I was wondering if there’s an equivalent of the script used to assign linear measurement copying to keyboard shortcuts for angle measurement numerical values?

```auto
def copyLineMeasurementsToClipboard():
  measurements = []
  # Collect all line measurements from the scene
  lineNodes = getNodesByClass('vtkMRMLMarkupsLineNode')
  for lineNode in lineNodes:
    if lineNode.GetNumberOfDefinedControlPoints() < 3:
      # incomplete line, skip it
      continue
    # Get node filename that the length was measured on
    try:
      volumeNode = slicer.mrmlScene.GetNodeByID(lineNode.GetNthControlPointAssociatedNodeID(0))
      imagePath = volumeNode.GetStorageNode().GetFileName()
    except:
      imagePath = '(unknown)'
    # Get line node n
    measurementName = lineNode.GetName()
    # Get length measurement
    lineNode.GetMeasurement('length').SetEnabled(True)
    length = str(lineNode.GetMeasurement('length').GetValue())
    # Add fields to results
    measurements.append('\t'.join([imagePath, measurementName, length]))
  # Copy all measurements to clipboard (to be pasted into Excel)
  outputText = "\n".join(measurements) + "\n"
  slicer.app.clipboard().setText(outputText)
  slicer.util.delayDisplay(f"Copied {len(measurements)} length measurements to the clipboard.")

shortcut2 = qt.QShortcut(slicer.util.mainWindow())
shortcut2.setKey(qt.QKeySequence("Ctrl+m"))
shortcut2.connect( 'activated()', copyLineMeasurementsToClipboard)

```

Yes, sure, you can do the same for angle measurements. Probably all you need to do is to change `'vtkMRMLMarkupsLineNode'` to `'vtkMRMLMarkupsAngleNode'` and `'length'` to `'angle'`.

This worked perfectly - I’ll add the script below in case anyone else will be looking for it:

```auto
def copyAngleMeasurementsToClipboard():
  measurements = []
  # Collect all line measurements from the scene
  angleNodes = getNodesByClass('vtkMRMLMarkupsAngleNode')
  for angleNode in angleNodes:
    if angleNode.GetNumberOfDefinedControlPoints() < 3:
      # incomplete line, skip it
      continue
    # Get node filename that the length was measured on
    try:
      volumeNode = slicer.mrmlScene.GetNodeByID(angleNode.GetNthControlPointAssociatedNodeID(0))
      imagePath = volumeNode.GetStorageNode().GetFileName()
    except:
      imagePath = '(unknown)'
    # Get angle node n
    measurementName = angleNode.GetName()
    # Get angle measurement
    angleNode.GetMeasurement('angle').SetEnabled(True)
    angle = str(angleNode.GetMeasurement('angle').GetValue())
    # Add fields to results
    measurements.append('\t'.join([imagePath, measurementName, angle]))
  # Copy all measurements to clipboard (to be pasted into Excel)
  outputText = "\n".join(measurements) + "\n"
  slicer.app.clipboard().setText(outputText)
  slicer.util.delayDisplay(f"Copied {len(measurements)} angle measurements to the clipboard.")

shortcut2 = qt.QShortcut(slicer.util.mainWindow())
shortcut2.setKey(qt.QKeySequence("Ctrl+t"))
shortcut2.connect( 'activated()', copyAngleMeasurementsToClipboard)

```
