Is there a way in Firefox when pressing command-d or ctrl-d for opening bookmark menu to have the detailed bookmark folder list in the middle opened by default ? Like this one could navigate with keyboard only to add bookmark in dedicated folder and specify tag with tab key

the behaviour I'm looking for , is :

1/ command/ctr +d : open the bookmark dialog, 2/ press one time tab to get inside the middle list of bookmark folders, 3/ use up/down arrow to choose the right folder , 4/ then press again tab key to go in tag area to choose right tags for the links, 5/ and then hit enter to validate the bookmark addition

From what I have tested , step 2/ is only possible with mouse clicking, and I would like to be able to switch into the folder menu with tab key

P.S. I tried to take a sscreenshot to picture what I'm meaning but the bookmark pane disappears as soon as leave the focus on FF

Hi,

After some research, I arrive at the same result as you. However, there is the following extension

https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/shortkeys/

which allows to configure the keyboard shortcuts and can be answer to your idea

thank's
