The copy/paste of a selected part of a graph is inconvenient to use because
- the copy usually overlaps with the original graph
- the original selection remains active after the paste action. 
Thus, dragging the copy to a new location is impossible. Dragging the
individual
elements of the copy is cumbersome and annoying. 

Suggestion: let the copy be selected, so it can be dragged at once (similarly
as
Powerpoint works when copying items).
