Is it possible to allow user to copy the text of the label which is displaying on the screen, as retyping may cause some error . below is the example.

 

It will help to save time and error free copy to be pasted where he need to.

 

Please guide.

    @MIA27 I can copy text from an app just by selecting it and pressing the old CTRL+C. You could try this for yourself as well. So to answer your question: yes, this is possible

    Please note I want to copy the text of the label. Not the text of textbox

     

    how to copy the text of the label - by CTRL+C  ?.

     

    I tried, it does allow even to select so that it can be copied.

     

    Situation is that many records get filtered  in the gallery, based on the criteria search given input.

    the gallery has labels to display, as shown in my image.

     

    Out of the result, it may require to copy any of the label's text and paste to else where as per the requirement.

     

     I hope I was able to explain.

     

    Kindly guide

    You could try to create a button that would copy the text of the label.

    Copy( lblText.Text )

    Copy function - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn

    If it does not copy the label text you may need to create a read-only text field then make it bold and place it where you would the fields label.

    Hi @MIA27 

     

    Try using a TextInput control instead but make it read only, this should allow copying of the data.
