Description

@bahusoid

I want to copy to clipboard some finder content including paths and lines where string were found. But all I can get in clipboard is the actual file content.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

  1. Searh in files for some string via Find In Files dialog (Ctrl+Shift+F).
  2. Try to select some lines in find result dialog including file paths and then right click -> Copy (another issue here is Ctrl+C doesn't work here)
  3. Paste the result in to new document.

Expected Behavior

Ability to copy full info available in "find result" dialog including file path and line numbers. So I can share those results with someone else.

Actual Behavior

Only file content is copied:
