My problem went away ...

After restarting TeXmacs, selected drawings can be cut/pasted or deleted: I can select the drawing with the mouse, or with shift-arrow, and do the desired operation.

Sorry about the false alarm. I am an infrequent user of TeXmacs, and thus not always sure what is the expected behavior.

Thanks for all the help,

Mirko

To be more precise : the copy/paste features works well up to a point (difficult to understand or reproduce this behavior) and after that it no longer works... 

Restarting the application, solve the problem.

Hi, 

I can confirm that, for un unknown reason (difficult to localize...) in Windows the copy/paste features no longer work.

What happens if you select some text and the drawing together and try to copy and paste? Do the text get copied but not the graphics or neither?

I should have mentioned, this is on Windows 10, TeXmacs 1.99.11 SVN version 12138. To re-iterate, I tried doing this using the menu commands as well.

When I select the drawing, it is highlighted in. I attach a screenshot of the selected portion of the buffer.

It sound strange. Normally you should be able to copy/past a diagram environment. Note that this has to be done like other text elements, i.e. by selecting the portion with the cursor while in text mode and not selecting the graphical elements in the graphics mode.
