Previously, if I had my cursor on a task title in the center pane, without any text highlighted, I could press control + c to copy the task link. Now, nothing happens. Does anyone else remember this? I don’t know when it stopped working.

Hello @Will_Reade15,

do you refer to what Shun mentioned here:

> [@How about a keyboard shortcut to copy the task link](https://forum.asana.com/t/how-about-a-keyboard-shortcut-to-copy-the-task-link/48312/3):
>
> I use Ctrl + L (Windows) or Cmd + L (Mac) to activate the address bar and then press Ctrl + C (Windows) or Cmd + C (Mac) to copy the URL. This way the “/f” at the end is not included.

And [here](https://forum.asana.com/t/unify-the-experience-of-copying-task-links/457653) is a feedback request thread that might be interesting.

@Andrea_Mayer Thanks for that! I’m seeing what @Benjamin_Constantine reported. The control + c works on list view but not when I am looking at search results. When I put my cursor on the task in the center section of the search results, the control + c doesn’t work. I will add this info to [Unify the experience of copying task links](https://forum.asana.com/t/unify-the-experience-of-copying-task-links/457653).
