Hi!
We really need to be able to copy text out of corp applications. We want people to send their API key info with their apps, and I can't get the data out.

If only there were another way they could give you that info.

Because every corp member with at least recruiter role being able to catalog a database of every applicant's API is not a security hole, right?
EvE is hard. It's harder if you're stupid.

.... they can already do this w/o the need to copy past
EDIT: i may have jumped the gun if you are telling him not to have it sent in apps then i apologize |

While there is certainly already ways to get API's that you can copy and paste, this seems like quick and easy functionality.
Wouldn't mind it myself.

API keys can be disabled by the owners at any time. In fact, we encourage our members to disable the recruit-check API keys upon completion of the application process. So no security hole.
And I don't see why I might not want to copy/paste some other text from the app, maybe to email to a senior member to see what they think. The resistance such a simple feature meets is beyond me. |

The info is already there. I'm not sure why people asking about the ability to copy and paste something instead of having to manually type it is such a big deal. My guess is most of the nay sayers don't understand the request.

This can already be done, however, it is not obvious.
Just hold down left mouse button and drag over the text you want to copy. Once highlighted use the "CTRL-C" key combo to copy, then go to email/whatever and CTRL-V into it to paste. Job done - but not obvious.
Cheers

But that is a security hole you need to monitor their API dayly see who they add as contacts where they are getting their isk and of course read all of there mail!!! New idea lets and chat logs to the api I need to know what they are all saying about meee  |

You guys really don't understand interface design. I guess I should expect that; EVE has a pretty bad interface, has for years, and we still play it because it's such a damned good game. |

I guess I should expect that; EVE has a pretty bad interface, has for years, and we still play it because it's such a damned good game. Ah but you are so wrong, I do understand the interface. The points of importance are simple.
You would have to select the text in some why to begin with, the simple left click and drag has been with us since the dawn of mice and it is doubtful that anything CCP could add would be any easier or more efficient.
To paste back in you still have to activate the window you want to paste to so nothing would change there.
Once selected you would still have to hit some sort of key or button to paste the copied text back in, again it is doubtful that anything CCp could do would be easier or more efficient than a simple ctl-v key press.
The other reason not to add custom features like this is a little thing they call code bloat. Why bloat up up the client code just to duplicate something that already exists. |
