copy to clipboard from disabled Textbox

I have a TextBox disabled but would like the user to still be able to copy its content to the clipboard. However when IsEnabled is not set copy/paste is not allowed.

Is there a way to achieve this?

You're not really supposed to interact with a "disabled" control.

Instead, set the TextBox.IsReadOnly property to true.

If you want it to "look" disabled, you could set the background color to grey, like it is when it is disabled.
