In Views: Make read-only fields copyable

Minor UI UX improvement request:

Our use case
: We display the item ID as a column in a view, but there is not an easy way to copy it. 
Workaround for internal users: Have to open the item, open the fields section, find the ID and copy it.
Workaround for public dashboard: Write down by hand, or get it via the browser inspector tool (which cannot possibly be the expectation).
Request: Hoping there is an easy UI modification to make all read-only fields copyable.

P.S. If you would like to see this request implemented, please upvote it and ask your friends to. Minimum threshold is 60 votes.

I second this! The issue is also regarding text field containing links, like an email address. It's not possible to select the text without following the link.

Florian Kislich, I haven't tried this in Wrike, but typically, in browsers, you can select the text of the link by holding down the "Alt" key. Any chance that works for you?

Hi Sergey Lyakh,

thanks for this tip, unfortnunately this doesn't work in wrike. But I found a different soultion by accidet: If clicking on a filed in table view that contains a link by choosing a free space of this filed (at the right of the text), the edit mode is activated and it's possible to select the content. Sadly this won't work in your case, as you need to copy read-only information.
