You must mean highlight part of the pasted image url, then click select all, then click the Image on the left.
That is a much slower so less efficient than the 3-step i developed under the old set-up.
Copying the image location url is the same. You could then do as you suggest now. Same again.
My old method .. copy image location url .. click Image on left, giving you your NOT highlighted img notation and with your cursor blinking where you want it .. paste.
There was no need to highlight anything.

It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
