copy the coordinates of a point

Answered

For example I construct a point by the command

E=Intersect(line(A,B),line(C,D))

then I can see the coordinates of E in the algebra view

how can I copy the coordinates of E?

In this circumstance, I have to copy them digit by digit or by OCR, but it sometimes makes a mistake. Is there a direct way to copy the coordinates of E?

I mean, to copy the numerical coordinates.

For example, the rounding is set to be 10 decimal places, I wish to copy a 10 digit decimal

x(E) is the exact x-coordinate of a point E (likewise y(E)), regardless the setting of the roundng. What's the problem with that? Please explain if you want something else.

Ok. For example, it is shown on the algebra view that x(E)=1.234567890 and I want to copy 1.234567890 to my clipboard. How can I do that without copying digit by digit?

Because I want to use the numerical value in another software😀

Oh I see. Just click E in the algebra view and Ctrl+C, then I get

x(E) = 0.2994632234

Also CopyFreeObject(x(E)) or CopyFreeObject(round(x(E),10))

Also you could put this in a button:

var str = ggbApplet.getXcoord("E");
ggbApplet.copyTextToClipboard(str);
