Notepad3: paste whole line with link

[kofifus]

small snag here ..

go anywhere in a non link line , press ctrl+c then ctrl+v
the entire line is pasted below
this is the correct behavior

now go anywhere on a web link and do the same
the link only is pasted at the position where you clicked ctrl+v
expecting the above behavior instead

Thanks!

@kofifus : Maybe you can sum up the desired behavior for "copy on/at/in Hyperlink (HL)" (take into account the issues mentioned above).
(copy w/ and w/o selection, caret in HL, caret outside HL in same line, copy on right click, ... 🤔)

@RaiKoHoff as far as I can see all those issues seem to be resolved

I guess the question is if we want cut/copy/paste when there is no selection to have a different behavior when you are on a link, at the moment they do (on a link they work on the text of the link instead of on the whole line), I think they shouldn't

Thanks!

@kofifus : Maybe you have overseen comment https://github.com/rizonesoft/Notepad3/issues/1296#issuecomment-498541959
No selection: If caret is not positioned _in_ the Hyperlink, the complete line is copied else the Hyperlink only is copied. In my opinion (and @alexantr 's change request) this is the desired behavior.

Ok I see, it's not a big deal it just surprised me ... if you feel easy copy of the link is very useful than maybe the current behavior is better...

Should I close this ?

@kofifus : If you don't insist to get an option to switch this behavior, please close this issue.

Hello @kofifus ,
As far as I'm concerned, I think you (as requester) can close this issue...
