How to obtain a basic copy-paste text in a label from Word (for example), or copy-paste a text fom Yed to word (not a picture of the text, but a text) ?

I think this feature is not yet implemented.

So, feature requested, because it's very usefull creating a family tree.

Text copying is already supported when editing labels! (I.e. select a label, press F2 to start editing, then use CTRL+C/CTRL+V as usual.)

Thank about your fast answer.

Okaaay ! I'd only tried with right click.
But I'm very happy, now I can copy-paste.
Do you think you can add right click ?
Do you mean right-clicking into the text when editing it should open a context menu with entries for cut/copy/paste? If so, enter a corresponding feature request. ;-)
Node > Properties > General > Text. Here, I know now I can use Control V and C, but, yes, a context menu would be amazing.
A lot of people have this "reflex", this "initial reaction".
