Hi,
Currently ignite ui grid allow to copy the content when row selection not enabled. But when the row selection enabled it doesn't allow to copy the content from the grid.
Is any workaround there to fix it or any property there to enable the copy content?
Thanks,

Hello Ponprabhu,
Thank you for contacting Infragistics!
Can you clarify how you are copying when selection is disabled? The reason I ask is because browsers prevent access to the clipboard from JavaScript for security reasons. As such the grid doesn’t support copy and paste. Are you in edit mode when you are copying? Or are you highlighting the text with mouse? If either of those is the case that is a function of the computer’s clipboard and not the browser and not something the igGrid has any interaction with and what you are seeing is the expected behavior.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Hi Mike,

Kindly go to the below url, row selection disabled grid is there and you can see it allow to copy content, it works in all browsers

then go to the below url, row selection enabled grid, but this one not allow to copy

Hope you got the issue,
Hello,
Copy and Paste has not been implemented. The workaround is to enter mode and do the copy/paste as this way the grid/browser won’t be the part interacting with the clipboard.
I wonder if that feature was actually implemented in the following versions?

So I am looking for the answer can i copy/paste to excel from iggrid selected cells/rows and vice versa?
So far that I can see "Paste from excel" title exist but i can not implement on my local project. Besides can i copy selected Excel cells/rows and past to igGrid? And of course i want to do this operation compleately in java script not Asp.NET MVC.

Thanks for your response,
I understand that this is the common behavior of ignite ui grid, Is any option there to work it out. Allow the content to copy from grid when selection enabled?
