After double-clicking on an element's class in the Page Inspector's DOM tree and trying to copy it by selecting and pressing Ctrl+C, the entire element's HTML structure is copied instead of just the class. It used to copy only the class. This is very inconvenient and unintuitive. There is a dedicated command for copying HTML. Chrome still has this functionality. It would be good to fix this and revert it to how it was for a better experience.

I am not sure if I understand the issue.

This is what I am doing:

1) Load google.com

2) Inspect the google logo by right clicking on it and executing "Inspect" in the context menu

3) Double click on the <img class="lnXdpd" ... >  element. I am doubleclicking directly on the "lnXdpd" class name.

4) Inline edit field is opened and the `lnXdpd` text selected.

5) I am pressing Ctrl+C and I get "lnXdpd" in the clipboard.

So, it seems to be working correctly, no?

That's right. It's about what you're saying. I see that it's working correctly now. It wasn't working for a while recently. I see the issue has been fixed. Thanks!
