  - ### setSupportsInlineEdit

    public EditProxy setSupportsInlineEdit(Boolean supportsInlineEdit) throws IllegalStateException
    Whether this EditProxy has an inline edit behavior, which allows an end user to configure a component by editing a simple text representation of its configuration.

    For example, when inline edit is enabled, a `SelectItem` allows `editing its valueMap` as a comma-separated string, and a `ListGrid`'s columns and data can be edited as several lines of comma-separated headings and data values.

    See `inlineEditEvent` for more details and configuration options.

    Parameters:
      `supportsInlineEdit` - New supportsInlineEdit value. Default value is true
    Returns:
      `EditProxy` instance, for chaining setter calls
    Throws:
      `IllegalStateException` - this property cannot be changed after the underlying component has been created

  - ### getSupportsInlineEdit

  - ### setUseCopyPasteShortcuts

    public EditProxy setUseCopyPasteShortcuts(Boolean useCopyPasteShortcuts) throws IllegalStateException
    Whether to enable keyboard shortcuts to `copy` and `paste` `editNodes`.

    `useCopyPasteShortcuts` may only be set on the root `editNode` within any one `editNodeTree`.

    Parameters:
      `useCopyPasteShortcuts` - New useCopyPasteShortcuts value. Default value is null
    Returns:
      `EditProxy` instance, for chaining setter calls
