Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The disassembly view in template foldability is useful for seeing how templates are very similar but slightly different. It has the file name and line number in the disassembly. However, the text cannot be selected and therefore cannot be copy/pasted to a text editor to view the source code.

Describe the solution you'd like
The text in this view should be selectable and support copying.

Start from the template foldability disassembly view in the SizeBench desktop tool and inspect how its file names, line numbers, and disassembly text are rendered. Done means the displayed text can be selected and copied into a text editor, with the visible content preserved.
