I’ve tried Chrome, Safari, Firefox, print as PDF, Save As HTML, nothing I do allows me to copy text from the final code sample box on this page, on a Mac: Learn game development w/ Unity | Courses & tutorials in game design, VR, AR, & Real-time 3D | Unity Learn
I can’t get it from the source either, as the source is mangled with HTML table elements in order to implement the syntax highlighting…
Same here. This is insane for a CODE TUTORIAL?! How long has it been broken like this?
Workaround (on windows in Chrome Browser): select all the code, right-click, print. In the print preview you can select all the code and you can copy it from there.
Same problem, makes it much harder to follow the tutorials
This is not a bug, but an intentional function.
Copying is a standard OS & Browser function. And you need to take some actions (in javascript) to prevent its work.
Some not too smart person thinks this is for good or just sabotages.
same here
absolutely ridiculous, this is a bug and there is no other way about it!
does not work in incognito too, copying and pasting a new text file thinking is a windows problem or something, such a time waster, hate it
meanwhile, i just select all the code and then left click and then search google for then copying from google`s input tab
Same here, like really? Unity? Tutorial? Prevent copy+paste?
It’s by design. They block copy and paste, it’s really frustrating!
If you use Chome you can install an extension like this one. I’m sure there will be others for Firefox etc.
I just wanted to take some personal notes but couldn’t copy and paste it. Writing notes manually is very exhausting especially with one monitor…
Thx Aeldron;
for FireFox use the Extension “Copy Plain Text”
works like a Charm
Go to Browser > Developer Tools > Console and paste the following code to get the complete Script
const codes = […document.querySelectorAll(‘code’)]
codes.forEach(code => {
const text = code.innerText
console.log(text)
})
