Double click for parameter selection

Michael | Last updated: Jul 03, 2020 12:31PM UTC

Hello, Until recently, Burp Suite had a very useful feature that allowed the selection of the entire parameter name of value with a double click. Since a few updates ago, this was removed, with Burp Suite now behaving similar to notepad where double click text selection is limited between special characters. As a result, double-clicking on a URL-encoded parameter value no longer selects the entire value but a small part of it (delimited by %, - etc). Michael

I'm sorry, I lost my train of thought and missed to finish my message. Is it therefore possible to enable this feature and if not, can you bring it back?

Hi You should be able to select an entire parameter with a triple-click.
