Popular Universal Reddit reader Readit has had a small update to version 4.9.5.0.
The minor update brings a very useful and till now elusive feature – the ability to copy html links in self-posts.
It appears the UWP platform does not support copying individual links via right-click, causing the developer CalebKeith to create his own implementation.
Right clicking anywhere in a post will now offer the ability to copy a selection of links from that post as seen in the image above.
The full changelog reads:
General Additions
- Added a right click menu to self text posts
- copy text – will copy the entirety of the self text as markdown atm
- copy link – visible if links are in self text
- Sub items will be links, click on one to copy it to the clipboard
- Added a copy link item to Idea
- Sub items will be links, click on one to copy it to the clipboard
- The only solution to copying links is how I implemented it above. UWP doesn’t support context menus for individual links
Bug Fixes
- Fixed subreddit filtering causing your subscribed subreddit to not load links if it was a part of your filter. (non-gold users only)
