Copy Page Link

Creates a formatted link to the current page and copies it to the clipboard for pasting into another document.

* Press Cmd-Shift-L (Mac) or Ctrl-Shift-L (Windows) to copy the link to the clipboard. * The confirmation popup window displays the link format used and the page title that was copied. * The popup window will auto-close after the time interval selected in the extension options. However, tabbing to one of the popup window form controls (or clicking on the select box) will temporarily cancel auto-close. * To change the default link format, tab to the link format dropdown in the popup window, press down- or up-arrow, and select a new format. * When the default link format is changed, the 'Redo Copy' button is enabled, allowing you to re-copy the link to the current page in the updated format. Workflow improvements: * Directly copy to clipboard with keyboard shortcut or mouse click * Change the default link format from the popup window select box * Access the extension options from the popup window 'Gear' icon By default, the page title is used as the display text for the link. You can override this behavior by selecting a text string within the document — that string will then be used as the display text instead of the page title.
