Description piedro 2025-02-15 12:31:15 UTC 
SUMMARY

Opening a contact and then trying to copy the information doesn't work! 
It's impossible to mark or select text like every where else in KDE - it seems as if Merkuro Contacts isn't even a KDE application... a contact management application is rather useless if you can only show but not copy information like a telephone number or  parts of the address - ext has to be selectable imho.  

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open a contact 
2. try selecting a string of text with the mouse 
3. selection fails 

OBSERVED RESULT
see above - failure to copy information renders the application unusable for common use cases 

thx for reading!
