Overview
[Overview]
Have you ever tried to select text on a video caption, a protected website, or inside a hyperlink, only to find it impossible?
DeepSelect removes those barriers. It allows you to force-select and copy any text on the web—including video captions, link text, and copy-protected content.
🎉 New Feature: Now includes a Smart URL Copy tool that lets you copy page URLs and titles in your own custom format!
[Key Features]
✅ Select Unselectable Text
Easily select text that is usually blocked, such as video captions on YouTube/Netflix/TikTok, text on copy-protected websites, and UI elements.
✅ Select Text Inside Links
Highlight specific words inside a hyperlink without opening the link.
✅ Smart URL Copy with Custom Formats
Copy the current page's Title and URL with a single click.
- Fully Customizable: You can define the output format using JavaScript.
- Quick Shortcut: Activates with a customizable mouse button + modifier key (Ctrl/Alt/Shift) combination.
✅ Auto-Copy
The moment you release your mouse button after selecting, the text is automatically copied to your clipboard.
[Solves These Common Frustrations]
- Hyperlink Text: Selecting part of a link usually drags it. DeepSelect lets you highlight just the words you want.
- Video Captions: Copy text from overlays on streaming platforms where text is usually unclickable.
- Protected Content: You can copy text on protected webpages
[How to Use]
1. To Force Select Text:
- Hold the Mouse Button (right <default> or left) on text for 0.5 seconds (customizable).
- Once "Selection Mode" activates, drag to highlight the text.
- Release to automatically copy.
2. To Smart Copy URL:
- Hold your modifier key (e.g., Ctrl or Alt) and click the mouse button (left/right/middle) (default: Ctrl + right).
- The page URL will be copied to your clipboard.
(To use custom format, write custom format in JavaScript and enable custom formatting feature)
[Important Note: What Cannot be Selected]
This extension works on text rendered as HTML code.
❌ Text embedded inside image files (JPG, PNG, GIF) cannot be selected.
❌ "Burned-in" subtitles that are part of the video file itself.
