Bug ID: 169909
Summary: Copy the full path of the document to the clipboard
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.2.7.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Use case: I want to make a note for myself to remember which folder and which
file name I used for an important document, so that I can find it quickly even
several years later, when the File -> Recent Documents already contains a lot
of newer files.
If I want to put to the full path of the current file into a notes.txt file
then I need to put it together in a quite cumbersome way:
- go to File -> Properties -> General tab in Writer
- click the link of the Location (I cannot copy it with the mouse, so it opens
a File Explorer window)
- click the directory bar
- press Ctrl+C
- close the File Explorer
- paste the directory in my notes.txt (Ctrl+V)
- triple click at the top of the General tab to copy the filename to the
clipboard
- paste it into notes.txt
Instead of these many clicks, I would like to have a [Copy Full Path to
Clipboard] button just after the Location value. Clicking it should put the
full path to the clipboard, which I could paste into my notes.txt easily.
Note: there is a similar button at the Help -> About -> Version Information
label but it copies version info, not the file name.
