Layout Switcher Extension for Firefox
This extension helps you quickly switch keyboard layout for selected text in input fields using hotkeys. It supports automatic punctuation correction when switching from English to Russian layout.
MAIN FEATURES
Keyboard Layout Switching
Select any text in input fields, text areas, or contenteditable elements and press the hotkey combination to instantly switch the keyboard layout. The extension automatically detects the current layout and switches it to the opposite one.
Supported Layouts
The extension supports multiple keyboard layouts including Russian, English, Ukrainian, and Belarusian. It can switch between Cyrillic and Latin scripts seamlessly.
Automatic Punctuation Correction
When switching from English to Russian layout, the extension automatically corrects punctuation marks. For example, question mark becomes comma and slash becomes period when appropriate.
Customizable Hotkeys
You can choose from several predefined hotkey combinations or create your own custom hotkeys. The default combination is Alt+Shift+L, but you can change it to any combination you prefer.
Easy Configuration
Click on the extension icon to open the settings popup where you can select hotkey combinations and add your own custom shortcuts. All settings are saved automatically in local storage.
HOW TO USE
Basic Usage
1. Type some text in an input field using the wrong keyboard layout
2. Select the text you want to fix
3. Press the hotkey combination (default: Alt+Shift+L)
4. The text will automatically switch to the correct layout
If nothing is selected, the extension will automatically find and correct the last entered sequence of characters before the cursor.
Punctuation Correction
When you type text thinking you are on Russian layout but actually on English, and you press the key for comma or period, you might get question mark or slash instead. The extension automatically corrects these when switching layouts:
- Question mark (?) becomes comma (,)
- Slash (/) becomes period (.)
This correction only works when switching from English to Russian layout, as the extension detects the context and applies appropriate fixes.
Settings Menu
Click on the extension icon in the toolbar to open the settings popup. Here you can:
- Select a hotkey combination from predefined options
- Add your own custom hotkey combinations by pressing the keys
- Remove custom hotkeys you no longer need
- See instructions on how to use the extension
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Compatibility
This extension works with all types of input fields including regular input elements, textarea elements, and contenteditable divs. It uses Manifest V3 and requires Firefox 142.0 or higher.
Privacy
The extension does not collect any data. It only uses local storage to save your personal settings such as selected hotkey combinations. No information is sent to external servers or third parties.
Performance
The extension is lightweight and does not impact browser performance. It only activates when you press the hotkey combination, ensuring minimal resource usage.
