Hey!
I just wander if anyone from the opera team is reviewing these comments at the forum?

RE: ESC key activates the "Exit full screen" featureOpera for Mac
@Dambbu Hi!
Many thanks for your ideas. I find them very useful!
Still wonder if anyone from Opera team will have a look at this rather annoying complaint (which I believe is common across Mac users).

ESC key activates the "Exit full screen" featureOpera for Mac
Hi all!
First of all, let me say that I'm a fan of the Opera browser. Thank you for creating it!
I've recently switched to Mac (yes, it's an annoying process). There's only one issue that's really problematic—the ESC key. Whenever you press it, it activates the "Exit full screen" feature, which is incredibly frustrating. Consider how often you use ESC during normal computer use:
- to abandon input in dialog screens
- to abandon input in Google Docs and Google Sheets
- to cancel file uploads
- etc.
This behavior is truly unexpected. Check any software—ESC isn't meant for this purpose.
I've searched the Opera forum and found this issue raised and upvoted five times, but I couldn't find any suggestions on how to address it. Could you please advise on how to deal with this?
P.S.
This is a real deal-breaker. I had to download Chrome (which I haven't used in 7 years) to work with some pages (Google Sheets and Docs) where I need to use the ESC key. But I don't want Chrome! Please help me stay with Opera!Many-many thanks!
