Latest update wrecked my workflow with alt+shift+arrow overwrite
Hello!
I am a heavy user of Firefox: daily & around 8 hours a day.
I usually use alt+shift+left/right-arrow to select a few words to the right / to the left. With the latest update (mandatory because this is a work-administered) laptop, the new behavior is that tabs are changed.
I want any solution to revert this to standard (past) behavior (preferably not an extension). Looked around in about:config but could not find anything to toggle on/off.
This is highly annoying as I've had this workflow for literally years. Even opening this ticket I encountered the issue more than 3 times as I was phrasing the message and had to delete & rewrite some stuff while also have other tabs open in the same Firefox window.
Would highly appreciate your timely response!
Thanks a lot! -- John

ionut_mntn, do you use the Tree Style Tabs add-on? If so then this is a known issue and there is more discussion and further links here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1449863
