Shift+P doesn't seem to be a functioning hotkey anymore.

Why no facility to LOCK a tab???????????? Gonna have to stop using Opera as I spend half my time recovering tabs that have contents vanished due to being overwritten after a search and select

How to turn off opera keyboard shortcuts?
Zeynel Admin says in reply to Srki : 5 years ago 7/20/2020 9:45 PM
Seems like they can be disabled individually in Settings (rather than all in once)
? nat OP says: 5 years ago 4/20/2020 7:28 PM
What about paste with the same style? I don't think there's actually a way in Opera to change the hotkeys for paste, and I was hoping to be able to make a hotkey to paste with matching style.
