Nope, that's what I tried. Does it work for everyone else? It could just be an intermittent glitch like it was in TS2.


Nah, it doesn't work for me either.  I went in and tried, hadn't done so before.  Sucky.

It didn't work for me in the arrred version or in the official version.  It seems strange.  Wouldn't it make sense for people to want to type up their sims' biographies in a text document and paste them in, or copy a cheat code from a website into the game?  Everything seems to have copy-paste functionality now, but EAxis removes functions, of course.

I wonder if any mod could be made to force it to use the system clipboard.

Oh yeah, another slight annoyance: you can't copy/paste from The Sims 3 to another program and vice versa. I was going to save some hex color values in a text document to match the top and bottom of a bikini, but no luck. That might have been a temporary glitch, though, because I remember that happened on and off in The Sims 2.



Why save the hex? You can just grab the swatch and drop it onto the article of clothing that you want it to match. When an pattern has multiple color options for that one pattern, you can even grab the little colored circle and drop it onto something else.

You'd be able to use an 'alternative' clipboard, and set the copy and paste keys to something different. Can't give any examples of programs, but I have used them in the past. Also not sure if it would work within a Direct X window, but it's certainly worth a shot if copy paste is important. Personally I don't mind - I have an iPhone so I'm used to it. ::)
