| 2025-02-21 |  | | en | great extension! |
| 2024-09-28 |  | | en | Is there a way to change what the shortcut key combination is? I like the extension, however, I mainly want an extension to save time and be easy to use. Here's some feedback / ideas: 1. Switch the add and remove key combos - only use the "shift" key for the remove option. I like this better because it would make adding a little easier, and removing require just a little more effort. Great because I think making a mistake when removing is less favorable (and thus could need just a bit more concentration, like with 2 hands) then making a mistake when adding (mistakes are less of a big deal) 2. (option / shift / L) and (Alt / shift / L) are really cumbersome to use with one hand. Change it to (control / shift / L) - instead of (option / alt)- which I just think is a more natural hand position.. 3. Let you change the key combinations yourself? I don't know if the extension could allow this, but it would be nice to make them whatever you want. |
