883841 - network monitor details can't be copied more than one painful line at a time

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 862020

(DevTools :: Netmonitor, defect)

Description

[Dan Jacobson]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:23.0) Gecko/20130614 Firefox/23.0 Iceweasel/23.0a2 (Nightly/Aurora)
Build ID: 20130614004016

Steps to reproduce:

CTRL+SHIFT+Q and then refreshed the page and selected "Headers".
Then hit CTRL+A thinking maybe I could copy all the headers with the mouse.


Actual results:

Found I was only allowed to copy them ONE LINE AT A TIME !!


Expected results:

Don't disable CTRL+A or CTRL+LEFT CLICK to copy more than one line of headers at a time!

Same goes for Cookies, Parameters, etc.

There is a Response item which allows CTRL+A, but is oddly missing a right click meun.

Meun->menu.

Comment 3

[Dan Jacobson]

One notes that the right click menu for each line indeed already does have a Select All CTRL+A... but this only refers to that particular line.

NO thought was given to people wanting to copy more that one mere line at a time!

Maybe bug 859058 and 859059 are related.

Yup, but bug 862020 and bug 862019 (or bug 859133) are more relevant in this case.

We have given thought to this, we just didn't have time to implement it yet. Thank you for filing this bug. It's a duplicate of bug 862020, which will be taken care of as soon as possible.
