Firefox

Cr8zy_Ivan ,

Is there a Keyboard Shortcut to put the focus on Firefox's Sidebar?

I use the Add-On "Bookmark search plus 2" which is really awesome. When I activate it's Keyboard Shortcut (Ctrl + Q), the Sidebar opens, but I have to use my mouse to click on the Sidebar to grant it focus. I looked around online and haven't found anything. If anyone knows of a way, a Keyboard Shortcut, a tool or another Add-On perhaps, please let me know! Cheers!

To anyone who would be looking for an answer to my question: I ended up making it work with an AutoHotkey Script. When I press the Hotkeys that open Firefox's Sidebars, I have AutoHotkey automatically place the Mouse Cursor in the Textarea I want, Click, then relocate the Mouse Cursor to where it initially was, in a flash of a second.

Cheers!

@Cr8zy_Ivan No, unfortunately - see & vote for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1502713. (I use BSP2, too.)

I doubt any extension could do it either (new WebExtension API deems such behavior/functionality insecure/too privileged).

I hope it could be customizable by "user.js" or a similar javascript file put in your Firefox profile. If anyone finds anything, report here, please.

Partial alternative: Right click at BSP2 icon > "Open BSP2 in a Tab". Potentially pin the tab. Then Ctrl+TAB to switch back and forth.
For other extensions, figure out "moz-extension://..." URL to their files shown in the sidebar. It may not work exactly well/same as in a sidebar (or it may work better).

Not quite sure if I'm posting at the right place. I would normally be posting this on the Reddit r/Firefox channel. Anyhow, here goes.

I'm trying to get Firefox's Reader View function to work with Outlook Web Emails. It doesn't work on my end and I was wondering if it's perhaps because of a setting or another Add-On I'm using that might interfere with this function. On a side note, I tested another Reader Extensions via the Brave Browser. It seems to work when I'm viewing the overall Emails in the Inbox, but it still doesn't work with an opened Email. Microsoft never ceases to amaze... but anyhow, micro-rant aside, has anyone encountered this behavior? Are there any workarounds?

Here's my initial post on the Mozilla Help forum. I figured I'd try my luck here. Cheers!

Cr8zy_Ivan OP ,

Hey @Hutchpd, thank you so much for all the insights! An Email client or tool to reformat the text might be something. I'll do some research to see if there's anything I could graft onto Outlook... or use "beside" Outlook.

Cheers!

Firefox is my main browser, even on my company computer. However, I still keep google chrome installed spec for this reason. I always have problems trying to use the O365 web interface with Firefox. I just do it on chrome.
