Does this work with any text on page (vs just inputs)?
Currently dealing with several digital textbooks - that I fucking purchased - from Elsevier that disable copy functions, which makes pulling chunks of text from a page to take notes a pain in the ass. I've resorted to just using the snipit tool to capture tiny screenshots of the text I want, but that's ofc significantly less ideal than just highlighting text and hitting Ctrl+C.
I find that pressing Ctrl+C while highlighting the text (still holding left click) works, at least with Cengage
