641338 - [ru] Change keyboard shortcut for toggling Addon bar

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Localizations :: ru / Russian, defect)

Description

[Alexander L. Slovesnik]

Current keyboard shortcut for toggling Addon bar (CTRL+/) doesn't work on Russian layout (see Bug 641194). It sucks.
Luckily we can change it through l10n (like sv-SE already did). We just need to pick one that works on both layouts.
I wonder if CTRL+\ will do.

Just checked in Windows 7 and CTRL+\ works in both layouts (en-US and ru). Let's try it and watch for feedback.

It's a WRONG way: here are many other layouts except RU and here are many other shortcuts that don't work in a some other foreign layouts.

A bug must b something about complete redesign of some keyboard procedures

You can file a new bug and post your patch to resolve shortcut hell. Perhaps work in Bug 631165 and dependencies will help to resolve this issue.
Until then I'll stick with remapping / to \ as workaround.
