Cannot select and copy text in segment pane #719

Copy link

In order to make it easier for me to help you, I ask that you please try these things first:

Describe the bug
In the main window there is a side panel on the right that shows the "Segments to export:". I used to be able to select the timecode of each segment and copy it. e.g. 00:20:32.412 - 01:21:23.123. Basically I use the timecode with another script to split and merge my subtitle files.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open any video
  2. Create a segment
  3. Segment timecode cannot be selected and copied. Trying to select on results in dragging the segment.

Expected behavior
Timecode should be highlighted like a regular text and can be copied to clipboard

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 10

Can File -> Export as CSV serve this purpose? You get a neat list of time values

I mean File -> Export -> Timestamps (CSV) - hopefully that will satisfy your need. If not, we could have an option to click a button to show or copy the text to clipboard.

Sorry for the lack of response. My current workflow does not require the copying of timestamps anymore. (I used it to resync subtitles with another script)

Is there a need for something complicated like a copy button? Wouldn't it be easier to make the text selectable while still remaining read only?

I think the problem is that the segments are drag-droppable (to reorder), so selecting would not work.

Ah so that was what changed that made it unselectable.

In any case, I found there is a place at the bottom to manually input the cut-points which is selectable. Solves my workflow but not sure about #1088
