Copy images in Text boxes
Merged
Often if there is an issue with a feature I will add a screen shot that I've grabbed from the dev region to show the developer what to change. I save the image to clipboard and then copy to the email body. It's a lot quicker than adding a file. I'd like to be able to see this capability in the text box as opposed to having to manually add a file. It adds some operational efficiencies and keeps things in one place as part of the to-do.
Can we re-verify this feature? I don't believe it exists so needs to be move back from shipped. We're looking for copy/paste capabilities directly into the text box the same way other tools work. I don't want to have to save what I have on a clipboard and then attach...
ps i did not see, so i had created an idea already ie
here here, strange its not in the interface as per what ron is doing. not sure you can call this shipped.
@Ron - any updates? I would've expected others to want this behavior... it's a unnecessary click and alot of other web-apps take care of it automatically.
@Ron - any update. I don't think the status reflected here is correct?
Thanks for the quick response Ron.
It’s a graphic that I screen-shot externally so it’s just sitting in the clipboard. JIRA supports this so if you have access to it; just grab a screenshot and then CTRL/V into it. That’s the experience I was hoping for.
Thanks - Steve
Ah I see. Just as a last clarification - is this a graphic which you had copied in Aha!, or from elsewhere?
Thanks Ron. Unfortunately not. To re-state; I have a graphic already copied and in the clipboard. I want to simply CTRL/V into the textbox (in this example the Cancel Event button is the graphic). The textbox doesn’t display it.

If you click on the image (so that it is selected), you should be able to click CTRL/C and then CTRL/V into the same of a different text box to paste it. Does this work for you?
Thanks for the response. Basically I'm looking to copy/paste using CTRL/V into the text box. This works in other apps, so I don't have to worry about saving things to file-systems and then uploading. See the screen shot.
By the way this works in JIRA. Can you follow a similar model?
