Select Text in TextEdit which is inside a flickable

[maxwell31]

Hi,

I need to display a many lines of commands in an application. I thought I would use a TextEdit, and in order to scroll through the lines I put the TextEdit into a Flickable. However, I find, that it is not possible to select text (for copying it to clipboard) if the TextEdit resides inside a Flickable. Is there a workaround?

I should have used a ScrollView instead of Flickable. With ScrollView it works fine.
