406834 - Use better Back/Fwd commandkeys

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Localizations :: fi / Finnish, defect)

Description

[Stefan [:stefanh]]

Attachment: Use "Ö" and "Ä" for Back/Fwd commandkeys. I'm not sure if you want this (should probably check with finnish mac people).

For a description about the problem, see bug 306585. See also bug 406831 for the Swedish version. We couldn't do this in 1.8 on mac because of bug 294286.

It appears that I missed a lot of stuff. I can attach a new patch if you want this (like in bug 406831).

Reassigning back to default in the meantime.

No, this is fine Stefan. Thanks. I'm looking into this. 

One question for me is the impact this will have on existing Windows users relying on [ and ]. There's no way to limit this change only to Mac OSX AFAIK (wrt Firefox).

I'd argue that it's easier to use "Ä" and "Ö". But I'm no windows user :-)

These keys ([,]) are not bound on Windows at all... my bad. Irrespective of that I'm going ahead with the change as I haven't heard anything bad and this does really seem a like a good idea. Landing changes, will verify and then close the bug.

Looking good. Closing as FIXED.
