The Issue

Image Image
  • As you can see it is possible to copy the setting name and various other options but it would be very useful to be able to copy the description from the same place.
  • The reason this is a good thing is for people who are doing documentation can make sure they get things right without having to manually type the whole thing out on a text editor.

Additional

Can you also add the ability to copy the setting's options with their descriptions?
