Disable Copy and Paste in Phonegap/Cordova but keeping text selection On

[Niteen]

Hi,

I am new to kendo mobile and phonegap/cordova.

I am building a mobile application using phone gap and kendo mobile.

I have a requirement that I want to let user to select text in mobile view but instated showing native clipboard (share/copy/paste) I need to show my menu options to the user.

I tried with restricting user to select text to disable copy/paste options by setting

{
-webkit-user-select: none;
-khtml-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}

but after that I am not able to select the text.

Hoe can I achieve the text selection functionality without showing native copy/paste clipboard?

Please tell me the solution to achieve this.

Thanks in advance.

Niteen

Hello Niteen,

Working with the clipboard is not something that Kendo UI Mobile / Hybrid UI does. You need to research for a solution specific to Cordova.
A quick search on my side showed this plugin and related blog post that might help.

I am leaving this thread open in case anyone from the community wants to share their experience on this subject.

Thanks Tsvetina for your time, reply and suggestions.

This is quite complicated requirement. I have searched a lot regarding this on internet but did not found any solution.

I am seeking help from the community: Cordova + Kendo Mobile developers. Please help.

Thanks in advance.
