Description Todd 2011-01-13 03:58:28 UTC

Version:           SVN (using KDE 4.5.95) 
OS:                Linux

It would be nice if you could right-click on a file in the documents panel and click "copy filename" or something like that to put the filename to the clipboard.  

It is very common for me to want to put the filename of one open file in the text of another open file.  Currently I have to select the file, save as, then copy that, then close the save as dialog, then go back to the file I want, then paste.

Reproducible: Always

edit -> copy does NOT copy the filename. 
How can the filename (including full path) be copied to the clipboard?

Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2013-12-27 22:22:26 UTC

Ken, right-click on the filename in the "Documents" sidebar, then select "Copy Filename".
