[FEAT] Add a feature to make it possible so select and copy text in grid without trigger click event in Admin grid.

[JesperHerrloff]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Description

Would it be of interest to implement said solution? Only one file is affected and will fix the issue in every admin grid.

I can make a pull request if there is interest in the solution? Its only a conditional check in js/mage/adminhtml/grid.js to fix this permanently.

Expected Behavior

Be able to select for example sku in admin grid for products or order incrementId in order grid.

A selection should not trigger click.

Benefits

I think this will benefit all ecommerce users, as they will be able to select for example a sku in backend copy it then search it in frontend to verify it is searchable.

I think it will not do any harm to anyone.

Anything else?

This is a fix I do every release. :) It would be nice to make this into the framework.

@kiatng do you have some minutes to write a short docunentation (doc blog-post?)

Not tested, but is it possible to make columns copyable via xml or observer?

(something for #3451 ?)

@sreichel As requested: PR #4678

It is possible to make col copyable in xml (your PR #4225) by adding 'copyable' in this line

magento-lts/app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/Block/Widget/Grid.php

Line 392 in 71f38e9

$boolean = ['display_deleted', 'filter', 'sortable', 'store_view'];

It is possible also in observer with the event 'adminhtml_block_html_before'.

As for #3451, I think it's better to add the feature as an layout update.

[JesperHerrloff]

Its a nice solution. But There will be a lot of work to make it work with Enhanced Admingrids I think. Will check it out later when having more time to check if it will work.

My solution for now is to add this snippet here
if(!window.getSelection().isCollapsed){ return; }
Before this line and this works

magento-lts/js/mage/adminhtml/grid.js

Line 129 in ec284ac

if(this.rowClickCallback){

This way my client is free to copy with selection not a button.
