Make urls more clickable in server push response

Open howeaj opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Problem description

  1. When setting preference Advanced > Show Command Status > Always , the response message shown does not have clickable links. They are only clickable when you view the message from the status icon.

  2. They aren't left-clickable or ctrl-left-clickable, nor does the cursor change when mousing over, which is the way the majority of all other apps (e.g. browsers, word processors, etc) handle URLs; you can only open them in the right-click menu.

See the comments on https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_merge/issues/42 for the confusion caused by the incumbent solution.

Preferred solution

  1. Make URLs in the "always show" response message clickable in the same way as when viewing them from the status menu.

  2. Make the links openable by left click, not just in the right-click menu.

Alternatives

  1. If not just a normal left click, make the links openable by CTRL-leftclick
