Add ability to copy image to clipboard

Feature Requests - Platform and API
1

In my app I have a button to copy an image (a screenshot of the current window) to the clipboard. It’s done using a c# plugin and is working, but I would like to be able to do that without using a plugin :slight_smile:

  • Today I have the base64 representation of an image. I can create a blob from that, and paste it on the clipboard with the standard (= Chrome) clipboard API, but when requesting the permission to use the clipboard-write permission, I get a request denied
  • So another solution would be to use OW’s placeOnClipboard() API, but that seems to only handle text, which as far as I’ve figured out doesn’t work for me

Impact for me is pretty low, as I have already a solution in place.

Thanks!

Hi, and thanks for the feedback.

We will discuss the matter internally, and we will update you here.
It might take up to a few days.

Thanks.

We added this feature request to our backlog.
We don’t have an ETA, though, and that can take some time to implement and release. Thank you for your patience.
We will update you here once it is ready.

Thanks.

Thanks for the update!

As mentioned, there’s no rush for me as I have a workaround :slight_smile:

Cheers!
