Jupyter Notebook shortcuts for commenting do not work in Firefox

Time:12-22

I am using Jupyter Notebook in Firefox. If I highlight a code section and press Ctrl # or Ctrl }, nothing happens. If I highlight a code section and press Ctrl /, Firefox switches to a different tab. I tried those shortcuts in editing mode (= the code section was framed by a green box).

Things I have tried: Jupyter Notebook -> Help -> Edit Keyboard Shortcuts did not solve the problem since commenting/uncommenting is not listed there. Beyond this, neither this nor this question helped.

It could be either because of Jupyter Notebook settings or because of Firefox settings. Since I am not an expert in any of them, it would be great if you could provide a detailed answer in case you have an idea on how to solve the issue. I personally would prefer to put the commenting/uncommenting on Ctrl #, but Ctrl / is also okay for me.

It would be helpful for you if you just download the jupyter notebook application on your computer, or use a different browser to code since firefox is considered obsolete because of its speed. If you don't have a reasonable excuse for using firefox, I suggest using chrome.

There are a couple of things you can try.

  1. You change firefox keyboard shortcut settings (Probably the most accessible)
  2. You could download Jupyter Notebook
  3. You could try with a different browser
