How can I select and copy the text of a read only cell?

Using VS2010 APS.Net 11.2 controls.

I have a cell in a WebHierarchicalDataGrid that is read only. I can select the cell; it has a orange borders.

However, I cannot select and copy the text.

Is there a way in the CSS or Column of a cell to enable this?

Thanks,

Brian.

Hello Brian,

Yes, that is correct, the Clipboard behavior can be used along with Selection.
You can read more about it here:

We still want to have the selected rows shown as a different color. So, did turn on the Clipboard behavior and I can now press Ctrl-C to copy the contents of the row the the clipboard.

Hello Brian,

If you have the Selection behavior enabled in the grid, it prevents default
browser text selection.
You can either remove the selection behavior (not sure if it's an option
for you) or use our new Clipboard behavior to copy selected cell values.
