    Static class that provides utility methods for clipboard operations.

    The Clipboard class provides static copy and paste methods that can be used by controls to customize the clipboard content during clipboard operations.

    For example, the code below shows how a control could intercept the clipboard shortcut keys and provide custom clipboard handling:

    rootElement.addEventListener('keydown', (e: KeyboardEvent) {

    // copy: ctrl+c or ctrl+Insert if (e.ctrlKey && (e.keyCode == 67 || e.keyCode == 45)) { let text = this.getClipString(); Clipboard.copy(text); return; }
    // paste: ctrl+v or shift+Insert if ((e.ctrlKey && e.keyCode == 86) || (e.shiftKey && e.keyCode == 45)) { Clipboard.paste(text => { this.setClipString(text); }); return; } });

    The example below shows how you can customize the behavior of the clipboard paste command when the target is a FlexGrid control:
