Yes, please! URL would be great. I have clients ask me all the time for the URLs of images and PDFs, and there is no simple way I can give them to find this out for themselves. I don't think contexts matter for this purpose, all files have an absolute URL on the server regardless of context used for the web pages themselves.

Do you mean full file path? Or the URL? If the latter, how should we differentiate between contexts?

you could choose with a submenu which context,
or take that of the current resource (in case of using it via TV)

Exactly what @rainbowtiger said!
This just hit me (again), as my client also doesn't know how to deduce the URL of a file..
There is already the option "Copy path", so "Copy URL" would be extremely good here.
Also, this need the base-path from the media-source and has nothing to do with contexts.

@JoshuaLuckers I guess it solved by https://github.com/modxcms/revolution/pull/14078, isn't it?

This is about copying the URL, not the path
