Bug ID: 442784
Summary: feature request: Copy Image from Clipboard, also drag
and drop external image into Spectacle
Product: Spectacle
Version: 21.08.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: m...@baloneygeek.com
Reporter: edmund.laugas...@protonmail.ch
CC: k...@david-redondo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Feature request: Copy Image from Clipboard, also drag and drop external image
into Spectacle.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. create screenshot
2. export it to GIMP for cropping
3. try to import cropped image back via copying it to clipboard and then paste
from clipboard into Spectacle
OR
... just try to drag and drop image from some file manager, desktop, etc into
Spectacle.
This might happen also when trying to import an image created, edited in
another program and would like to give tweaking using Spectacle, as it has
great tools in it.
Could be also useful to allow drag and drop image onto Spectacle's window in
order to import it for further processing.
OBSERVED RESULT
Currently not possible either drag and drop image from file manager (also from
desktop) or import image from clipboard.
EXPECTED RESULT
Will be possible to import image from clipboard. E.g. currently there is a
button "Copy Image to Clipboard" -> would propose to choose between two
options:
* change it "Copy Image" and there could be two choices with appropriate
sub-choices: 1. copy from clipboard 2. copy to clipboard
* add new button "Copy Image from Clipboard" with appropriate sub-choices
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: EndeavourOS (rolling release)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.86.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Example app: Shutter (https://shutter-project.org/)
In that FLOSS app importing image from clipboard is already implemented, could
be copied as it is also free software.
