The New Quick Access Key
According to this post, a quick access key (Q) has been added to the CE. Pressing Q doesn't seem to work. Does it have some other function other than what I thought it might be? If so, where do I use it and what's it for?

Re: The New Quick Access Key
It depends on your browser:
Firefox is Alt + Shift + Q
Google Chrome is Alt + Q
However, it's uncomfortable using this on these browsers, I won't recommend it ;_;
Opera and other browsers might be different as well, I can't test these.

Alt + Q? Oh yikes, Alt + click makes me download the link, so if I didn't let go of Alt, I'd end up having annoying download links in my folder.
I wish it were listed as such in the post, but that ain't a big deal.
Well, thanks anyways~

Re: The New Quick Access Key
what is this supposed to do? I use chrome and I have not seen any change doing alt + Q but maybe I am doing it wrong. It would help if I knew what it was for, and how to use it

After you've clicked an adopt you can use the q shortcut to get back to the CE without having to move your mouse to the return link.

Re: The New Quick Access Key
oh ok. That sounds like more trouble than just clicking with the mouse
Edit: I made a shortcut key for the alt Q so I can just click one key to do it. That makes it easier

Re: The New Quick Access Key
I feel like even if I did do that, I'd end up pressing the key too early and downloading a billion links by accident. I'd be mashing the key.
Still a pretty great idea, though.

Re: The New Quick Access Key
Don't give up on it. If you set up a single key shortcut for the Alt + Q, and practice it, you can get a rhythm going and get some good clicking in. Here is an extension for Google chrome to try:

There is no danger of using shortcut too much, it hasn't affected it. You may accidentally overclick the click bar and have to go back.
The only thing I wonder about is if I get a congratz and have already clicked the alt Q shortcut, but I have not had one yet to see what happens

Re: The New Quick Access Key
If you get a congratz and you accidentally click past it, in Chrome (and I believe FireFox as well) you can hit the back button and still redeem the code. So as long as you are paying attention you should be okay.
There is a way to change the shortcut to a single key using the extension? I couldn't find the spot to change it to a single key, instead of using the control+alt+Q in chrome. I tried changing it before and just assumed it wasn't possible.

Re: The New Quick Access Key
chrome is supposed to be Alt + Q, no control. Try resetting it that way and then refresh your page to enable it. Otherwise you might check your keyboard manufacturer. I read somewhere that almost any keyboard can be programmed that way.
Also I did win a couple Congratz and was able to go back to them. Otherwise I would have lost them, I went too fast.
Also, it may not work if you are using incognito. I have a desktop computer with a logitech keyboard with 6 programmable keys on the left side, so it is really handy. I am not really sure how to set up the other thing, but it is worth finding out if you don't have desktop.
