Unable to input language-specific letters mapped by keyboard shortcuts #50

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
1. Open Fauxbar start page.
2. Place focus either on the address or search field.
3. Press right-alt+l to input polish "ł" letter.
4. Shortcut gets recognized as ctrl+l and focuses address bar instead of 
inputting a letter.

Fauxbar v1.02, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1, Polish keyboard setting.

On polish keyboard settings in Windows, right-alt+l is recognized as 
ctrl+alt+l, causing this issue. It is quite common in various desktop 
applications.

Hadn't heard about these type of shortcuts before, sorry, but thank you for 
enlightening me :)

I've just installed the Polish language pack on my Win7 machine and looked at 
the JavaScript keydown events for Alt+L. Both e.altKey and e.ctrlKey are true 
during this action, so I'll add checks around this - if both Alt and Ctrl are 
pressed, Fauxbar won't switch focus.

Will be fixed in v1.0.3 (which I'm about to publish). If there are still 
issues, please let me know.

Don't worry, I tend to forget about it myself, in spite of being polish ;)

It's great to see such fast response from you - keep up the good work, your 
extension rocks! Hopefully one day Chrome API will let you replace that lousy 
Omnibox completely ;)
