Nextcloud version: 20.0.8 (this issue has been around for a while).
I’m not sure where to ask, I couldn’t find other topics, sorry if this has been already dealt with.
I’d really like to be able to disable Ctrl + F hijacking. The global search thing can be very practical, but, I also use my browsers search functionality and the hijacking basically makes using the browser’s built-in search function very hacky (I have to press Ctrl + F + F, try to re-click the search box to move it out of the way and then go back to the browser’s search box…).
I often need to search on the page itself, but the Ctrl + F hijacking is making this very very (very) impractical.
I guess this is “support” if there’s a way to disable it, but perhaps this is feature request which I believe would be really beneficial. I would prefer to do Ctrl + F + F to activate Nextcloud’s search rather than the opposite.
I don’t know whether this will also disable some actually useful Nextcloud shortcuts, and I don’t think Firefox provides any finer controls than a full block, but for now I’m happy to block everything just to get rid of the Ctrl+F hijack.
For info, one must be on the concerned web page, then click “Tools” → “Page Info” (or CTRL+I, but that might be hijacked too), then goto “Permissions” and uncheck “Override Keyboard Shortcuts”.
