Hello Jon,

Maybe you'd like to give this add-on a try :

Any good ?

Hi McCoy,

Thank you for the suggestion.

I've just tried that extension on multiple sites but it doesn't seem to be working. It's installed, I've restarted Firefox and my laptop, but Control+Shift+F (as the extension instructs) is not doing anything.

Hi McCoy, still no luck.

Looking on Bugzilla, someone posted a video of the issue 2 years ago

https://gyazo.com/d94fa85b454544fae6853b616c284f97

That's exactly the trouble I'm having.

Seems like there is no easy solution...
