Copy-paste using menu #499

We used to have Copy and Paste menu items, which I had to hide in #463 because we've moved to Clipboard API and it's tricky to implement these buttons with it.

But might be possible, at least in some browsers and maybe with a user consent popup or something. Need to research this and do what we can.

I think Figma allows copying cross project and uses the menu, try

Tested and it's strange:

  1. It didn't allow me to copy from one tab to the other at all (via menu or keyboard)
  2. When I tried to pate using keyboard it showed me this popup
  3. Inside one tab copying via menu works there

If you think this is important I can spend time on research and implementation now

so they can't do it even with native shortcuts? I thought the problem is only there when you want to trigger copy/paste using custom menu

rpominov commented 1 year ago

I don't know why it doesn't work in Figma even with keyboard

Basically all this very confusing, and I think will take like a day to figure out what is possible and do it. And I don't think these buttons in global menu add much value to the user, so to me this seem like high effort low impact task.

Yeah, lets keep this issue for later, after beta
