LiveCode Forums.

Hi everybody

I am fighting with Livecode to find a way to copy an image from an image object (which is filled by a user action through a popup menu) to the clipboard

Many thanks for your help

A MEGUIRA

Thank you Magice
I have tried it already, may be may pathname is wrong

Kind regards

Hi Jean Marc

I am using Livecode opensource on windows

This code works

lock screen
import snapshot from image "Imagefield"
set the clipboarddata["image"] to the last image
hide last image

I do not understand why copy image "Imagefield" doesn't work for me

All the best

hi ameguira,

I do not understand why copy image "Imagefield" doesn't work for me

I tried also with LiveCode community edition v. 6.0.1-rc-1|Build 1512 and
copy image work fine
I hope someone will clearing this point soon

All the best

Are you trying to use the path name instead of the image object name? If so, that is the problem. If the image is showing, the the path name is correct.
