Allow remapping extension keyboard shortcuts
Brief Summary
Both Chrome and Firefox allow customising shortcuts for extensions. I might be missing something, but I don't believe this is possible with Orion.
Details:
It's very helpful to be able to change shortcuts for commonly used shortcuts in case of conflicts with other shortcuts or long time preference.
Many thanks for the great browser, I'm really enjoying it!
I would love to contribute an MR for this if Orion is open-source somewhere.
thethongngu No but feel free to apply for a job in Orion team and get paid doing it!
Hello,
This is my very first visit to Orion Feedback after installing the browser (and subscribing to Kagi). I landed here because upon installation the first two things I did was (1) trying to install the main extensions I currently used in Chrome in Orion (it worked); (2) trying to duplicate the shortcut system I have in Chrome. The key shortcut I use all the time is cmd-D, to bookmark. But I do not use Chrome’s native bookmark system. I instead rely (have been relying for over a decade) on an app I can trigger via an extension (Pinboard). Bookmarking is something I do on the fly all the time, for research purpose, using the cmd-D shortcut. In Orion, cmd-D triggers the native bookmark system. All I would need to be able to use Orion is to remap this shortcut to the Piboard extension I now have installed. Very happy to pay for Orion Plus once this becomes an option.
The "chrome://extensions/shortcuts" page on Chrome that allows configuring extension specific shortcuts seems to be pretty standard kind of page across most browsers.
More importantly, oftentimes when you try to click on the options for a chrome extension, it is unable to load its options page since that page in Chrome is typically under "chrome-extension://{extension ID}"; however no such thing seems possible in Orion browser.
Configuring options and settings is typically kind of essential for using extensions...
Pleased to anounced that we have the first version of support for this just released in Orion RC. Let us know how it works!
