IDEA: Copy picture to clipboard
« on: January 17, 2022, 03:01 PM »
Often I want to copy an image to the clipboard, that I can insert it into Outlook (or other programms).
But when I use
Code
strg + c
then I get the image as attachment and not as Image in my text.

The only sollution for me, so far, is that I open the image with the image editor from screenpresso (my screenshot tool) and there is a function "copy to clipboard" and then it works.

I would like to have another "function" in my windows context menu, beneath: cut, copy, paste. Maybe copy to clipboard or so.
It would be great if it would be that simple like "Enfolder from publicdomain", to add and remove that function from the windows context menu.

Hi Pareidol, this is a well-thought tweak for Enfolder's way, I'm in! :up:

[EDIT] Placeholder repo @ https://github.com/publicdomain/copy-contents-menu

Stay tuned.

Hello! This has been superseded by "Copy contents menu", so we can add support for file formats as requested by fellow members.

Focus being images, text files and directory contents for a start :)

New repo @ https://github.com/publicdomain/copy-contents-menu
