Description
We used javafx 8 rich text to display log information in colors depends on nature of the issue.Issue is if User has to select the data from rich text(text flow) its not happening. we did not explicitly set the text flow as disabled still not able to select the contents of it.
Comments
Note you still can use impl* API from Text when they are inside a TextFlow. It is a bit more work, but it should work.
