probably depends on adding a 'Copy to Clipboard' infrastructure, as requested in bug 1154556. after discussing with Liz: It seems that PatternFly is going towards avoiding having right-click menu items; assuming we will adopt this paradigm (as part of adopting PatternFly), we may actually be able to utilize the browser's native right-click menu for copying text from grid-cells. We will need to take care of the selection disappearance as documented in bug 1194754 though. after pf3 conversion things are easy to copy |
Created attachment 993986 [details] screen-cast: actions right-click menu overrides native browser right-click menu Users would like to be able to copy a grid cell content to clipboard. This is currently impossible due to several issue. One of the issues is that when right-clicking anywhere on the grid, the RHEV actions context (right-click) menu is 'overriding' the native browser right-click menu (which includes the 'Copy' option). See attached screen-cast for problem demonstration. Need to somehow allow copying selection content within a cell - maybe by adding a 'Copy' option of our own in the RHEV context-menu.
