Cannot type the letter "p" in the dispatcher

[Shard]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open redux dev tools
2. Open inspector and the Redux tab
3. Open dispatcher panel
4. Type the letter p (lowercase, uppercase P works)

This occurred on Chromium for Mac, Version 71.0.3554.0 (Developer Build) (64-bit). Tested in incognito mode with only Redux Dev Tools extension enabled.

This worked fine for me. Are you sure this isn't interference from another installed extension? For instance, one of the extensions I have installed has a listener for the esc key being pressed. Bother's the hell out of me when it spews errors in the console, but I know it's garbage. Perhaps something like that is going on.

Checked in 72.0.3612.0 (Developer Build) (64-bit) for Mac and cannot reproduce as well. Steps:

1. Download latest Chromium build from https://download-chromium.appspot.com
2. Install extension from https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/redux-devtools/lmhkpmbekcpmknklioeibfkpmmfibljd
3. Open http://zalmoxisus.github.io/examples/counter/ and next following your steps.

Most likely @qodesmith is right, note that an extension can define a shortcut which will work outside the browser, so it will be suppressed even if you open incognito without other extensions. But on the other hand, if that's the case, you would have the issue with typing p also in browsers pages.

I did some more testing and when I open up redux dev tools in chrome inspector, I can track down the the eventHandler that is eating the keypress event to a function called forwardKeyboardEvent inside a VM file which i believe is being defined by Redux Dev Tools.

At the end of the VM source, I find the following code (when formatted):

    )({
        "exposeExperimentalAPIs": false,
        "name": "Redux DevTools",
        "startPage": "chrome-extension://lmhkpmbekcpmknklioeibfkpmmfibljd/devtools.html"
    }, 332462400, "default", [3142, 704, 588, 2123, 2269, 2267, 1106, 2372, 2235, 2491, 2155, 2411, 2237, 2493, 2157, 2413, 2096, 2144, 2118, 114, 2119, 2375, 2384, 112, 447, 27, 2371, 2127, 2381, 2130, 2386, 2128], ()=>{}
    , injectedScriptId);
}
)("5d63b0d7-d555-42d3-b1da-c12b50275a54")

If I use chrome to remove the event handler (the only KeyPress handler found on the dispatcher field) then the p starts working for me.

I can confirm that i don't have this issue with my p key anywhere else whether typing here or other tabs on chrome dev tools even. I can try installing another version of chrome and try installing redux dev tools there cleanly to see if i can replicate that way.

@Shard Have you tried temporarily disabling all other extensions and seeing if the behavior persists?

[zalmoxisus]

@Shard can you reproduce it also from extension's window (not from dev panel)? To open it in a window, use the context menu from right click on the web page or from extensions's icon.

Got the same thing with the 'h' key. Works when you find whatever extension is causing the issue. Don't forget to close all browser windows and all pwa apps after removing other extensions.
