Shortcut to change search engine
Hello, I'm kind of plain lazy person and i would like to know if there is a way to change the search engine when you're searching something in the top right corner. My question is kind of particular because the solution that already exist ( typing and then using Tab or Alt +arrow , etc.) don't fit to what I want . I would like to change the search engine not by navigating with keyboard, but by using shortcut that directly concerns the engine I want to use. I'm in trouble trying to explain what i want exactly so I'll try to give an example : Let's say XFoo is my default engine. Now I want to search with Ybar search engine. The steps to accomplish my search would be:
1) Typing what I look for 2) -Insert a Keyboard combo like Ctrl+Y - + Enter
Is there a way to configure firefox to do this ?
Thanking you

Hi, you don't need to use a keyboard shortcut, just click the left-hand end of the search bar and select a different search engine to your default.
You can change the available options in 3-bar menu Options > Search.

Thank for replying, this does not answer my question ( this is my fault), the main goal of my question is to achieve this by using keyboard shortcut, not using my mouse.

That's probably the closest solution indeed, thank you !
Note: This does NOT work if a Search Engine is installed as an Add-On on your mozilla

In the search bar you can change the search engine via Ctrl + Up/Down
You can right-click a search engine icon in the search engine drop down list to set this engine as the default search engine, so you do not need to go to "Options/Preferences -> Search" (about:preferences#search).

Uh, to make that extra clear:
In the Search Bar, you can change the search engine via Ctrl + Up/Down Arrows.
