Make text in React component selectable #51

Closed ar-jan closed 9 months ago

ar-jan commented 1 year ago

This makes text selectable, but not yet copyable.

User text selection does not affect what is copied. By default it seems to copy the entire annotation (selected text, annotation metadata, and annotation comment text). For example:

“The selected text” ([Corver et al., 2015, p. 57](zotero://select/library/items/GVSG8HQ5)) ([pdf](zotero://open-pdf/library/items/T8AWTHP8?page=57&annotation=XJA6NMXW)) \~~~~LIDIA~~~~

We would probably have to override the Ctrl+C behavior?

A workaround seems like it may be sufficient: double click the selected text in Zotero's left sidebar for editing, then select and copy from that.

The workaround (or using the lidia-browser website) is sufficient.
