      I thought it would be useful to collect a number of features or shortcuts that are not documented in Help. I will add any others to this first post as I find them or others users report them.

      1. Alt+Left-click on close button = Close Other Tabs.
      2. Shift+Left-click on a link = Open in new tab
      3. Ctrl+Shift+Click to open a link in a new window.
      4. Ctrl+Left-click in URL in address bar = Go to the directory before point clicked
      5. Ctrl+Left-click on the Back/Forward Navigation Buttons to open the URL in a New Tab
      6. Click on the Active Tab to minimize it (Settings, Tabs, Tab Features) to quickly view the previous tab
      7. Set the Active Tab Minimum Width (Settings, Tabs, Tab Display)
      8. Quick Select: Click at the start of text; Shift+Click at end of the desired text block to select it.
      9. Alt+Click on the Show/Hide Panel Icon in the Status Bar to set the Panels to Floating/Docked
      10. Middle-click reload button will duplicate / clone tab
      11. Middle-click tab to close it
      12. Alt+Click or Middle-click on Panel Icon to open in a New Tab (except for downloads)
      13. After selecting “Capture Selection” from the Status Bar camera icon, click anywhere on the page (do not drag), then click on the camera icon to save a screenshot of the active window.
      14. Double-click on border of panel to hide the panel and the panel toolbar (= Shortcut F4)
      15. Alt+Scrollwheel to cycle tabs
      16. PageDown and PageUp change Webpage zoom by 50% and Home/End set it to 20% and 500% respectively when the slider has focus.
      17. Ctrl+Click or Middle-click on open Bookmarks Bar folder to open bookmarks in a background tab without closing the menu. Use Shift+Click to open them in a foreground tab.
      18. Shortcuts to Select Next/Previous Tab will select all tabs in a stack with one keystroke.
      19. Ctrl+Double-click on a tab selects all other tabs from the same domain.
      20. Middle-click on Trash Can to reopen the last closed tab.
      21. Long-click on Status Bar clock to change settings.
      22. Select multiple tabs in the Window Panel to copy all of the URLs as a list.

      Please let me know if any of the above shortcuts or features are documented in help.

          @pafflick said in Undocumented Shortcuts and Features:

          1. [CTRL] + click on URL in the address bar to go one directory "up".

          to be precise, the url gets cut on the subdirectory where you ctrl-click

              @gwen-dragon I want to wait until 2.0 final is imminent, then we can ping gaelle or submit a bug report, whatever works best.

                @pesala said in Undocumented Shortcuts and Features:

                1. Ctrl-click on a link = Open in new background tab
                2. Middle-click on a link = Open in new background tab

                These two are documented here:

                There are also several ways to open a new tab in the background:

                • (...)
                • Press and Hold the Ctrl / ⌘ key while clicking a link.
                • Click a link with the middle mouse button.

                    @dannyromano said in Floating panel switch on panel's toolbar:

                    OP, I just found the feature you're looking for. It's already implemented. If you hold ALT while clicking the "Hide Panel" button in the status bar (bottom), it toggles floating panels on and off.

                      I'm not sure if this was officially documented anywhere, but you can drag to resize the search field:

                              I just noticed this one:

                                Alt+Scrollwheel to cycle tabs is not documented in Tab Cycling as far as I can tell.

                                      Hold down the left mouse button and right-click on the scrollbar thumb.

                                      This will lock the mouse cursor to the thumb until you click again.
