Prevent Paste but allow Copy (bug?)

Toyb

Description of problem:
When I select a cell the user needs to be able to copy the value to the clipboard but it needs to be read-only so it can't be changed. My table does this, however, if my user executes a clipboard paste it changes the cell value. How can I prevent this (bug?).

Link to test case:
To see what's happening just select a cell and paste some text.

Hi,

Not a bug, it just wasn't a feature. It was either clipboard (copy and paste) enabled or not. However, based on your post, I've just committed a change to allow copy and paste actions to be enabled independently - e.g.:

let table = new DataTable('#example', {
    keys: {
        clipboard: {
            copy: true,
            paste: false
        }
    }
});

That will be included in the next release.
