Copy Value returns entire row

[mohamed-umar]

Hey !!!
copyValue() function Returns entire row even one column of row is selected. Can you please return Only selected values instead of entire rows.

Calling the CopyValue() out of loop with CopyData should return the ONLY SELECTED value for ONE TIME.
Can you please make the change if possible..

The issue am facing is..
Am currently using webpack@4.41.2, in which webpack-dev-server uses 'html-entites' of older version.
But in your code Datasheetgrid.jsx: line: 614 you are using html-entites' of latest version.
But updating 'html-entites' breaks my webpack..

So i tried to use copyValue function , but it returned entire row insated of selected value...so am finding it difficult to process

I have no idea what valueCopy is, I cannot find it anywhere in the codebase, you need to provide some code if you'd like to be helped.

@nick-keller Here is the function mentioned in Doc..

In Code path: components/DataSheetGrid.jsx line 595

Hey @mohamed-umar ,
This is not a bug, according to the doc this is exactly how copyValue should work so I will not change it.

I believe that you are trying to use it to do something else because you have a dependencies issue and the built-in copy does not work in your setup. Apparently, you are not willing to share your code, so I still have no idea what valueCopy is or what exactly you are doing.

I might try to remove the dependency on html-entities and build it in-house, that might solve your issue.

[mohamed-umar]

Yeah, that too should help me..
thanks @nick-keller

Sorry to ask, When can i expect the changes to be published @nick-keller

[nick-keller]

No idea, but you can make it happen really quick if you want to submit a PR ;)

[mohamed-umar]

Hey @nick-keller !!! I will do the changes and raise PR..
But cannot able to create a branch from master branch..can you help me on this..

[nick-keller]

I just published a new version that does not require html-entities to work, that should fix your problem ;)
