1 month ago You're referring to the "classic" version of the JSON Editor: https://github.com/josdejong/jsoneditor.
The successor of this editor, svelte-jsoneditor has a different way of working (similar to cells in Excel). Many things are easier (and finally possible), like copy/paste a value in your JSON document. But some things have become a bit harder, like you first have to double click to start editing a value.
Right now, to select a part of a value, you can double click the value to edit it, and then select the part you want to copy.
It would be nice indeed to be able to partially select a value directly. It may be possible, I'm not sure. Anyone interested in trying to make that work?
Moving this idea to the Ideas section now...
Hello,
Currenlty in 'tree' mode when clicking a string value, all the cell is highlight ( the cursor is 'pointer') and the user can't mark the text ( only if he press edit then he can edit the cell).
I would like an ability highlight only part of the text ( without the need to edit the cell before ).
for example: https://jsonformatter.org/json-editor/55f614 here I can hightlight/mark when my cursor only part of the url and copy it.
