annoying "Set as variable" popup on any text highlight

[sparrowsl]

anytime I highlight a text, I keep getting the "set as variable" popup and it's annoying.
sometimes I just want to highlight it, to copy or even just read.

PS: this is the best lightweight client I have used and this is my biggest gripe and pain point

Hi @sparrowsl

Thanks for the feedback. We will look into a solution for this.

But this repo is meant for hosting release binaries. You are supposed to open issues in https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppsctch

Hi @sparrowsl

Your feedback makes sense and we've been considering a different implementation.

What do you think about the approach below?

1. Select a text and open Spotlight (Cmd/Control + K).
2. Spotlight will display the 'Set as Variable' action along with other relevant actions.

Hi @thetronjohnson

thanks for the swift reply,

the options are nice, but is there a way we can opt-in to the actions,
personally, I like to highlight the texts while I think about something.

but if we can select the text and then Cmd/Control + K, then thats super beautiful
