Description davidblunkett 2021-05-17 16:35:22 UTC
It would be nice to copy and image from any view to the clipboard. Gwenview just offers "copy to" as in file copy but I want to browse and copy to an email or some other app and drag and drop isn't always practical.

It already has this! Edit menu > Copy. :)
Comment 2 davidblunkett 2021-05-19 07:53:19 UTC
Thanks - I'd missed that (I don't know how)

In that case can the feature request be to add this to the right-click menu which current only shows "copy to"!

Fair enough!

Add "Copy" items to context menus

This lets the user copy an image to the clipboard directly from the
context menu, without having to use the menubar or keyboard shortcut.
