"Toggle sidebar" shortcut clashes with Bitwarden autofill

pitermach

The Command-Shift-L shortcut to toggle the sidebar introduced in the latest beta clashes with the Bitwarden extension, which uses it for autofill. This means that if I want Bitwarden to fill out something I now need to either do so from the right click menu on a field or bring up the extension with command-SHift-Y and choose the password there which takes longer.

I would prefer the extension key to take precedence or have access to change extension shortcut keys like you can with Chromium browsers to overcome this issue.
Orion 0.99.113-beta (WebKit 613.1.12), using the Bitwarden extension from the "recommended" list.

pitermach What does bitwarden extension use in Safari?

Vlad It's also using Command-Shift-L. If I turn off the Bitwarden extension, then the shortcut toggles the sidebar like in Orion. If the extension is on then it gets the key first.

Vlad

Ok so it seems we should prioritize extension shortcut over ours.

Vlad I don't think you have to preference extension keyboard shortcuts ahead of Orion shortcuts. What I'm finding is even if the Orion shortcut is changed in the Keyboard Preference Pane the Bitwarden shortcut doesn't execute.

Steps to reproduce:
Install Bitwarden from either the chrome or Firefox store (https://bitwarden.com/download/).
Bitwarden uses CMD+SHIFT+L to autofill passwords. Orion uses that shortcut for show/hide sidebar. It's not possible to change Bitwarden's shortcut so you have to reassign Orion's shortcut in the Keyboard system preferences pane.

Expected behavior:
After remapping Orion's show/hide sidebar shortcut, CMD+SHIFT+L should invoke autofill.

It seems like Orion is intercepting CMD+SHIFT+L even after remapping.

@fmccann pardon the ignorance - how can one remap a shortcut in Orion? I see this on the roadmap, didn't realize it's already possible:

Vlad

montrealist You can use macOS settings to remap any keyboard shortcut registered in Orion (not extension shortcut)

Vlad Could you please show how? As far as I know, you can only remap items that appear in the menubar.

I understand that keyboard shortcut remapping is quite low on your priority list, though it's a feature that most power users want, and would fix many similar issues.

Hi, I just downloaded Orion to try it again and I also have this problem. Can you advice what to change exactly? Thanks

+1 to what fmccann said. I've changed the View and Hide Sidebar shortcuts but the BitWarden Cmd+Shift+L autofill shortcut still won't work. This happens for both the Chrome and Firefox versions of the extension on Orion 0.99.115.

Vlad

Not sure what the ask is?

bwbuhse

Vlad the issue is that, since a couple of updates ago, even when you re-bind the Orion Show and Hide Sidebar shortcuts, the BitWarden auto fill shortcut won’t work. I’m not sure if that’s necessarily something you can fix but I’m almost positive it worked at some point.

Vlad

Thanks we will look into it.

Hello,
When I go to the Extensions modal I can't see where I can see and access the shortcuts per extension? For example with Bitwarden I have a shortcut on FireFox to auto-fill the associated password on a given website. The shortcut doesn't work on Orion and when I went to Manage my Extensions to set the shortcut, I cannot see where that is? If it doesn't exist, it should.

Thanks,
