Cause

The ability to copy, cut and paste a Structure diagram / IBD is determined according to the property
General::Graphics::StructureDiagramContext value.

The options are grayed out because the value of this property is set to ClassOwner.

Resolving The Problem

Set the value of the property General::Graphics::StructureDiagramContext as Default to enable the copy and reset (Un-override) the existing value.


Note: The InternalBlockDiagram has "ClassOwner" as the default value for this property.
