@Override
protected void onSelectionChanged(int selStart, int selEnd) {
if (onSelectionChangedListener == null){
return;
}
String result=this.getText().subSequence(selStart, selEnd).toString();
if(result.length()>1){
onSelectionChangedListener.onSelectionChange(result);
}
}
public void setOnSelectionChangedListener(OnSelectionChangedListener onSelectionChangedListener){
this.onSelectionChangedListener = onSelectionChangedListener;
}
public void disableCopyPast() {
this.setCustomSelectionActionModeCallback(new Callback() {
public boolean onPrepareActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
return false;
}
public void onDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode) {
}

MenuItem item) {

}
});
this.setTextIsSelectable(true);
}
public interface OnSelectionChangedListener{
public void onSelectionChange(String result);
}
}
xml code :
<video.TextViewSelectable
android:id="@+id/offLine_subtitleText"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="12"
android:ellipsize="middle"
android:gravity="center"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:clickable="true"
android:textIsSelectable="true"
android:textColorHighlight="#fffffe60"
style="@android:style/Holo.ButtonBar"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:textSize="15sp"/>
usage:
private TextViewSelectable subtitleText;
subtitleText = (TextViewSelectable)findViewById(R.id.offLine_subtitleText);
subtitleText.setOnSelectionChangedListener(this);
You can't, not entirely. Even if you block all those, if you use a keyboard such as swipe you can access copy and paste via the keyboard (swype key to c and swype key to v gestures), which does NOT use any of that functionality and can't be blocked.
