0000961: not able to take tree from clipboard to ppt or word except in form of a photo file.
Report bugs or other issues regarding the MEGA software
I have only started to use MEGA X for phylogenetic tree construction. I copied the tree from MEGA onto the clipboard and repeatedly found that it had been converted to some sort of photo image which could not be edited. I wanted to further edit the tree branch etc information but could not figure out a way to do so without converting the photo somehow to another format using external software. I previously used MEGA 6.06 and had no trouble moving the tree from the clipboard into PPT or WORD for further editing. I will keep playing with MEGA X and wondered if this is due to version of underlying operating system etc (which my employer will not change).
Tried to place tree on clipboard to both PPT and WORD repeatedly. Any suggestions you can give will be most appreciated
attached a pptx tree which could not be edited....
No tags attached.

Hi Kathy,

I am writing in response to your question regarding the MEGAX software. The tree image format which is copied to the clipboard has changed in MEGAX in order to create a cross-platform application that runs on systems other than Windows. However, the most current release (version 10.0.5) of MEGAX has an optimized PDF export as well as an SVG export option which may be useful for you.
