Make "copy" work better with numpy arrays #2577
Conversation
Previously, if you go to variable explorer, right clicked on a (large) numpy array and clicked copy if copied in the form [[1.0, 2.0 ... 3.0 ]] (i.e. with dots in place of the middle of the array) Now it copies the whole array with as a tab separated string. This is more useful since you can paste directly into Spyder or into a spreadsheet, and no data is omitted. The downside is that the clipboard can get quite large

I have one additional issue with copying arrays from Spyder (under slightly different circumstances) that I'd like to fix, but it's a bit more complicated, so will have have to wait. It'll come under a different pull request I think. |

Thanks @da-woods :-) |

Can you add an space between io and PY3 ?

It should be a bit tidier now. |

That was just a quick code style review, I didn't check the functionality. |

This line is not needed. That's why you're using to_text_string below.

Sorry, forget my comment, this is really necessary :-)

Thanks a lot for your work @da-woods! I'm going to merge it as it is because I need it for other improvements I've done to the Variable Explorer. |
