@u187882 welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Can you explain what you mean by pasting part of a whiteboard? Are you simply CTRL-C, CTRL-V copying and pasting it? If so, you will only get the text as the whiteboard formatting is exclusive to the whiteboard page. 

You have two choices:

1. Take screenshot of the portion of the whiteboard you want pasted in and insert it as a picture on the page.

2. Use the link function to link the whiteboard directly in to the page.

Hope this helps!

Thanks @Andy Gladstone I found the feature works like you describe on  Organize and explore ideas with sticky notes | Confluence Whiteboards' Help Center (intercom.help) (last article)

I will wait for a next feature that allows paste the selected image (not as text)
