Add ability to copy direct link

[jospoortvliet]

The server has this nice 'copy direct link' button:

(the little notepad)

I'd love to see it too in the desktop client share dialog 🏎️

There is 'copy direct link' menu, but it is hidden in drop-down menu in sharing dialog. Sole fact that you filed this issue means that it definitely can be more visible, I just wanted to comment so people looking at this issue are aware. Issue either should be closed, or renamed as "Make copy link more prominent" :)

What do you think @jancborchardt ?

[jancborchardt]

@stalker314314 @camilasan the "Copy link" there is not the same as the "Internal link" @jospoortvliet is referring to.

However, the implementation of that needs to be properly discussed, which is happening in nextcloud/server#12877
(The "internal link" was added a long time ago without proper design discussion, which now results in confusion like people copying the internal link, thinking others not on that Nextcloud can open it.)

@jancborchardt @jospoortvliet @camilasan What is the status of this? Should we close this issue?

[jancborchardt]

We have it in the right-click menu, but the sharing dialog doesn't have it like the web interface or mobile apps, where "Internal link" is an extra entry.

For feature parity that would be the 100% solution. :)

Right, we have this (copy internal link), but it's not in the share dialog itself:

Not a big deal, I'd have this low prio...
