Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
F9-F12 are useful when you're debugging code in Visual Studio.
I sometimes use F6 to jump to my browser's address bar.
Can't imagine any uses for F7 or F8 though. And all the times I've opened a help screen with F1 have been on accident.
My main gripe with function keys on laptops is they're tiny and easy to mix up, especially since they have large brightness, volume, etc. icons on them while the function key number is a tiny label that's barely visible.
FYI, you can also use CTRL+L instead of F6 in Most Browsers, easier to reach than F6
Yes, but removing the focus from the address bar is only doable through F6 in Firefox. Whyyyy can't I do it through ESC??
No idea, but I have never felt the need to do that. Maybe CTRL TAB, and CTRL SHIFT TAB?
Nope, it returns to the original tab with the focus still in the URL bar. ๐
ESC works for me
Which platform? The focus is kept on MacOS for me.
Linux
Not working for me on my Manjaro install either.
Wayland?
If you're using Visual Studio F7 builds the solution.
A lot of games and emulators use them for quick save and quick load functions.
