Kreo allows you to copy and paste measurements for faster work. If copy and paste doesn’t work, your browser may be blocking clipboard access. Here's how to enable it:

Google Chrome & Microsoft Edge

Option 1.

  1. If you see a clipboard icon in the address bar while using Kreo, click it and allow access.

Option 2.

  1. Open Settings.

  2. Go to Privacy and SecuritySite Settings.

  3. Find takeoff.kreo.net on the list.

  4. Scroll down and click Clipboard.

  5. Make sure clipboard access is Allowed.

Safari (Mac)

Safari restricts clipboard access for security reasons, but you can enable it when working in Kreo:

✅ When Kreo asks to access your clipboard (for example, when copying or pasting), Safari will show a pop-up at the top of the window.

✅ Click Allow.

If the pop-up doesn’t appear:

  1. Make sure you're using the latest version of Safari.

  2. Go to SafariSettingsWebsites.

  3. Scroll down to Pop-up Windows.

  4. For takeoff.kreo.net, set to Allow.

This ensures that clipboard prompts are shown properly.

Mozilla Firefox

By default, Firefox limits clipboard access for security reasons. Kreo can still use your clipboard, but only during direct user actions — for example, when you click Copy or Paste inside the platform.

To ensure clipboard works properly in Kreo:

Allow Advanced Clipboard Features

For more reliable copy and paste, check these settings:

  1. Open Firefox.

  2. Type about:config in the address bar and press Enter.

  3. Click Accept the Risk and Continue.

  4. In the search bar, type:

    • dom.events.asyncClipboard.readText

    • dom.events.asyncClipboard.writeText

  5. Make sure both settings are set to true.

    • Double-click them to change the value if needed.

This enables modern clipboard functionality, which Kreo uses.
