New proposed design pattern - click to copy validation
Problem
Sometimes in the product, users need to copy a small piece of information to paste or refer to later in another place. Some examples of where we allow this are in issues and MRs. Users have the ability to click the clipboard icon to copy either a reference or an issue email path. When doing so though, there's no validation that in fact the element successfully copied, the tooltip providing details of the copy experience simply disappears. My proposal is that we swap the tooltip contents to display the word "Copied!" once this has happened to give that feedback to the user.
Default hover | Once copied |
