ctrl+L press doesn't highlight the title bar

[RikkiGibson]

It looks like an editor command which highlights the current line is used when pressing ctrl+L. But, when I write something on DotNetLab and want to share it, I would like to just hit ctrl+L, ctrl+C to copy the current page url.

If it's thought to be more important to make it easy to select the line, that's ok, just thought I'd share my workflow/suggestion.

Interesting, thanks for reporting!

Looks like both https://github.dev and https://vscode.dev support Ctrl+L for highlighting the current line, so it might be nice to stay consistent with them. Although it's probably less common to copy paste URLs there.

Perhaps you could use Alt+D instead to focus the address bar? That's what I was personally using (I didn't know about Ctrl+L). And it seems more universal (e.g., Ctrl+L doesn't work if you have DevTools open).

Although I guess Ctrl+L and Ctrl+C is more ergonomic than Alt+D and Ctrl+C. Also I'm not sure how common is to "highlight the current line" (I'm not using that but I imagine some people might be).

We can definitely make this configurable though (probably add a general way to configure keybindings).

Oh huh! I didn't know about Alt+D to select a line because I'm already using it with Auto Dark Mode to switch between light and dark themes. I tend to do Home, Shift+End or similar to copy a line.

My muscle memory here really comes from sharplab where most of the default editor shortcuts don't work.

Alt+D to select a line

Alt+D is not to select a line, it's to select the URL in the address bar so you can copy it - that's what you currently cannot do in .NET Lab but wanted to via Ctrl+L, right? So I was suggesting you to change your muscle memory from Ctrl+L to Alt+D :)

Misspoke, yes thanks.

It would be nice with an easy way to copy the current URL in the interface itself. I'm one of the few people who uses the app feature in Edge, so Alt+D does nothing.

In v1.14.0, I've added a button for copying the current URL + a keyboard shortcut for it (currently Ctrl+; but I'm open to other ideas).

Still, .NET Lab should probably allow customizing keybindings, so I'm leaving this issue open to track that.
