BUG: Date hotkey D always opens calendar for card, not checklist item & can't save dates with Enter

[Sam]

For the past week the Enter key for saving new dates for cards/checklist items stopped working normally.

Previously, I could open the date picker (calendar) for a card or a checklist item - either with the D key or by clicking - select a date with a mouse cursor, and hit Enter to save a new Start date/Due date.

Now the Enter key doesn't save anything, seemingly because the focusing element switches to something else. So I have to constantly Tab before Enter would work again. This is annoying and slows down the process of working with multiple cards.

Other than that, for the past few days whenever I hover over a checklist item and press D to open its date picker (calendar), it opens calendar for the whole card. Which is even more frustrating and time-consuming when working with checklist items.

Does anybody else experience those issues in Trello Web, esp. on Chrome/Mozilla?

Reported the 1st as a bug: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/TRELLO-668
If you have it, you should click on "Affected customers"/"Watchers" after logging in.

 
A workaround for the 2nd would be much appreciated, since the team seems to be stuck investigating.

Hi Sam!

I can see that our support team already replied to your ticket. I'll update here as well so that other people will have the same information in case they have the same issue.

The product team decided to remove the feature as these keyboard shortcuts added a lot of complexity, but had extremely low usage, no in-app user education, and low accessibility. In addition, all of them mirrored existing keyboard shortcuts that applied to the card back as well as creating confusion for some users.

We've created a suggestion to bring back these shortcuts, which you can access here: TRELLO-689

We also recommend you to visit that suggestion, log in with your Atlassian account, and click Start watching this issue on the right panel. This will help our product and engineering team understand more about which functionalities our users are interested in. Also, when the ticket is updated by our product team, you'll be notified via email.
