Can the feature "Copy to Clipboard" be scripted in Mechanical ?

This uses an undocumented / unsupported API, so use at your own risk, but it can be done with the following:

import context_menu

context_menu.DoCopyToClipboard(ExtAPI)

Similarly, "Paste from clipboard" can be scripted with:

import context_menu

context_menu.DoPasteFromClipboard(ExtAPI)
