How to copy the args of lock script from the transaction page as the format it displayed?

[yangby-cryptape]

Description

I want to copy the lock script args and go to another page to search this args, to make sure they are the same args.

But, after the upgrade in last week (maybe two weeks ago, I guess).

When I select the args, I could NOT copy it, unless I enable web developer tools and copy it from the source of the page.

It's really a terrible user experience.

Maybe you could tell me that, I could copy it from the "View data as" page, but it only can copy the reverse format of the transaction page displayed.

I have tried all formats in "View data as" page.

Suggestions

Give users an option to disable these features.¹

You can save the user preferences in the browser storage or cache.

Another terrible user experience: When I search an args in the explorer (I tried with Firefox, I guess Chrome is the same), a window always pops up automatically, and hide the content I searched behind the window.

Hi @yangby-cryptape
Could you show me where you were trying to copy the lock_script.args, because I can copy the args in script dialog by cmd + k and copy in right-click menu

It's probably a compatibility issue so it would be great if you could share the platform info.

BTW, a dashboard with settings(Magickbase/ckb-explorer-public-issues#582) will be enabled later, I will add disable decoder in it.

I got. Now you can double-click the args to select the string. @yangby-cryptape it's a bit tricky and I will fix it soon

Can you share a screenshot of how the result is overlapped by the new window

Can you share a screenshot of how the result is overlapped by the new window

• After I input Ctrl+F (search) in Firefox or Chromium, a search bar (belongs to the browser) will pop up.

• Then I Ctrl+V (paste) the args input the search bar, then the "View data as" page will pop up.

• I got. Now you can double-click the args to select the string.

  • Before you fixed this, the "View data as" page will just overlap the args.

  • Now, after you fixed this, the "View data as" page is far away from the args.

• So, I think this bug is fixed too.

For my personal use case, I think you can close this issue as completed.

Glad to know that the decoder dialog doesn't obstruct interaction on the text in some cases. I just pushed another update to keep the dialog next to the selected text, you may have a try.

I will close this issue if the new position of the dialog works for you.

Checked! Passed!

Press Ctrl+F in Firefox and use Ctrl+V to paste the args string into the search bar:
