JMP 19: Can't copy/paste image into Microsoft Teams anymore

TheDude — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 20:06:14 GMT

Apparently JMP 19 removed the "Copy as Graphic" and "Copy Special" options from the Edit menu (that's what AI tells me).

So now, we can't paste a graph as image into Teams without saving as an image first, which is extremely annoying.

Thanks a lot, SAS.

I know this is likely M$'s fault, but why remove those options? How about

JMP 19.0.3.

~~Did you try to activate "JPEG" in the Preferences/Windows Specific?~~
~~This option seems to be needed when pasting into Teams.~~
edit: not anymore.

I usually right click on the graph and select "Copy Graph" to get an image of the graph. It pastes into Teams okay.

~~I guess because JPEG is already activated on your system.~~

I thought it must be, too, but it isn't.

First of all, thanks to the people who replied.

Now, I have no option "Copy Graph" when I right-click on a "blue" graph. In my "Windows Specific" preferences, the only one not checked was "JPEG" (because I thought PNG is better, not lossy). So I turned that on. But no change, still no "Copy Graph" shows up. I even restarted JMP. Still no such option.

Then I realized that @mmarchandFSLR right-clicked just on the graph area. But what I want, of course, is to use the standard way of copy/pasting graphs in JMP, that is, selection with the "fat cross" (selection tool), because that allows me to easily select which areas to copy.

So still no solution.

SAS, please bring back "copy as graph" in the Edit menu!!!

I see what you're saying now. If you use the selection tool to select the graph and text from the graph, like the title, pasting into Teams gives you the text without the graphics. Do we need a Wish List item to bring back the option?

Right click on the outline box grey triangle and choose "Edit > Copy Picture".

Wow, this really works. I would never have found it in a million years. Thank you.

I think the AI response may have been mistaken here. To my recollection, JMP has never had Edit ▸ Copy as Graphic or Copy Special menu items.

It may have been trying to point you toward the right‑click menu on the outline node, which is what @MathStatChem described above.
