Copy link

alexandergreuter commented Nov 25, 2019

When copying files/paths/website links usually the part I want to see in my preview is positioned on the end of the string, adding an option to inverse the text overflow would fix that.

Imagine a copying a few links from a github repo with a preview of 20 characters:

normal
https://github.com/T...
https://github.com/T...

inverted
...ob/master/README.rst
...s/gschemas.compiled

Or a few files:

normal
x-special/nautilus-c...

inverted
...x/Documents/file.txt

To be fair it doesn't work that well with code or free text:

normal
_removeEntry: functi...
Installation via git...

inverted
...dateCache(); },
...-shell/extensions/):

I would suggest adding an option to inverse it, a selection for middle/inverted/normal or even the posibility to make custom regex templates that remove things like "https://".

For me a toggle that let's me inverse the overflow would be insanely helpful. I appreciate any time spent on the matter, many thanks to the devs for this awesome extension!
