It would be nice to be able to copy text from an individual cell in the list table. This is possible in a crosstab but it would be nice to mimic the excel function of copying from a regular table/cell for the list table.

Could you give us an example, with screen captures? Honestly, I'm not sure what you are asking for.

I cannot provide a screenshot with our data because it is sensitive, but it is essentially copying an individual 'user ID' in a column of User ID's when shown in a list table. That way, we can paste the user ID into our internal database (which we cannot link to due to a firewall) to search the User.

Surely you could make up a fake data set with fake user IDs and show us screen captures of that. But also explain your situation better so I can understand what you want.

 

What SAS product/SAS Interface are you talking about?

I am in SAS Viya (3.5). I do not create the data for us but I grabbed a screenshot of off the internet. Imagine that I am trying to highlight and copy 'Mobile' from Facility City so I can paste it into an internal database.

Hi, Thank you for submitting this request! I agree that a way to easily copy text from our tabular Visual Analytics object like list tables and crosstabs would be very useful.
