Chrome: Modify webapp keyboard shortcut

Question

Jira has a keyboard shortcut of Ctrl+Alt+S for form submit on Chrome Mac. It's awkward. Is there a way to change this locally? I am not the Jira admin.

Answer 1

Unfortunately there is no way to do this in Jira without third-party software for keyboard remapping, etc.

There was a suggestion/improvement submitted for custom keyboard shortcuts in Jira, but it was resolved as "No Fix" by the vendor.

Answer 2

The website is using javascript to watch for specific key combinations. You could create a user script using the TamperMonkey addon to intercept their interception and cancel it.

Somebody asked a similar question and the answer provided an example user script to accomplish this. Their example uses GreaseMonkey in firefox but Tampermonkey should serve the same purpose in Chrome.
