is there a way to copy an image from a media field to the clipboard vs. paste an image from the clipboard to a media field by a programmed method?
I don’t think so…
How shall I tell that the customer? I guess thats a basic feature. Or do I miss something?
Is there a workaround? A plug in or something else?
I never thought of scripting as a basic requirement.
I guess it could become a feature of the mediamanager or image bean.
What is it that you exactly need/want to do and have a look at Servoy Components – Plugins, Beans, Web Components, Angular Services & Servoy Developer Consulting.
I don’t really understand the problem. If you have an image in your clipboard, why would the inserting of that copied image have to be scriptable? I don’t really see the user interface. Is the button called “Click here if you have copied the image to paste”? Can’t the user simply paste the image himself?
We would like to use a popup menu for image functions. The popup appears, if the user clicks on the image field. This way, we can take a better control what the user is pasting in, and can resize the image, if it would be to large, for examble.
Got it. Couldn’t you use a button that you place on top of the image field and let your popup appear there?
I think there is a way in Java to do this. So you could beg Marcel for implementing this…
I spoke to Johan a while ago, and he was planning to enhance the MEDIA-field component. (like capturing the filename, size, etc… by method) so we can control it a bit more
So I think it’s on the wishlist.
