Fenix: [UX] Select link's text && Select text

[black7375]

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

Currently Firefox is difficult to select text.
I would like to refer to the case of Samsung Internet.

1. Link Long Press

   • Long press to select the text of the link.
   • UX: Separate tab creation and link-related features for easy recognition.
   • UX: You can copy links directly, but select is better because you can select another areas, search/translate them with text content, and so on.
     

2. Select Link's Text

3. You can copy the text from the link or perform other actions.
   

3 Adjust the area.

• You can make the area wider or narrow.
• UX: Zoom in on the area you are changing to make sure you select even small letters precisely.
• UX: The sensitivity of the cursor is low, so it is easy to select each letter. #15391
• UX: There is a natural animation by increasing the size of the cursor used during selection.
  

1. Selection END
   

Summary

• Link long press
  
  
  
  • Feature: Link Text Selection
  
  
  • Menu: Seperate tab creation and link-related features
  
  
• During selection
  
  
  
  • Feature: Zooming area
  
  
  • Adjustments: Cursor's sensivity (I don't know if it's the right word)
  
  
  • Animate: Cursor's size up
  
  

How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?

Copy & Paste is a universal feature that very many users use and I think it is important.

Link Long Pressed Menu

• Don't have Select Text, dividing line.
  

• 3-Dot menu has a dividing line.
  

Text Selection

• The text of a hard-to-recognise link: Ex. Firefox Addon
  

• Screenshot for selecting the small print in 5609
  
  
  
  • Don't have zooming area
  
  
  • Press and hold to select the numbers(4,485.609), then move the left cursor to the right(approximately 4,4 passed), the area changes very much.
    
    
    
    
  
  

Who will benefit from it?

I'll only describe the features.

Link Text Selection

• Anyone who wants to easily select the text of the link

Zoomig Selction Area && Cursor sensitivity down

• Those who want to select precisely
• Those who need to select small letters
• a person with low vision

@kbrosnan

It contains a variety of suggestions besides text selection.
Did the following suggestions duplicated?

• Menu seperate
• Feature: Zooming area
• Animate: Cursor's size up

@kbrosnan reopen this, this isn't a duplicate (or at least only a tiny part if it is)

@kbrosnan better open one ticket per feature, then.
