Description:
This should be a fairly simple task, however, is presently broken:

In the documentation section 7.1:
"The cut and copy options are useful for copying tables between different schemata and Copy SQL to Clipboard copies the CREATE TABLE statement to the clipboard."

Currently this does not copy the SQL CREATE TABLE to the clipboard.

How to repeat:
1. Create a new diagram
2. Add a new table
3. Right click on the table and select "Copy SQL to Clipboard"
4. Clipboard remains empty.

OR 

1. Create a new diagram
2. Add a new table
3. Go back to the MySQL Model
4. Right click on the table and select "Copy SQL to Clipboard"
5. Clipboard remains empty

Suggested fix:
This would copy the CREATE TABLE statement into the clipboard (forward engineer the SQL CREATE).

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing bug report, bug #37736, already describes this very problem. Even if you feel that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely to be the same. Because of this, we hope you add your comments to the original bug instead.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.
