Copy text from screen of published module?

Hi Ben,

Not sure where you want to copy to, but here's a couple thoughts:

If you're using the Windows OS and have a Windows keyboard, you can use the Windows+S key combo to copy a selection off the screen. That will display a window asking where you'd  like to copy it to. From there, you can use CTRL+V, or right-click and paste.

This pastes the info in as a picture. If you have OneNote, and you paste it into OneNote, you can right-click the "picture" and choose copy text from picture from the shortcut menu.

Hi,

Thanks for replying. I'm actually trying to allow the users to copy text from the screen of the published module, so they can paste the text while chatting with customers.

I'm creating an expandable decision tree in the form of a flow chart. This will be used by agents during actual contacts.  I want to direct agents down the correct path when taking contacts on a certain big call driver. It's basically one slide with lots of layers.

Since some contacts are via chat, one feature I wanted to include was to have the option of copying what they should tell the customer at that point. Then they could paste into the chat interface they are using with their customer. This would make it easier for agents and allow for consistent messaging at key points int he troubleshooting process.

I think this may be possible using javascript triggers but I'm really confused about it, I can't get any javascript to work...even the javascript examples articulate has on their website.

Ben, why don't you try reposting the question and put JavaScript in the subject? Then, one of the JavaScript gurus (not me for sure!) may take note and respond. Good luck!

Good suggestion. thanks

Hi Ben,

Did you get an answer about this? I'm also trying to allow the learner to be able to copy and paste text from a course.

Thanks!

Hi Alicia! 

This thread is a bit dated and I do not see an update or new question tied to Ben, but you are welcome to reach out to him directly via the 'Contact Me' option on his profile.

Hi, I still don't have a  good solution. There are options, but they seem overly complicated and clunky.

I wish user could just select text and copy without having to do multiple clicks and without so much setup on the development side.

Thanks for popping back in to share Ben and feel free to share your thoughts with our development team here.

Hi Ben,

Did you ever come across a good work around? Looking to do the same myself now.

Thanks,
Conan
