How do I copy DWG drawing in to a new part

Hello All,
I have imported a DWG drawing of an outline.
I would now like to use the DWG outline as a new part sketch
Copy to Clipboard from the tab is not listed, and I cannot find any other way to copy a drawing.
Any suggestions thanks

Import the DWG drawing into your Onshape document, you should see a tab for it appear. In a Part Studio start a new sketch. In the sketch toolbar there is an icon for inserting images/dwg/dxf files. Select the DWG from the selection menu: https://cad.onshape.com/help/index.htm#insertdwgordxf.htm?TocPath=Part%20Studios|Sketch%20Tools|_____295
