrl+shift+p doesn't work for me (backslash does). This is on Ubuntu 22.04 and Firefox 114. What happens instead is that a private window is opened, which is the normal behaviour in Firefox.

The above patch adds ctrl+alt+shift+p as an alternate shortcut

This seems to be not working for me on Firefox.

Agreed, this isn't working for me in Firefox (macOS).

Oh, right, the patch only added it for pc, and @Ryasmeen is probably also testing it on mac. We should adjust that -- cmd-shift-p has the same issue as ctrl-shift-p does on windows. Same fix should work -- cmd-alt-shift-p doesn't seem to have any collisions.

I confirm Ctrl+Alt+Shift+P does properly work on Debian GNU/Linux.

Thanks for the nudge, I thought I'd already written that patch. 😂
