Disable Escape key for exiting fullscreen?
-
I like to use Vivaldi in fullscreen mode, but I have a problem: I use a number of sites that make use of the Escape key; for instance, to cancel editing a cell in Google Sheets. I also tend to hit Escape after I'm done with a Find in Page dialog. The escape key does get to the webpage app (or closes the Find box), but it also exits fullscreen. Unfortunately, the Toggle Full Screen menu item is not associated with the Escape key, so I can't fix this issue by remapping that menu item in Keyboard Preferences. Is there some other way to use the Escape key without exiting fullscreen mode?

This.
Having the escape key take you out of full-screen is a huge annoyance when using apps like Google Docs which make use of the escape key. If the app traps the escape key, the browser shouldn't.

I was actually coming here just now to post this exact question. Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this. Surprised it's been a thing this long! This thread was opened in July '15 Guessing it's not to trivial to fix.

Soā¦Ā bump?
Can't fault Vivaldi because IĀ think it took a while for Safari and Chrome to fix the same issue (and it's basically Apple's fault), but it's infuriating when it inevitably happens and you have to set up your windows again. (Especially now that I'm using Split View, so organizing my full-screen windows requires extra precision.) It can't take more than a few lines of codeā¦Ā IĀ couldn't find the exact answer but it looks like overriding the window's cancelOperation: could be the solution?
