Where Did the Cut and Paste Functions Go?

[Bystander]

Where have the Control-X, V functions gone? Or, have I lost my mind...wasn't paying attention to administrative notes?

They are still there. Nothing has changed. Perhaps if you got into the preview mode, they appear disabled. Look for red icons at the top of the edit window to indicate preview mode.

Okay, got rid of the red warnings; now what's "it" want? Thank you, by the way for the initial coaching.

When clicking the "[ ]" symbol causes the red icons to turn dark grey, that means they are enabled, including the paste function. I always have to do that when pasting in figures/pictures. Does ctrl-v work for you now to paste in? (BTW, be a little careful because toggling the "[ ]" thing causes the cursor to reset to the top left of the Edit window, so you need to relocate it before trying the ctrl-v paste)

Thanks. I'll try it next time the "need" overtakes me.
