The CopyToClipboardMetafile doesn't work on FMX
Test project attached.
Comment 1 Luciano Chieco 2016-08-19 10:01:32 EDT 
Same bug happens to methods SaveToMetafile and SaveToMetafileEnh.
Comment 2 Joachim Magera 2022-05-31 11:41:34 EDT 
Both methods are still not working despite latest bugfix #2430
Comment 3 yeray alonso 2022-09-23 06:48:53 EDT 
Just corrected CopyToClipboardMetafile to use TeeCreateMetafile internally.

Note that TeeCreateMetafile doesn't use a TMetafile but a TBitmap, which also affects SaveToMetafile and SaveToMetafileEnh.
See #2430 and #2534 for a related explanation:

Can't use IFMXClipboardService in XE2, so I had to skip that and CopyToClipboardMetafile will do nothing in XE2.

As explained above, from XE3, CopyToClipboardMetafile should return a TBitmap.
