Ability to copy the name of a node

vvvv gamma feature

I discovered that in some libraries, the name of a node (function) can consist of five to seven words and can sometimes be quite complicated or long.

I also found that I can’t copy this name to Google it, for example. I haven’t found a workaround either.

Is there a way to copy only the name and not the node?

Maybe OT, but what is the point of googleing the name of a node?

Vibecoding) For example, I took Bluetooth from WinRT, and there are GetGattServicesForUuidAsync, FromBluetoothAddressAsync or WriteClientCharacteristicConfigurationDescriptionAsync. However, there are an infinite number of similar nodes in that category. The entire pipeline consists of nodes with similar names. Some are asynchronous, and some are not. It really hard to prompt this kind of stuff without ability to just copy and paste the name

You might be able to put something together with VL.HDE.
The helppatch “Preview selected nodes” might point you in the right direction.

@readme I’d say it’s a fundamental problem. The workaround is fine, but it’s not really what I’m asking for. Would it be a good idea to add that to the Inspector, at least?

I had already finished patching by the time the issue was posted on the forum. But this is not the first time I’ve realised that I can’t just copy letters from a node. It just feels weird and not really fair.
