Copy current URL with a keyboard shortcut

[Cizeon]

One of the feature I love with the Arc browser is the ability to quickly copy current URL with a simple shortcut: CTRL+SHIFT+C or CMD+SHIFT+C.

I'd love to have the same shortcut in Zen Browser.

Thank you for the great work!

I'm ok with 2 shortcuts that are used almost universally. Less things to remember.
Alt+D Focus the adddres bar
Ctrl+C Copy

[Cizeon]

Thank you for your response.

Having it as an option would be great. You can still use your workflow with two shortcuts, while I can also do mine with only one ;-).

Ctrl+ L also works for focusing the address bar

[rubaboo]

I know, multiple options exist. No point wanting to make one browser exactly like the other one.

At the moment I'm using the "Shortkeys" addon which allows you to do this easily, I've also found it helpfully blocks the default ctrl+shift+c shortcut for the inspect element and only leaves it with the ctrl+shift+i which I think is better anyway.

I'd love to see this too. I've lost count of how many times I've pressed Cmd+Shift+C in Zen and it's opened up dev tools!

[bpavuk]

same, with the recent update, my only "Arc user pain point" was Ctrl/cmd+shift+C

[ignoxx]

same here!

I'd also love to see this. Coming from Arc and I keep hitting Cmd + Shift + C and opening dev tools instead haha.

Looks like this feature might have been added in a recent update? Ctrl+shift+c is now copying the URL for me!

[Cizeon]

Thank you for implementing it!

But I do want to open dev tools.... how do I get the shortcut back?

[uncenter]

Ctrl+shift+l is the shortcut for that now.

[YussufSassi]

ctrl+shift+I is not the same shortcut as ctrl+shift+C. I can't find any way to restore that functionality.

That shortcut specifically activated inspect element. Is there a way to change this back? I do wish the the devs would stop messing with the keyboard shortcuts; aside from the constantly changing keybindings Zen has been great.

Try restarting your browser. I also noticed the shortcut toggling inspect element for a build or so, updated/restarted again and it was back to copying the URL as expected.

Hmm i believe this was fixed in b.5 but yeah restart your browser that should fix it.
