keyconfig 20110522

Changing browser.ctrlTab.previews to true about:config might be what you want (holding down Ctrl longer will open the preview, but just a single Ctrl+Tab will switch directly).

browser.ctrlTab.previews had been already true.

Maybe my words are not clear.
If I have tab 1 ~ 10.
I view tab2,then I view tab7.
I want to come back tab2.
Then I back tab7,then back tab2,tab7,tab2,tab7......

A Shortcuts to focus the previous selected tab is Ctrl+Tab.
Another Shortcuts to focus the next selected tab is Ctrl+shift+Tab.

I want to make them to one Shortcuts,ONLY ONE.

Might anyone make it come ture??

That is what Ctrl+Tab does for me if the pref is enabled (Ctrl+Shift+Tab instead opens the All Tabs Preview, the same as with browser.allTabs.previews).
Maybe you have any Tab related extensions installed which change or break that behavior (Tab Mix Plus, for example, seems to break it if browser.ctrlTab.recentlyUsedLimit is lower than 2).

Thx~
I can use Ctrl+Tab to switch two tabs.
But how can I make "Ctrl+Tab" to one key by keyconfig??

Is there any workaround possible with keyconfig for Bug 78414?
For example I'd like to close tab when plugin has focus. Is there anything I can add in front of

Code: Select all

BrowserCloseTabOrWindow()

so that I can close the tab without clicking around first.
Thanks in advance.

This extension is perfect to change thunderbird's close tab hotkey (Ctrl-W) to the habitual Ctrl-F4.

Many thanks dorando!

Both Keyconfig and MenuManipulator are showing up as incompatible with Firefox 3.6.6.

Any chance of an update to both of these?

Try

Code: Select all

ctrlTab.open();
ctrlTab.pick();

Nope. You might be able to use an external program like AutoHotkey to achieve what you want.

Both Keyconfig and MenuManipulator are showing up as incompatible with Firefox 3.6.6.

Compatibility information has been updated, it might be necessary to click on Tools > Add-ons > Find Updates (which might incorrectly state at the top that "No updates were found" while "A compatibility update has been applied" as stated below the extension name) if the extensions didn't got re-enabled already.

Note that it is possible to disable the compatibility enforcing by adding a boolean 'extensions.checkCompatibility.3.6' through about:config.

Thanks! Incidentally, the actual xpi downloads still seem to be the same. Will they be updated at some point as well?

Hello...

Was pointed here from a desire to change the hotkey combo for toggling the new Quickfilter toolbar in TB 3.1.

I'm hesitant to install extensions that are not officially supported at the Addons site, but have heard about keyconfig for many years so wouldn't mind making an exception. That said, I also read on the first post page that keyconfig won't actually *change* a key binding, it only adds others?

What I'm trying to resolve is the irritation caused by Ctrl-F being used for both the new Quickfilter toolbar *and* the 'Find in this message' toolbar... I want to assign Ctrl-Alt-F for the new Quickfilter toolbar, and let Ctrl-F be used for the Find in this message toolbar. Can I accomplish this with keyconfig?

Thanks...

It is work~

Not for compatibility information updates since these are also retrieved during installation.

Try disabling "Toolbars > Quick Filter Bar" and Add a new key containing

Code: Select all

SetFocusMessagePane();
document.getElementById("FindToolbar").onFindCommand();  

for Ctrl+F, and

Code: Select all

QuickFilterBarMuxer._showFilterBar(true);
document.getElementById(QuickFilterManager.textBoxDomId).select();  

for Alt+Ctrl+F (unlike Toolbars > Quick Filter Bar this shouldn't switch between Quick Filter and Find).

Note that Find and Replace… in the Compose window uses the same id (key_find) and will be disabled too, so you might need to add another one containing

Code: Select all

goDoCommand('cmd_find') 

to the Compose window (select it from the dropdown while the Compose window is open). Use a different name for that shortcut otherwise it will overwrite the other custom key.

Thanks! That worked... sortof...

Is there any way to make it a toggle effect? Meaning, 1st Ctrl(-Alt)-F toggles it on, 2nd Ctrl(-Alt)-F toggles it off, etc?

Not a big deal I guess, because Esc works to toggle both off once they are visible, but it would be less confusing for our users if the same key combo just acted as a toggle.

Many thanks for the tip!

Try

Code: Select all

var FindToolbar = document.getElementById("FindToolbar");

if(document.commandDispatcher.focusedElement != FindToolbar._findField.inputField) {
 SetFocusMessagePane();
 FindToolbar.onFindCommand();
} else {
 FindToolbar.close();
} 

and

Code: Select all

var textWidget = document.getElementById(QuickFilterManager.textBoxDomId);

if(!QuickFilterBarMuxer.activeFilterer.visible || document.commandDispatcher.focusedElement != textWidget.inputField) {
 QuickFilterBarMuxer._showFilterBar(true);
 textWidget.select();
} else {
 QuickFilterBarMuxer._showFilterBar(false);
}

Hi All,

I've browsed through this thread but was unable to find a simple function I'm trying to do. Specifically, I'm rotating between tabs and need to do something like:

Go to tab 1
Ctrl-S
Go to tab 2

I've pieced together the source to look something like:

gBrowser.selectTabAtIndex(0, event);
?
gBrowser.selectTabAtIndex(2, event);

I'm not sure what the second line should be. It seems simple and I've tried entering various commands without success. Any suggestions?
