We have the requirement that the user wants to select the content of read only String properties in forms. With this the user can copy the content of a String property and paste it into another application. There are two ways to add a read only String property to the form.

• as bound label
• as text field

A label does not allow any value selection therefore this is not an option for us. So we add it as text field. However the form component sets the text field as not editable and not focusable. Which makes it impossible to select its value.
