ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Maik Qualmann 2023-03-07 20:24:04 UTC 
We can make individual values selectable and copyable relatively easily. Is that enough, or are all values actually required as a block?

Comment 2 Bob D 2023-03-07 21:43:13 UTC 
Selecting/copying individual values would be ample. 
I'd like to be able to select full file path, e.g. Q:\folder1\folder2\filename.tif, instead of Q:\folder1\folder2\ and filename.tif separately.(In reply to Maik Qualmann from comment #1)

Selecting/copying individual values would be ample for me.
I'd like to be able to select full file path, e.g. "Q:\folder1\folder2\filename.tif", instead of "Q:\folder1\folder2" and "filename.tif" separately.

Comment 5 Maik Qualmann 2023-03-08 07:58:00 UTC 
File name and folder can be copied with the mouse in the properties tab.
The complete path can now be reached by copy / paste because Bug 467013 has been fixed.
