268550 - Alt-D shortcut does not work in Polish locale due to clash with menu shortcut

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Mozilla Localizations :: pl / Polish, defect)

Description

[Marcin Kasperski]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; pl-PL; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040917 Firefox/0.9.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; pl-PL; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040917 Firefox/0.9.3

While using firefox with Polish locale, the *very* useful shortcut Alt-D (go to
url field) does not work - instead of going to url field it opens Go menu.

The reason is simple: someone decided to use letter d as shortcut for Go menu
(in Polish it is 'Przejdź').

Please, change the menu shortcut somehow (maybe just change Przejdź to Idź and
use I as menu shortcut?), so Alt-D works again as in English version.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Polish locale
2. Open Firefox
3. Press Alt-D

Actual Results:  
Przejdź (Go) menu is open

Expected Results:  
Place cursor within url field and highlight the current content of this field.

Minor note: this bug would suit the 'Internationalization' component, but there
is  no such in firefox bugzilla....

One more note: as I checked, KDE team uses 'Id¼' with shortcut Alt-I as Polish 
translation for Go menu.

Confirming.
-> marcoos, since he's responsible for Fx localization in pl-PL

Use CTRL+L. The shortcuts with CTRL+<key> are the same in all l10ns and mostly
common for all platforms (on Mac - s/CTRL/Cmd/).

Changing "Przejdz" to "Idz" is a bad choice, it does not sound very natural.
Also, "idz" is rather a translation of "be going" than "go". :-)

If we are to change it, I'd rather go the Epiphany/Galeon way and change the
accesskey for "Przejdz" to Alt+r.

If alt+r is not used, I'm Ok for this change.

Marcoos: you want to have it tracked here, or moved to bugs.firefox.pl ?

It seems that alt+r is available. Gonna fix this in 1.1.

Comment 7

[Marek Stępień [:marcoos, inactive]]

This was fixed some time ago during l10n migration to trunk.

"Go" is still (and always will be) "Przejdz", but the accesskey is now "r", so
Alt+D puts focus into the address bar.

Resolving WORKSFORME.
