My Question or Issue

 

While it is possible to hold the "option" aka "alt" modifier key while hovering over the "Share" menu and clicking "Copy Spotify URI"

 

(following instructions on these pages, the first of which links to the second:

https://community.spotify.com/t5/FAQs/How-do-I-embed-music-in-the-Community/ta-p/1070599

https://community.spotify.com/t5/FAQs/What-s-a-Spotify-URI/ta-p/919201

)

 

…the same is not true if holding "control" (instead of "option" aka "alt").  If holding "control" it is not possible to click.  The menu stays open, and nothing happens.

 

This is a minor issue, but to someone skimming the instructions, it is very easy to miss the fact that "option" aka "alt" works as well (or at least, it was easy for me to miss it the first time around 😅).
