Will you be giving the option to copy and paste with your mouse like with other products. The Ctrl+v requirement is not user friendly.

Hi Angelina


Thanks for your post. Our development team is currently working on improvements in for right-click copy/paste. It's hard to say when we can expect that functionality but I want to assure you that it's on the right people's radar.


Just a quick point I want to make sure to investigate. This only applies if you're using Chrome but when you see the popup message to use keyboard shortcuts do you also see the link to install the Lucidchart Chrome App? If you wouldn't mind could you install that and let me know if you're able to right-click paste after installation?


I need special permission to download apps so that's not an option currently.


No problem at all thanks for following up.


Let us know if you have anymore questions and we're happy to help.

Not able to copy and paste with keyboard or mouse.  I can duplicate it and then have to delete it.
