keyconfig 20110522

[firefoxuse]

thanks!!

[firefoxuse]

something a bit off-topic:

this addon seems very powerful for key bindings, wouldnt there be nice to have one for clicks and gestures ? (i am aware of the current implementations, but ofcourse they dont offer the power of coding to the end-user)

[firefoxuse]

by the way, instead of having a forum thread of people asking CODE for various functions, why dont you include the CODE of all the possible functions in the addon itself?

Try FireGestures.

by the way, instead of having a forum thread of people asking CODE for various functions, why dont you include the CODE of all the possible functions in the addon itself?

Neither does a finite number of functions exist (Add-ons and new Application versions can add more, remove others) nor does a finite number of possible combinations of those (or their parameters). But including some commonly sought code and providing tools to get others more easily, would be an option.

Is it possible to add a hotkey for unloading all tabs like Firefox does when resuming a saved session?

[firefoxuse]

i have added in keyconfig a binding:
F1 = BrowserOpenTab();
but it doesnt work
maybe something overrides it?
any solution?
thanks!

I rewrote the getCommand code snippet with a confirm dialog to copy the command.

viewtopic.php?p=12486071#p12486071

Code: Select all

function getCommand(aEvent) {
  window.removeEventListener("command", getCommand, true);
  aEvent.preventDefault();
  aEvent.stopPropagation();
  as.showAlertNotification(image, title, "event listener is removed");
  var win = null;
  var label = aEvent.explicitOriginalTarget.getAttribute("label") ||
    aEvent.originalTarget.getAttribute("label");
  if (label) {
    title = title + " : " + label;
  }
  var description = aEvent.originalTarget.getAttribute("oncommand") ||
    aEvent.originalTarget.getAttribute("onclick");
  description = description.search(/\x29$/) > -1 ?
    description + ";" : description;
  description = description.replace(/\s\s+/g, " ");
  var flags = ps.BUTTON_POS_0 * ps.BUTTON_TITLE_IS_STRING +
    ps.BUTTON_POS_1 * ps.BUTTON_TITLE_IS_STRING +
    ps.BUTTON_POS_2 * ps.BUTTON_TITLE_IS_STRING;
  var button0 = "Copy";
  var button1 = "Cancel";
  var button2 = null;
  var message = null;
  var state = {value: false};
  if (description) {
    var choice = ps.confirmEx(win, title, description, flags,
      button0, button1, button2, message, state);
    if (choice == 0) {
      var ch = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/widget/clipboardhelper;1"].
        getService(Components.interfaces.nsIClipboardHelper);
      ch.copyString(description);
    }
  }
}
var as = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/alerts-service;1"].
  getService(Components.interfaces.nsIAlertsService);
var ps = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/embedcomp/prompt-service;1"].
  getService(Components.interfaces.nsIPromptService);
var image = "chrome://mozapps/skin/places/defaultFavicon.png";
var title = "Get Command";
window.addEventListener("command", getCommand, true);
as.showAlertNotification(image, title, "event listener is added");

It is possible to create an event to use with a command that has an event as a parameter.

Example:

* execute code
* left click "View" menu
* left click "Reload" menu item

Code: Select all

BrowserReloadOrDuplicate(event);

Code: Select all

// skip cache
// create a shift key command event
var commandEvent = document.createEvent("XULCommandEvent");
commandEvent.initCommandEvent("command" /* type */,
  true   /* bubbles     */,
  true   /* cancelable  */,
  window /* view        */,
  0      /* detail      */,
  false  /* ctrlKey     */,
  false  /* altKey      */,
  true   /* shiftKey    */,
  false  /* metaKey     */,
  null   /* sourceEvent */
);
BrowserReloadOrDuplicate(commandEvent);

Code: Select all

// duplicate tab
// create a middle button mouse event
var mouseEvent = document.createEvent("MouseEvent");
mouseEvent.initMouseEvent("click" /* type */,
  true   /* bubbles       */,
  true   /* cancelable    */,
  window /* view          */,
  0      /* detail        */,
  0      /* screenX       */,
  0      /* screenY       */,
  0      /* clientX       */,
  0      /* clientY       */,
  false  /* ctrlKey       */,
  false  /* altKey        */,
  false  /* shiftKey      */,
  false  /* metaKey       */,
  1      /* button        */,
  null   /* relatedTarget */
);
BrowserReloadOrDuplicate(mouseEvent);

There may be a problem with another extension.

PS,

I edited my post in the close per filter thread, not sure if you saw it.

The solution should work with the keyconfig extension.

Hello,

When I follow a link which open a new window, keyconfig doesn't work in the new window.
Steps to reproduce the issue :
0. open the firefox preference, choose Tabs, uncheck "Open new windows in a new tab instead"
1. open keyconfig panel
2. add a new shortcut (ie: ZoomIn on Shift+3 key with code FullZoom.enlarge()) and check the global flag.
3. click here
4. Test the shortcut Shift+3 => it does nothing
5. Return in this windows
5. Test the shortcut Shift+3 => it works fine

Is it a bug ?

Maybe it was caused by the patch for Bug 492931 - Case change algorithm in DOM should use ASCII upper/lowercasing (Firefox 13) which was partly backed out in Bug 776075 - Command keys using upper-case non-ASCII characters are broken (Firefox 16).

thanks for looking into it. Option-keys appear to be working properly as of FF17 regardless of letter/symbol notation so bug 492931 was indeed the likely culprit.

is it possible by pressing ALT to click GO button, only when focus is inside address bar?

thanks

Is there a way to assign a keystroke to go to the inbox of specific mail account? I use three or four mail accounts and it would be nice to go to a particular inbox with a single keystroke.

The following goes to the Global Inbox (Inbox of Local Folders) and makes the thread pane current. You ought to be able to go to any mail folder by changing the second line.

Code: Select all

SetFocusThreadPane();
SelectFolder('mailbox://nobody@Local%20Folders/Inbox');
SetFocusThreadPane();

Thank you! So I would just substitute the name of my mail account where your code has "Local%20Folders"?

Find out the mailbox URL for the server in question, it doesn't necessarily start with nobody@. Maybe by finding out where an attachment or a message is "copied from" when using Save As, I'm not sure.
