Editing InfoSnippetPlugin

[[PageOutline(2-5,Contents,pullout)]] = Present a box with basic ticket and wiki-page information and copy it to clipboard == Description The **InfoSnippetPlugin** plugin assembles ticket or wiki-page information like ticket number, title and URL all together at one place at the bottom of page. The user can then use a button to copy this information as text into the system clipboard. The plugin uses !JavaScript to create an **"Info" box** (aka. snippet) at the bottom of the page. - For tickets the snippet info text contains project ID, ticket number, title and URL. - For wiki-pages the snippet info text contains project ID, wiki-name, headline (if exist) and URL. A button is provided which can be used to copy the information snippet text into the clipboard (using !JavaScript). == Info Snippet for Tickets For tickets the info-snippet appears below the "Change Properties" box: [[Image(infosnippet_screenshot_01.png, width=800px, border=1)]] == Info Snippet for Wiki Pages For wiki pages the info-snippet appears at the bottom of the page: [[Image(snippet_wiki.png, width=800px, border=1)]] == Context Menu Additionally ticket and wiki pages present an extra **"Info" navigation item** in the context navigation bar. Clicking it copies the content of the "Ticket Info" data into the clipboard. Basically this is a convenience short-cut as one does not need to scroll down to the "Ticket Info" in order to fill the clipboard. [[Image(infosnippet_screenshot_02.png, width=800px, border=1)]] == Motivation Many people used to refer to tickets or wiki pages in e-mails. One may want to include the ticket number the ticket summary (aka. title) and the ticket URL - kind of a ticket snippet. Of course, basically the process is simply a copy&paste via clipboard, because all these information fragment are prominently present in the Trac ticket page. However, one has to do copy&paste multiple times. We want more convenience with this copy&paste of ticket information. It might not count for just one ticket, but if one frequently has to do it for dozens of tickets, then it becomes tedious. == !Bugs/Feature Requests Existing bugs and feature requests for InfoSnippetPlugin are [report:9?COMPONENT=InfoSnippetPlugin here].
