I am using the StaticText control to display read-only data to the
user. It is a nice compact control and for the UI I created the
EditField is just too large.
But what I would like to do is allow the user to select the text
within the StaticText control so that they could "Copy" the data into
other applications. I find it a big surprise that the StaticText
control does not allow you to select text (at least as an option)...
since I have seen this behavior in a number of other applications.
So I am looking for alternatives...
Like I said the EditField is too large, and I need to have a
transparent background on the control. I am thinking that a custom
canvas is what I need to do, but handling selection of only part of
the string is no trivial task.
Any other suggestions? Anyone have a class like this?
