fictionalbeing Posted May 12, 2023 Posted May 12, 2023 After taking a snapshot in Foxit PDF Reader, the clipboard content does not paste into Photo or Designer. Nor does it show when "Create from Clipboard" is used. It creates a layer, but the layer is empty. The snapshot appears in other software. If you copy the original snapshot in other software and then paste into Photo, it appears. Quote
Dan C Posted May 14, 2023 Posted May 14, 2023 Hi fictionalbeing, It sounds like Foxit PDF reader is copying to the clipboard in a format incompatible with our software. Lee Quote
fictionalbeing Posted May 14, 2023 Author Posted May 14, 2023 Understood, but it copy/pastes into Photoshop and other software? See the results of a Create from Clipboard in Affinity 2, 2.04. Quote

According to Free Clipboard Viewer one of the formats Foxit PDF Reader puts in the clipboard is Bitmap, or Bitmap DIB, or Bitmap DIBV5: But it shows up in Photo 2 (Beta) as a transparent image with a standard Paste (Ctrl+V). Paste Special shows Device Independent Bitmap DIB and Device Independent Bitmap DIBV5, but both also show up as transparent image layers. fictionalbeing 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Remi Turcotte Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 I see the same issue with a snapshot freeware i've been using reliably forever (prtscr) Worked flawlessly for all affinity photo 1.x version It pastes... nothing (on initial V2 or newer v2.1.0) :( Solved the issue by uninstalling prtscr and opting for greenshot screen capture freeware.

tomi.cseh Posted August 21, 2024 Posted August 21, 2024 I have the same problem. What could be the solution? Quote
Komatös Posted August 21, 2024 Posted August 21, 2024 Hello @tomi.cseh and welcome to the forums. If you are using Windows 10/11, you can use Windows' own snipping tool. To do this, press Windows key + shift + S.
