Close on ESC key
Hey folks,
I see that with the last update you added improved keyboard support to the theme. Unfortunately, it's still not possible to close e. g. off canvas navigation and cart with ESC key instead of clicking the X. Do you have a custom snipped you can provide me with? Or could this functionality please be added in the near future? It would improve the theme's overall UIX a lot!

Hi,
Thanks for reporting. We have this on our to-do list, and it should be added to one of the upcoming updates, but I cannot tell when it will be.
Moreover, there will be some improvement in our accessibility, so stay tuned. 😉
If you have any ideas about what we could add, please, let us know on the following topic:

Thanks
Hey Phil,
any news on that already? I'm desperately waiting for this option since it would improve the theme's UIX so much!
Hello,
The ESC button support was added some time ago (version 26.3), but as I see its stopped working for dropdown (hamburger) menu, its correctly working for Side Slide.
Please tell me, which menu do you use?
thanks
Yep, I'm using the hamburger menu and it doesn't work but it does for the side cart e. g.
It will be fixed in the today's update of the theme 😁
Greetings
Woohoo! Good news 😎
Mh, unfortunately it's still not working.
I'm using the hamburger icon from the header builder, both tested in Safari and Firefox.
The Accessibility for menu works only for pre-built headers now (Theme Options headers), the header builder is not prepared for accessibility.
It's on our Todo list now - it should be updated soon, but only for Header Builder v2, the Header Builder v1 is deprecated and will not be updated anymore.
I'll check if this can be easily fixed by JS, I'll give you a response tomorrow.
thanks
Well, it looks that we have to create some tweaks in the Header Builder and Accessibility script file, it will take some time, but I think it will be ready soon.
If you want I can post here when it will be updated.
thanks
Hey there, do you already have a rough ETA for this feature being implemented?
It will be released in the next update with should be available this week
Best regards
Great to hear - thanks! :)
Sorry to bother you again, but has this feature already been released with the last update? I couldn't find any notes in version 26.4.0.8 changelog.
Unfortunately not.
The package with keyboard access for new header builder is taken by team responsible of bonding theme versions.
I'll send a quick reminder in this topic when it will get released.
thanks
Hey again, any news on this? I'm really waiting for this feature!
We done it recently it's waiting for including in the production stage of code.
It will be included in the next updates, I'm not able to tell you in which one, but surely soon.
Thanks
Hey there, can you already say when this feature will be added? I'm desperately waiting for it.
Thanks & have a great Christmas!
Hi,
We had to make some final touches to it, but we will release an update, including that, next week.
Sorry for the delay.
Best regards
That‘s great news. Merry Christmas!
Hey again,
as far as I can see, this feature wasn't included in the latest update, or did I miss anything?
Yes, it is - it's labeled as "Accessibility - Header Builder support"
Thanks
It's working for the standard overlay menu; but neither for the standard side cart nor the header builder items (side cart, side menu) it seems to work.
Can you list me the items and where exactly it does not work? Also, on which browser do you test it?
I tested the new Header Builder with accessibility and it works correctly for me.
thanks
I‘ve e. g. imported the new Cosmetics store demo with the custom header. Both side menu and side cart won‘t close on ESC key on the newest Safari on Mac OS for me.
Hi,
I passed it to the dev team, and we will look at it.
Best regards
Hey, have you already heard back from your devs?
Yes, they informed me that it would be included in the next update.
Best regards
