Copy Verse from Context Menu

Using the NIV (the 2011 one) you can right click on a verse and get an option to copy the reference. For instance it might say "Copy Ruth 1:1"

This gives you a verse formatted with reference number and with all of the extra marks taken out (such as footnote marks). But I can't seem to make that work with other translations. The only option I see in the context menu is to simply "copy" and this simply copies what you have highlighted.

Is this only available in the NIV translation or am I missing an option to turn it on in the other ones?

I can confirm that I see the Copy reference in the ESV as well as the NIV1984 and NIV2011.

You get just 'Copy' if you have selected 'Selection'.

This gives...

²⁰^pThen he made the upright frames for the tabernacle of ^qacacia wood.

You get Copy Exodus 36:20 in this case if you have selected 'Reference'.
