How to enable text selection (and copy-paste) in Grid

[eugenparaschiv]

I know there is no Java method to do this (there should be, I'm sure that adding a few methods for the most common functionality will not bloat the class but will add value to it), so I'm asking: how do I enable this from CSS. I read the post over at the EXT JS forum but the solutions there did not work. So what styles do I need to modify (.x-grid3-row, .x-grid3-cell-text, .x-grid3-hd-text, .x-grid3-hd, .x-grid3-row?) to enable this. I guess that the attributes to add are simply:
-moz-user-select: text;
-khtml-user-select: text;
but where.
Anybody knows CSS? I'm sure I can figure this out eventually but still, I don't really want to dig to deep into CSS.

Thanks.
Eugen.

Any answer to this? Perhaps a Grid tutorial with these simple functionalities explained? And in the mean time, how do I enable text selection in a grid?

Hi eugenparaschiv,

Did you achieve this, this happens in Firefix that too only for EditorGrid, where EditorTreeGrid text selection works fine. I have tried all the forums suggested solutions like moz-user-select and all. But nothing seems to be working.

Thanks,
Avi

This works just fine

.x-grid3-row td,
.x-grid3-summary-row td,
.x-grid3-cell-text,
.x-grid3-hd-text,
.x-grid3-hd,
.x-grid3-row {
    -moz-user-select: text !important;
    -khtml-user-select:  text !important;
}

Hope i'll get a solution for this.

If you are using GXT then try

grid.disableTextSelection(false);

Hope this will work !!
