Chrome Dev Tools support querying a web sql database but the result is shown in a table that cuts off strings that are too long with ellipsis (...)

How can i view the entire columns content? Because of the cutoff a ctrl-a selection + copy does not work

Clicking three times on the value to select it and copying it seems to be working:

Chrome DevTools - select websql item value

  • that was indeed the solution but it is not done with simple copying, doing this would copy the cut-off-ellipsis dragging like youve shown here is the right way to do it, weird unintuitive way – AdrianLoer Jul 07 '15 at 07:43
  • @user3789620 agreed, it's not very intuitive. – Konrad Dzwinel Jul 07 '15 at 09:19
  • +1 for the animated gif solution. I've found that three clicks then right-click (bringing up context popup) and selecting Copy does work and does not include the ellipsis when pasting into notepad (or whatever). Agreed its non-intuitive. – robnick Feb 20 '19 at 02:41
  • Fantastic! You saved my day! I've been struggling with this so long – afrish Oct 16 '19 at 11:13
  • Thank you! I had to triple click and keep the mouse button down while pressing Cmd+C to copy. – Arthur Khazbs Apr 13 '22 at 16:40
  • This only seems to work when viewing the entire table contents, not when working with query results. – jakdep Aug 08 '23 at 08:16
