I'd like to quickly differentiate multiple copied texts, and opening the editing mode is not very fast when dealing with many iterations of a long text.

So I'm requesting them to be scrollable when they're long enough to have text beyond the part they're showing.

Can you clarify when you mean by scrollable. Are you asking that long texts actually be scrollable, as in, a scrollable thing within the parent scrollview?

Comment 3 Nate Graham 2025-04-08 16:05:15 UTC
But what specifically? Are you proposing that we add scroll views within scroll views?

What you're making a request, you need to be specific about what you're asking for.

Alternatively, you can open bug reports that describe problems rather than suggesting solutions, and then your suggestions won't get nitpicked to death and shot down. :) See https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Issue_Reporting#Proposing_a_solution

Those two texts are far longer than their two shown lines, so in that I want to move the cursor over them and scroll down the see more of the text.

But I see that it would cause a bigger problem.
