After pressing the copy command (on my iOS, e.g. cmd + c, having Figma open in Firefox) while having marked some specific part in the code view css text box, the clipboard remains empty or rather *is emptied*, if before there was something in it. The quick-copy buttons work as expected, but not always do I want to copy the whole code, but only certain values or texts.

 

e.g. I would only mark “var(--Typography-Bold, 600)” in the following text and press CMD + C, but it won’t copy. I always have to use the quick-copy buttons and paste it somewhere, then cut out the not needed rest.

overflow: hidden;
color: var(--Font, #ffffff);
text-overflow: ellipsis;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: var(--Typography-Bold, 600);
line-height: var(--Typography-Line-Height, 16px);
 

Hi ​@Raphael Ulrich,

 

I understand you're trying to copy part of a code snippet, but it's not working as expected on iOS.

Just to confirm — are you using an iPad?

 

I don’t have an iOS device on hand at the moment to test this directly. On macOS, you can select part of the code, right-click, and choose “Copy” from the context menu.

I'll check with our team to see if a similar right-click equivalent is supported on iPad that would allow you to access the copy menu when selecting part of a code snippet.

 

Thanks,
