Read-Only Editor clear pasted text

Bug report

Reproduction of the problem

  1. Open the https://dojo.telerik.com/SSFszYRK or https://dojo.telerik.com/yYFBekrt
  2. Copy some text
  3. Select part of the text in the Editor and try to paste using Ctrl + V

Current behavior

Currently, the highlighted (selected) text dissapers.

Expected/desired behavior

The selected text should not dissapear and the content of the Editor should remain unchanged.

Workaround

kendo.ui.editor.Clipboard.fn.onpaste = function(){
        if (this.editor.body.contentEditable === "false" || this.editor.body.contentEditable === "inherit" ) {
          return;
        }
      }

Environment

  • Kendo/Telerik version: 2026.2.520

Hi Sergei,

Thank you for reporting this glitch! This report is a duplicate of Read-Only Editor clear pasted text. I can confirm that the issue is reproducible, e.g. when the Editor is in read-only mode, selecting part of the text and attempting to paste with Ctrl+V causes the selected text to disappear. We'll keep an eye on this and aim to fix it in the source code.

Thanks again for your feedback!

Regards,
