About Shortcut keys for selection search
Keyboard shortcut keys:
1. Alt+1 -> Open google result of selected text in foreground tab.
2. Alt+Shift+1 -> Open google result of selected text in background tab.
*Shortcut keys are editable at chrome://extensions/shortcuts
**For Chromebook users** (maybe also Mac OS users)
The Alt+1 key will click the first icon in the Shelf, and it will not work on Chrome browser.
After the installation, please change the shortcut key from "Alt+1" to another one at chrome://extensions/shortcuts then avoid the built-in shortcut keys on your OS.
In the setting page, the right box should be "In Chrome".
(Input chrome://extensions/shortcuts in the address bar and press Enter to open a setting page.)
