Wish Option to copy full sub path

[Chris2]

I often make separate notes (e.g. a Change Log) when modifying apps. These notes make reference to the location of changes using a ModuleName.SubName notation (e.g. ChartClass.FillChart).
To save having to type these out it would be useful to have a shortcut to get the full reference path of a sub within the IDE, perhps via the right-click menu

For example, a right-click option 'Copy Full Reference' in the below would copy the text 'Module1.Sub2' to the clipboard

Isn't this same as Goto Identifier in this menu?

No. GoTo Identifier takes you to the referenced sub in the IDE. I'm talking here about copying the sub reference as text into another app (Notepad++ for example)

Certainly would be useful. What I would like to see is also a way to copy the entire sub to the clipboard.

I don't find it useful outside the IDE. If use inside the IDE we have auto completion.

to copy the entire sub to the clipboard.

Just collapse the sub and press Ctrl+C.

AI starts making us too lazy, we are getting used to have to much shortcuts in our life.

i guess google translate again failed or you did not understood my joke.
we are all used today that everything for us is done by someone else like AI that can do the job for you
and this makes us so lazy that we are searching for replacement for such simple task like copy few lines using CRTL+C
instead we want a button that does this.

don't take me to serious it was just a joke
