Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
Just wanted to note that previously in the debug mode Portrait Editor built in the game, you used to be able to put two character DNA strings in the Children Portrait Views and it would let you copy the DNA string of children it had generated. I found this a really cool feature and way to choose what my character's kids looked like, while also having the same DNA as the parents. It seems to have gone in the later updates. I can see the generated children, but can't seem to copy their DNA string :(

I'm aware this is rather niche, but would like to know if this is a bug on my end or was taken out somehow in the update.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Written above ^

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?

You can find this feature if you have Ethnicities and Portraits Expanded mod on. It's in steamapps\workshop\content\1158310\2507209632\gui\portrait_editor_window (could be different, because this is steam version). You can simply copy-paste it into a new custom mod and run it, if you open up PE it'll show.
