Improved access (reading/copying) of an activity's code

Feature request

Current situation:

As of now, if I want to get an activity's code (as part of its key), this does not work nicely in Activity Browser:

On the left-hand side, the complete key is displayed. In practice however, only the database is readable, the key is clipped off. Also, it is not possible to copy this information.

When opening the activity to the right, its name, location and database is shown per default, with some more options to toggle on or off. The code is not shown anywhere.

Idea for solution:

On the left-hand side, I think it would be ideal to show the two elements of the key (= database and code) separately. It would also be great if it was possible to select and copy the text from the table, including the code, although I am not sure if this is possible.

On the right-hand-side, several options come to mind:

• The code could be added as another line below the activity's name, location and database.
• There could be an additional toggle option next to "edit activity", "description", "uncertainty" and "comments", saying "code". The code could then be displayed in the same way that the description is when toggled on.

I personally think that introducing the separate displaying on the left-hand side and the toggle option on the right would be a great solution.

Good suggestion!

You can already select an activity in the table and use the ctrl + c command to copy the row, which will include the key. However, we should make this a bit more user friendly.
