Shortkey `K` doesn't work properly

[Dancer18]

In latest Vivaldi stable the Shortkey K to mark as read doesn't work properly. Mostly not, sometimes it works on a few mails.
Sometimes I have to click directly on the mail again, that is already highlighted, to get it marked.

Yes. It does not typically work (although curiously sometimes it still does) when the text is selected.

I've reported this before as VB-84272 (Shortcuts not working reliably).

Hm. Works perfectly here. K marks mail read, and shift+K marks mails unread. Every time.

To begin with, of course, you have to have single-key shortcuts enabled.

But I wonder if there is an OS difference?

@ayespy Here it is on Linux Mint.
But, strangely, single-key shortcuts weren't enabled.
Although I didn't change that. It seems that due to latest update it became unchecked.

Now it is working again.

@jumpsq Have you checked single-key shortcuts again?

[jumpsq]

@dancer18 Sure, single key has always been active for me, I use them extensively :).

[Dancer18]

@jumpsq So for me it works fine again after rechecking it, but for you not...

Good you made a bug report.

I do encounter the issue rather frequently, certainly not always, but when it happens it can be rather annoying. And I believe it happens more, but not only after I've Ctrl-clicked a link to open it in a background tab.

And then there is also at least one undocumented action for which a shortcut cannot be set, Ctrl+Z, which can be overridden by the global settings to reopen a closed tab. However, in the context of mail (and calendar) it should just mark a message as unread again if it was marked as read, move it back to where it was before, ...
