copy figure to clipboard missing

The option to "copy figure" (to clipboard) is missing from the Edit menu of a figure. How do I obtain this feature? Thank you.

Here is the results of the "ver" command:

This can be done with export_fig from Matlab Central: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/23629-export_fig

export_fig('-clipboard');
