Error copying a figure to clipboard

Dear all,
I would like to copy a matlab figure to my clipboard so I can paste it in Powerpoint as a vector graphic. This is usually very simple, I just choose "metafile" in the cop options. More recently I tried the same thing getting this error message:
Error using print (line 82)
Unable to copy the figure to the clipboard. Increasing the Java Heap Size setting in the MATLAB preferences may
help; otherwise try saving to a file or choose a different clipboard format.
Error in matlab.graphics.internal.copyFigureHelper (line 158)
print(argsToPrint{:});
Error in editmenufcn (line 69)
matlab.graphics.internal.copyFigureHelper(hfig)
Error while evaluating Menu Callback.
I followed the suggestion and increased the Java thingy, up to 4 GB, still same problem. The weird thing is, it's actually a rather simple image of only 4 MB. I'd be happy to upload the .fig file here if possible.
Any hints what the problem might be?
Thanks,
Toby

Hi, I'm facing the same problem in copying the METAFILE figure to Word. I'm using MATLAB 2020b in W10. Is there any solutions or any updates regards this issue?

I also met this problem in MATLAB 2020a.
But the problem is gone when I copy the same figure in MATLAB 2018b.

I also met this problem in MATLAB 2021b.
But the problem is gone when I copy the same figure in MATLAB 2018b. But I want to know how to solve this problem in MATLAB 2021b. Thank you.

You can use the highlighted icon in the topright in the image shown . It automatically shows when your cursor it close or on the title at the top of the image, then you can choose the copy icon. That was how I resolved mine.
