Permalink should be auto-selected when user clicks in field #43

Qualtrics ID 5, 2nd point:

it would be nice if when you click on the URL that appears in the Permalink field, the whole link was automatically highlighted (as happens in the address bar of most web browsers like Google Chrome), so you could copy it more easily. That's the most important and frequent (maybe the only) thing that anyone will do with the Permalink--copy and paste it into email messages, Ask A Librarian chat sessions, etc.

Does this make sense, @bnhowell ?

bnhowell commented 8 years ago

Makes sense.

I think the highlighting + a 'copy' control to the right would capture all ways this could be used.

Alright, I'll try to work on this feature this week and having something.

varnum commented 7 years ago

This is that last "beta" milestone feature yet incomplete. Is it on track for Monday?

jonearley commented 7 years ago

Unfortunately this will not be ready on Monday. With my other higher priority items I haven't been able to work on this enhancement feature.

Hi Jon,

This looks ok. I wish there was more feedback on the interface saying the action (copied to clipboard) had taken place once the copy to clipboard button clicked.

Hey Ben, that's possible. These libraries just enable that copy and paste functionality and don't dictate the interface.

bnhowell commented 7 years ago

Sounds good.
