How can I export a Lucidchart image to the clipboard to paste into another application?
I frequently need to copy my diagrams to the clipboard and paste them into a document. The steps I take now are:
Go to File > Export > PNG
Use a screenshot tool to copy from the preview
Is there some simpler way? I feel I should be able to do this without relying on the screenshot tool.

Hey Joseph
Thanks for posting in the Lucid Community! If you are exporting your diagram as a PNG you can then import that file into a document (such as Word or Docs) as an image. You could also check out our add-ons for Google and Microsoft as this would allow to upload your Lucidchart diagram directly into your documents.
Hope this helps--please reach out anytime with more questions! Cheers!
Jumping into this conversation to share an additional tip - Lucidchart and Lucidspark both now support an option to select a portion or all of your diagram, right-click, and choose “Export selection.” From there, you’ll have several options for format - I understand this doesn’t attach it directly to your clipboard, but may be useful in your workflow!
