Bug report: Copying password from Managed Database connection parameters adds a leading space

Asked by TinySeaGreenDinghy
Hi, I’ve found a bug in the UI which tripped me up for a few hours today. When you copy the database password from the “Connection Parameters” a leading space will be added in the clipboard. To replicate:
- View the cluster details for a DO managed database (in my case Postgres)
- In the connection details section select “Connection Parameters” in the dropdown
- Next to password click “show”
- Double click the password to highlight it, Copy it (using keyboard shortcuts)
- Paste it somewhere and a leading space is added to the string

Hi @TinySeaGreenDinghy,
I did not see any space getting added while copying the password from the connection details on the database page. I have tried pasting the password in the terminal, text editor but did not see space getting added.
