Hello Francisco,

please tell me:
- Which version of Firefox are you using?
- Do you use any plugins in Firefox?
- What keyboard layout do you use (which language)?

I can't reproduce this issue in Firefox (15.0.1) and we've never had any report that Ctrl+Q is used to quit Firefox so far.


Best regards,
David

Hello David,

I'm using Firefox 15.0.1 on an ArchLinux and my keyboard layout is pt-br/ABNT2.

Before posting this proposal, I googled around to check if it was something specific to my system configuration. I even found an extension to disable the CTRL+Q shortcut: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disable-ctrl-q-shortcut/

My guess is it might be an OS specific shortcut. Reading the comments on the extension page, it suggests the CTRL+Q is the default exit shortcut on many desktop enviroments, except Windows.

Well, I might just install that extension, but it would be nice to have an additional shortcut for the "Add Task" action.

Francisco,

thank you for your feedback, we will investigate this issue and consider adding a different shortcut.


Best regards,
David
