feature-request: meatballs menu behavior & feature #312

Closed frans-snyders closed 1 year ago

frans-snyders commented 3 years ago

A) Menu behavior change request Current behavior:

The pop-up is to the left - obscuring the files section
After performing and action on the meatballs menu for the files section on the right, the menu is still visible, until clicking somewhere else.

Requested behavior:

pop-up to the right of the meatballs menu, over the code, not the files
after a selection is made from the menu, the pop-up should disappear

B) Menu item addition request

Additional menu item:

add "copy name" to the meatballs menu for files
alternative: add the name as a separate additional field to the "rename" display, for easy double click to select/copy.

Reason:

copy is preferred to typing names of table references
I'm finding I selecting "rename" quite often, and copying the name from there. This gets tedious if path names are longer than the display box
