How to enable the default text highlights menu like: Copy/Paste/Search/Share in android webview ?
Working on Android 1.5 – 2.3 you can use
emulateShiftHeld()made public since 2.2 but now is deprecated. this method put your WebView into text selection mode.https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#emulateShiftHeld%28%29
Unfortunately there’s no copy/paste/search/share function integrated in Android, since Android 2.0 the text selection
can be driven by touch but other than that, there’s no other thing you can do.
