New option for after making a selection
« on: May 21, 2010, 04:56 AM »
Hi Mouser,

I find myself in need of a new option after making a selection in an existing image.  Can you please add an option to copy the current selection to the clipboard?

At the moment I make the selection, click File --> Create New File From Region, then click on the new image, select it and copy it to the clipboard.

I have taken a large number of screenshots that I need to this on and it would be faster to just copy the selection to clipboard.  In case you are wondering I don't want to 'destroy' the original images.

Thanks

mouser

ctrl+c should do it (or Edit-> Copy object/image to clipboard); this works on whatever you have selected or the entire image if nothing is selected.

I feel stupid now for such an obvious method  :-[

Thanks for that!
