Insert clipboard image

Post by titeuf »

When inserting a file image into a document, I know I can specify the size you want by dragging the mouse.
However, when I insert an image on the clipboard, I have to paste it first and then adjust the image size.
When I put a clipboard image, is there any way I can size it with a mouse drag or paste it to a predetermined size?

Thanks in advance

Hello titeuf,

As mentioned in the linked reply, it is currently impossible.

Best regards,

Hello all,

it's great to hear that this feature request has been accepted and work on it is already about to begin.

I'd like to note that when inserting an image from the clipboard, the DPI of the image, if included in the clipboard, already seems to be taken into account, both when the image is inserted as a comment object, i.e., a stamp, or when it is inserted as a content object. This is already excellent.

Now that additional work on this underway, I think the closely related feature request below could also be taken into account:

Drag and Drop Image from File Explorer
