We've published a new demo: [Copy & Paste](https://www.jointjs.com/demos/copy-paste)

How to clone shapes using ui.Clipboard? How to allow the user to copy text or image and paste it into a diagram as a shape? [That's what today's CodePen is about](https://codepen.io/jointjs/pen/gOzLYgg/77bce14befb72b3bb80eb61ce0dcafd0).

See the Pen [JointJS+: Copy & Paste](https://codepen.io/jointjs/pen/gOzLYgg) by JointJS ([@jointjs](https://codepen.io/jointjs))
