Add Media shortcut in TinyMCE is not working properly

[freshwebdev]

I want to report a bug found in TinyMCE shortcut.

when you want to add image / media with shortcut shift + alt + M, appears a pop up, then I add the URL of an image from the web. After that I press the insert button to post. However, the image does not appear on tinyMCE editor.

Another story if I press the add button media. Bottom line, if through the shortcut, it did not work, but if the add button click through media is work.

Confirmed. This is a weird bug. Caused by having <input type="button" accesskey="m"...> in Quicktags for the "image" button. As there are two instances of Quicktags, and the shortcut for activating the accesskeys is the same (Alt+Shift+M), the second "image" button is focused which sets window.wpActiveEditor to replycontent (despite that this button is usually not visible).

Are these accesskey attributes useful? I don't seem to be able to do anything after pressing the keys, at least in Chrome. If they are, we would need to fix them somehow for cases where more than one instance of Quicktags exists, if at all possible.

I'll look for a workaround for now. Can decide about the accesskeys in 4.1.

In 28173.patch: when inserting content, prefer the editor id passed while opening the modal. wpActiveEditor can change in the background.

Related #29358.

Is this related to the editor width shortcuts no longer working in distraction-free writing?

No, not related to the DFW width shortcuts. They work when TinyMCE is not focused.

In 29603:

Media modal: when inserting content, prefer the editor id passed while opening the modal. wpActiveEditor can change in the background. (Includes some precommit prefixed selectors.) Fixes #28173
