How do I MODIFY the keyboard shortcuts so the combinations are what I desire?

I the default behavior when I click on a URL to be to open it in a new tab.
I also want COMMAND-t to do this
the default command-ENTER requires two hands. Pretty poor human factors design...
And why does the PREFERENCES say "open new window in a new tab instead" This is a nonsensical behavior. If there is a command that says "open a new window' why would anyone want it to behave differently ???

The tab preference "Open new windows in a new tab instead" means that when a website has coded a link to open in a new window, Firefox should divert it to a new tab in your current window.
If YOU choose to open a link in a new window, either using the right-click context menu or by holding down the Shift key when clicking the link, then the preference does not apply to your action.

  • How do I customize Firefox keyboard shortcuts without using an add-on?

    I want to modify shortcuts '''without using add-ons, extensions, or plug-ins'''. In other words, I would like to know how to modify a keyboard shortcut in a way that does '''not '''involve installing a plug-in, extension, or add-on. So, an answer that states that I should install this extension, or that plug-in is a useless answer and will be rated unhelpful as will indicate that you didn't read the question.
    Again: How do I modify a keyboard shortcut '''WITHOUT '''installing any add-ons? For example, how would I change the homepage shortcut from Alt+Home to something else, without installing any add-ons?

    I actually made this happen a few versions back, but I don't remember how I did it. I have looked through the about:config entries and can't find it. I looked through the ...xul keybindings and did not find it. I know it can (or recently could) be done, but I don't remember how.
    The problem with the existing shortcut is that on a laptop, the Home button is frequently sharing space with another key. It is a hassle to have to access Home and the alt key when accessing Home is itself an operation.
    The problem with add-ons is that I cannot, in a reasonably quick momentary glance, determine their safety now, nor in the future as they are updated. Since Mozilla does not certify add-ons as safe, I prefer to avoid them.
    Other programs don't present such difficulties with simple things like modifying shortcuts. It's pretty standard for that to be accessible from a Customize submenu in one of the main drop-downs.

  • How do I export/import keyboard shortcuts to a text file

    How do I export/import keyboard shortcuts to a text file?
    It would be nice to export them, edit and/or add to them in a text editor on my iMac, then import them back into iPhone and iPad.

    You can backup the bookmarks to a file, then copy that file to the new computer and import them, for details see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]].
    You can copy more than just the bookmarks. The user data, such as bookmarks and passwords, are stored in the profile folder. You can copy the data manually by copying the contents of the profile folder, for details see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup Profile backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] or [[Backing up your information]].
    There are some add-ons and utilities that can make this process easier. The first one is the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2109/ FEBE] add-on which can be used to copy a profile. Another option is the free [http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ MozBackup] utility.

  • How can I modify the new Hebrew language icon (א) to revert back to the Israeli Flag ?

    The Hebrew language icon in Mac has always been , at least for the last 20 years! However, in Yosemite, it's now א. How can I modify the icon? There must be a library of images somewhere in the System, where I can replace the icon...
    Thanks for your help!

    The DOM Inspector (DOMi) has a menu item (Edit > Select Element By Click) and a toolbar button "Find a node to inspect by clicking on it" (left icon on the toolbar in the DOMi).
    * open the browser window in the DOMi (File > Inspect <b>Chrome</b> Document) and choose the first entry from the drop-down list.
    * click the "Find a node to inspect by clicking on it" button and use the keyboard (Alt Tab) or the Task bar to go back to the browser window (do not click in the browser window other than the title bar).
    * click that element with the mouse and keep the button pressed until you see a red border to indicate the the DOMi has located that element in the DOM tree.

  • How do you modify the web.xml to lock down the pages from a user role

    how do you modify the web.xml to lock down the pages from a user role

    I'll make a stab at your question:
    The following is an example of where a URL is protected within a web.xml deployment descriptor. In this example, the URL /protectedA within the application is protected:
    <!-- security constraints -->
    <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
    <web-resource-name>protectedA</web-resource-name>
    <url-pattern>/protectedA</url-pattern>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <!-- authorization -->
    <auth-constraint>
    <role-name>sr_developer</role-name>
    </auth-constraint>
    </security-constraint>

  • How do you modify the default Execute thread count in Weblogic Server 9.2?

    How do you modify the default Execute thread count in Weblogic Server 9.2?
    How can you tune the starting number of weblogic.ExecuteThread on server startup and/or set minimum number?
    Is there an option from the console?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks

    Self tuning will automatically manage the threads but however you can still control the min and max by adding the min and max values for each instance either directly adding in config.xml or through JVM settings
    1) Modifying the config.xml
    Just add the following line(s) to each server definition :
    <server>
    <name>AdminServer</name>
    <self-tuning-thread-pool-size-min>100</self-tuning-thread-pool-size-min>
    <self-tuning-thread-pool-size-max>200</self-tuning-thread-pool-size-max>
    </server>
    2) Adding some JVM parameters
    It's safer the following way :
    add the following option in your command line : -Dweblogic.threadpool.MinPoolSize=100

  • In iMovie, how do you modify the duration of all the clips at once?

    In iMovie, using Mavericks O/S, how do you modify the duration of all the clips at once?

    To set the duration of any clips to be added in the future select the project then "Settings" above the viewer.    Adjust the slider to the right of "Clips" to the desired duration.
    To change clips already in the timeline, select all of the ones you want to change (so they have a yellow border), click on "Adjust" then click the info button (i in a circle).  You will see "Duration:"  Set the time in seconds and press return.

  • How can we modify the maximum no. of columns in pivot table ?

    hi all,
    How can we modify the maximum no. of columns in pivot table ?
    do i need to change the nqconfig.ini or instanceconfig file or else?
    thnx..

    A little search on the forum :
    In the instanceconfig.xml add a <PivotView> element under <ServerInstance> if one does
    not exist already.
    Within the <PivotView> element add an entry that looks like:
    <MaxCells>nnnnnn</MaxCells>
    where nnnnnn is your desired limit for the maximum total number of cells allowed
    in a pivot.
    Warning: an excessively large number will cause more memory consumption and
    slower browser performance.The details here :

  • How can you modify the displayed columns on a Related Information List?

    How can you modify the displayed columns on a Related Information List? For example, how could you add the "Type" column to the List of columns displayed for Service Requests when you are viewing the Contacts Detail page?
    Thanks

    I'd have to say I think this is one of the biggest flaws in the OnDemand system currently. The solution I have come up with is to create reports and put them in webapplets showing the data I want to show. I have then removed the standard Related Info List Objects and added weblinks to create new records as the button on the List object is also gone.
    Keep in mind that doing this does slow things down a little, so it may not work if you have a big user base.

  • How to design and modify the content area in Dsktop Inerpage?

    Hi Le,
    What exactly do you want to modify. The Desktop inner page consists of your detailed navigation and the <b>Content Area</b> iview. The content area iview renders all the iviews, pages and whatever you add to your roles.
    So do you want to change the layout of this section or something else?

  • Qosmio X500-15F - How can I modify the DPI?

    Hello
    With Qosmio X500-15F and graphic card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M
    I'm using a professional software for jewelry building (Matrix 6.0 based on Rhinoceros 3D 4.0 SR9). When starting it, the software is asking me to set the DPI to normal.
    How can I modify the DPI? I already tried different resolution settings. It doesn't change the problem.
    Thanks for help

    DPI is how many pixels per inch of the LCD. You can't change that.
    I think the software needs a specific resolution or LCD size. Try lowering the resolution to 1280x800 or try an external monitor.

  • How do i modify the language on pages, i need to be able to write both in english and in spanish.

    how do i modify the language on pages??

    You tell Pages what language the text is by selecting it and applying:
    Inspector > Text > More > Language > Espagñol
    Language is like bold or underlined or ALL CAPS, it is part of the text's style. In fact making it part of a style in the Styles Drawer is a quick way of applying it.
    The default language is whatever you have set the System to.

  • How do I modify the image size on OXO template HP

    the temporary site is "http://printtest2.businesscatalyst.com/"
    this is regarding what appears to be a "catalogue" presented on the homepage of the OXO template site. I want to modify the size of the images but can't find where the code is kept.
    When I'm in "design view" it looks like the content is being called by // {module_webapps,13325,a,}
    and when in "code view" it looks like its called by // {module_productfeaturelist,last,2,Default,,,true}
    Where can I view these pieces of code, or the module screens, and how do I modify the attributes?
    Is the {module_productfeaturelist,last,2,Default,,,true}, embedded in the {module_webapps,13325,a,} and if so, where can I go to see that?
    Thanks very much.
    Scott.

    something is changing the file size (dimensions), the actual dimensions are smaller than what is displayed.
    Can I modify the css through the BC admin interface, if so, where?
    I know this is newbie stuff, but I gotta start somewhere.

  • How can I modify the domain of a comment server?

    Acrobat 9 in Windows 7
    Besides editing the registry, how can I modify the URL for a comment server that I've been using for reviews?
    I earlier initiated a shared review but used only the hostname of the server, not the fully qualified name (FQN) that includes the full domain name. Now, when I reuse that server for other reviews that I initiate, I'm stuck with the unqualified name. Folks outside of my subnet can't publish comments to the server because the simple hostname isn't known on their subnet.
    How can I change the properties of that server so future reviews use the FQN?
    Jerry

    You can't edit the server profile through UI.
    The only way available through Acrobat UI is to first delete the earlier server profile and then re-create it again from the Shared Review Initiation Dialog.
    For deleting the profile, Go to  "Edit menu-> Preferences->Tracker" and from the 'Remove Custome Server Locations' section choose the server profile which you want to delete and click on Remove Server Profile.
