This seems to have been introduced with 4.0.16 (2024.6.9):
Add new keyboard shortcut slots "Simulate Up/Down/Left/Right Key on Tree" and assign default shortcuts Alt-Shift-Up/Down/Left/Right. They provide both spatial focus move on faviconized tabs and collapse/expand tree like arrow keys on tree items.
Similar issue to #1995.
Sorry I didn't know "Alt" has different function on macOS. I've pushed a change to reassign default shortcuts as "MacCtrl+Shift+Up/Down/Left/Right".
And you can unassign those shortcuts with the addons manager:
Thanks, that also fixed it for me. Was quite confused, because such a keystroke in a text area (like here on github) suddenly jumped to a different tab 💥
@piroor This fixed it for me, thanks a lot.
For reference: I landed here from https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/option-shift-arrow-now-switches-tabs-since-v-127/m-p/59302 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1901978
Thank you! Also fixed for me - appreciate your quick response!
Thank you for the details! This will save me many minutes of frustration on a daily basis!
Got here from the firefox subreddit, and @piroor's solution fixed it. Thanks!
This was so irritating I almost ditched Firefox for Brave... luckily someone on the Mozilla forum pointed me here. Please don't do this again 😄
Indeed very irritating. Glad it's solved & found this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1449863 which led me here.
All good now All good now
Btw you mention you pushed it.. but does that mean it also reached prod? ie: I used Tamper Monkey to install Tree Style Tabs extension and usually whenever I open up firefox - if there is any update, then Tamper Monkey asks me if I want to install it (in case I have not configured that specific script to be auto-updated)... and saw no no update for the Tree Style Tabs today when I opened my browser.
A new version TST 4.0.18 containing fix for this is already uploaded to the addons website but not published yet because it is still in reviewed...

Hello, after updating to the newest version of TST and changing no other settings for TST or anywhere on my computer (Mac), whenever I try to use the Shift + Opt + Right/Left Arrow keyboard shortcut to select text, it instead collapses the TST tree the selected tab belongs to. If I press those keys again immediately afterward it will move to the previous or next tab. I believe this is related to the TST new shortcut (from the release notes: "Add new keyboard shortcut slots "Simulate Up/Down/Left/Right Key on Tree" and assign default shortcuts Alt-Shift-Up/Down/Left/Right. They provide both spatial focus move on faviconized tabs and collapse/expand tree like arrow keys on tree items.").
I need to be able to opt out of the TST keyboard shortcut to keep my shortcuts as is (i.e. Shift Option Right/Left Arrow should select text, not do anything with TST). Thank you for your help!
