Keyboard Commands (hotkeys) #7

UberPanda · 2016-10-07T22:53:58Z

Either I missed it or the current state of completion in chrome extension is only through mouse based interaction.
I do not think I am the only one thinking that keyboard based interaction would be nice too.

kspearrin · 2016-10-07T23:12:04Z

Good suggestion,

How would you expect the hotkeys to work? I am not a huge hotkey user myself as far as browser usage is concerned, so I may not be the best to define this feature.

One option could be with the browser omnibox API. https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/omnibox

UberPanda · 2016-10-08T12:46:22Z

My current habit (which comes from using keepassx) would be something like :

Type a key combination (ctrl + shift + n in my case) which prompts available completions, navigate through them with arrows and select one with enter.
Hotkeys could also be used to create a new entry.
Thus, I do not think that omnibox would be a good solution. However the commands api should do the trick : https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/commands

kspearrin · 2016-10-08T15:43:10Z

Excellent. I'll put this on the roadmap for an upcoming release.

In the meantime if anyone has an opinion on what these hotkey command combinations should be, I'll definitely take that into consideration.

kspearrin · 2016-10-08T20:40:06Z

Check out 691d262

Now it's as simple as Ctrl+Shift+Y, tab through your available logins for the website in the current tab, and press enter to autofill.

Also added a hotkey to generate a random password to your clipboard.

UberPanda · 2016-10-09T12:32:07Z

Seems nice for now.
Next step would be being able to customize hotkeys, but that looks like quite a bit more work.

kspearrin · 2016-10-09T14:20:14Z

The hotkeys are fully customizable via the browser extension settings. These are just the defaults.

UberPanda · 2016-10-09T14:53:10Z

Indeed, seems to work fine. Might need a little visual refinement though (currently I can only see which login is selected through a very thin blue highlight, more explicit highlighting might be a plus).

kspearrin · 2016-10-09T21:33:56Z

Yea, it just needs some additional styling for the focus state. Will see what I can do.

blockloop · 2016-10-11T00:32:18Z

I have a manually configured LastPass keyboard shortcut which I can set in the options.

kspearrin · 2016-10-11T03:27:30Z

This should help: 97fe375

blockloop · 2016-10-11T03:50:04Z

@kspearrin when will this make it to the Chrome store?

kspearrin · 2016-10-11T03:52:40Z

@blockloop it's there now with 1.1.0 (might take ~30 minutes or so to propagate) https://github.com/bitwarden/browser/releases/tag/v1.1.0

UberPanda · 2016-10-11T07:22:54Z

Just noticed that if you use the addon, you would get something like :

shortcut
Tab(s)
Enter (that fills the login)
What should happen : enter which actually logs you in

But then pressing enter would not do anything. A simple way to solve this would be setting the text cursor to be at the end of the filled password. Another way would be to include the enter in the plugin after typing the password (as keepass would do by default).

blockloop · 2016-10-11T14:49:35Z

I've updated and restarted Chrome and I'm still not able to use the keyboard shortcuts. I don't even see that command as an option in the shortcuts menu. I'm on OSX if that somehow matters.

kspearrin · 2016-10-11T22:39:04Z

@blockloop You don't see what command? I see both supported commands there now. "Activate the extension" is the one that will open the extension to the "Current Tab" page.

It appears the that default that I picked for OSX (Command+Shift+Y) is already taken by something else in the browser and therefore loses that binding. This is why you are seeing "Not set". You can choose to set it to whatever you like.

If you can, please recommend me a good default for OSX since it seems the one I have chosen cant work there.

blockloop · 2016-10-12T00:28:32Z

Ah. I was looking for a command to "fill form." I misunderstood. I used CTRL \ (backslash) with LastPass. I don't think it had any issues.

EDIT: looks like the only thing I could find that wasn't conflicting was ALT Comma. I used ALT G for generating a secure password (stole that from LastPass)

SylwesterZarebski · 2017-04-15T09:34:27Z

What about Firefox - how can I change shortcut?

kspearrin · 2017-04-15T13:40:04Z

@SylwesterZarebski Unfortunately Firefox does not allow you to change the shortcut at this time.

SylwesterZarebski · 2017-04-15T21:28:54Z

Thanks, that's sad, but i'll wait for new version which allows to change key shortcut (like LastPass or other addons).

kspearrin · 2017-04-15T22:03:56Z

You'll find that the new version of lastpass for Firefox coming out soon will also lose this functionality. This all has to do with the move to web extensions which is not as feature rich for Firefox yet as the older Firefox apis.

shkm · 2017-07-22T09:23:55Z

Great that we have a shortcut, but two requests below. I use Firefox.

I have to hit tab twice to get to my list of logins, which isn't ideal.
If there's only one login available, can it just autofill when pressing the shortcut?

ermsdev · 2020-02-02T04:34:06Z

Would it be possible to do something like Alfred for Mac OS where results are numbered? For instance, pressing Cmd+3 selects the 3rd option. If browsers don't allow extensions to assign their own shortcuts, then could there be user assignable shortcuts for each of the first few matching items?

KevinNSTA · 2020-02-05T19:18:25Z

@stephenermshar this is a pretty old request, probably should just make a feature request here https://community.bitwarden.com/c/feature-requests

They Migrated away from Issues as Feature Requests a while back - like a couple years I think

shkm · 2020-02-06T06:47:12Z

There's this feature request:

https://community.bitwarden.com/t/add-essential-keyboard-shortcuts-navigation/76/47

akaleeroy · 2020-04-18T09:04:11Z

So Bitwarden doesn't have Omnibox API integration? What's the "power-user" login sequence presently?

For example LastPass on Chromium:

Alt+D to go to address bar
lp Spacebar to select the LastPass extension's search engine
Type acmeforums
↓ to select ACME Inc. Forums from suggestions
Enter

PsychoData · 2020-04-18T16:00:41Z

It is reprogrammable with Chrome. You can check what you have it set to under chrome://extensions/shortcuts
For example I use both 1 Password X (Chrome) at - Ctrl-Shift-X
and I have BitWarden customized to Ctrl-Shift-S

But I believe the default for BitWarden (By clearing my choices) is Ctrl-Shift-Y

1024mb · 2020-04-25T17:02:15Z

At least in Vivaldi I had to enter chrome://extensions/shortcuts to assign the shortcut because there was none by default, this was caused most probably by Tab Session Manager which also used the same shortcut to (de)activate the extension.
Couldn't this shortcut configuration be implemented inside Bitwarden's extension settings?
