Accessibility - Allow all text to be selectable

Open jquesada2016 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Currently, the UI does not allow text selection in cirtain parts, which causes screen reader to not read aloud the contents.

For example, in the editor, when executing a query that returns id's, the ID itself cannot be selected, making it impossible for me to copy it to the clipboard and use other tools to further analyze the text.

This is more problematic when using polymorphic queries, since the UI gives an aid as to what type the id points to.

Another place where this issue manifests itself is #392 in the screenshot. Since I can't select to copy the error message, or any of the resulting query text, it becomes almost impossible to know what the issue is since I can't copy the text to read the individual characters and symbols.
