disable selection of text and images
Hi I am totally new to this group. I want to disable selection of Text and graphics in my QWebView, it seems that there is no way via Qt i can do this , so only option I am left with is to modify webkit code. I am new to webkit code too, but I am willing to put my time and effort to do this, Can any one please suggest what file/function should I be modifying in webkit?? Or does any one has any other solution other than modifying webkit? I will highly appreciate any input on this. BR -- Efan Harris
Put * { -webkit-user-select: none; } in your user-agent stylesheet? Simon On Oct 18, 2010, at 10:12 PM, Efan... wrote:

Hi All unfortunately I can not use JAVA script or any thing like that cause my application is totally c++ , QT based. I need to make the change in webkit src code I guess. On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 8:39 AM, Simon Fraser <simon.fraser@apple.com>wrote:

Note that this is already supported (with no source changes) on Mac OS X via the editing delegate method -webView:shouldChangeSelectedDOMRange:toDOMRange:affinity:stillSelecting:. Perhaps Qt WebKit is missing an equivalent to that delegate interface (a cursory look in EditorClientQt.cpp suggest that it is).

Hi, I think I talked with this person on IRC last night, and I suggested him to modify EditorClientQt::shouldChangeSelectedRange to always return false. FYI, there is a bug to add this feature on Qt ports: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38520 - Ryosuke On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 10:17 AM, Dan Bernstein <mitz@apple.com> wrote:

Ah might be Raving Jason would have had word with you, he is my colleague he told me on skype today to do the same, return false from that method, But that will permanently disable it I am just looking some way to enable disable this when ever developer want using some api at Qt level or somewhere else. May be would like to have implementation like shouldChangeSelectedDOMRange as in OSX. On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 10:27 AM, Ryosuke Niwa <rniwa@webkit.org> wrote:
