application.getClipboardString();

Is it possible to retrieve a screenshot, that is on the Clipboard?
(made on XP with the button: PrintScreen)

application.getClipboardString() does not do the job.

I can paste it in column(MEDIA), but than I have raw data, that is much to big, over an internet-line. I want convert the image first to JPG and than put it in a blob. possible?

Just from the top of my head, you could try to use:

var jpg_image = application.createJPGImage(clipboard_data,-1,-1)

It should work.

yes, but how do I get the clipboard_data?

Maybe you could try to paste it in a global of type media, that way it should’t create network traffic cause it remains in the local client.

Yes, but I want it to do by method, if possible.

not manually pasting.

I was sure there was a “paste” function somewhere but I can’t find it right now… maybe I’m just confusing with Filemaker… I have to stop using that thing!

Nicola, FM is not a thing. It is a virus. The best thing to do is burn it out of your system :)

I agree Marcel but as long as that “virus” keeps bringing money in I have to live with it… :cry:
But the switching process is keeping a good pace, only a few customers are still infected :D

Hmm, sounds like a doctor. But hey doesn’t the medical industry say it is beter to keep peoply healthy instead of having to cure.

In Servoy words: You are on the right track my friend. Convert your clients to Servoy :)

but, alle gekheid op een stokkie,

it’s not possible yet, to retrieve an image, from the clipboard?
