I am creating an app in MATLAB Web App Server 2024a. Accessing the system’s clipboard using the clipboard function is not supported, as described in the unsupported functionality page. I am looking for an alternative so that users can paste the contents of their clipboard into a UITable.
Interestingly, despite the lack of support for the clipboard function, users are still able to paste text from their clipboard using the key combination to paste if they double click a cell in the table first so that there’s a flashing cursor. This leads me to believe that Web App Server is able to access the system clipboard, although I can’t seem to figure out how to do so (ie. if there’s a different function to call). Is there a way for me to access the user’s clipboard in Web App Server without the clipboard function? As it stands, users can only paste if they’ve double-clicked a cell in the table. A single click won’t do, and I’d like to add functionality to enable that.
Any insights are appreciated. Thank you!I am creating an app in MATLAB Web App Server 2024a.
