Copy Slicer setting to clipboard by rightclicking on setting #4339

My "Issue" My printers, filament and print settings are stored in one ini file (placed in the Vendor folder inside the Datadir). If I made a complex print /slice which contains some settings that I want to bring accross to my ini file, I now open the ini file in Notepad++, and search for that variable / setting, check if it allready is included (in the right place) and add (if it is not already there) or change the setting (if it is already there)

I very often can't find settings due to a typo in the search box (I am a bit dyslexnisx). If I then add the (wrongly spelled) setting / variable it doesn't work, obviously.

Describe the solution you'd like It would help me a lot, if there is a context menu in Superslicer that allows me to copy the setting (and possibly even the current value) to the clipboard so that I can paste it in my settings file.

Describe how it would work

  1. Hoover over the setting
  2. right mouseclick to open a context menu
  3. select copy from the list (4. maybe even a context menu item that reads: Open Config folder similar as now is in the Help menu)

Additional context I do not know if others would find it usefull. If so, please let me know.

a context menu with:

May be a bit hard for text entries, as there have already a context menu, but in this case, it's possible to right clic on the label.
