I'm hoping someone has done some research into the possibility of being able to paste an OS clipboard image (say from a screen grab) into an SWF file (one that would be running on a web page)?

I know that you can use the context menu using a right-mouse-click in a control to choose to cut, copy, paste, etc. I've also noticed that you can use the windows keyboard shortcuts CTRL-C for Copy and CTRL-V for Paste.
Windows supports native CTRL-Insert (for copy) and SHIFT-Insert (for paste).
However, within Flex, it seems these do not appear to work. Has anyone been able to either allow these keyboard events?

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to Get the print screen image from the keyboard. Say for example I had a image hosting site and wanted a feature where users could paste in an image and simply host it that way. would that be possible?

View 6 RepliesI want to embed a flash to my site, that allows the user to paste an image which is in clipboard, and this images will then be uploaded to the server. Is there a script that can do that? i googled for about an hour now, but didn't find anything that fits my needs.
the best thing would be if you also coul crop your image when its uploaded and then save it.
it's most likely to upload screenshots, so that you don't have to first save it, crop it, and then upload it.
Is it possible to allow users to paste image data into a Website? That is, they have an image in the clipboard and can paste it into an HTML Site? (I would then somehow grab the bytes and store them - persistence isn't the problem here) It needs to be Cross-Browser IE8, FF3.5 and Chrome 4, but I can use browser plugins like Silverlight, Flash or bare JavaScript if possible (I might even use Browser Plugins, although that would be painful to manage and IE would need ActiveX is guess...). Also since it's an internal site, I can add the site to the Local Intranet Zone in IE (not sure if that changes stuff for Firefox and Chrome).
View 2 RepliesI've created a short text (a word) in photoshop with the blending options I prefer and now it's all done I would like to paste it into my flash project. The problem is I can't get the text to be transparent in the flash, I always see the white background which is not very nice since the background on which the text will show is actually a picture.

View 1 RepliesI have an in-house application that is populating several HTML rows with text that needs to be copied. I already have that text being sent to my flash movie as a variable via Javascript. I also have a button that when clicked will copy those formatted lines of text in the method required for pasting into a different, unrelated application. The button method for
Code:
System.setClipboard(myTextField)
works just fine.
However, per "instructions" I need to establish a keyboard shortcut that fires the same "setClipboard" action. Currently, I am using External Reference to apply a javascript key combo capture that attempts to call the function within the Flash movie to set the clipboard. However, placing that setClipboard inside of the function called via javascript doesn't work. The setClipboard action only seems to work when attached to the button.
I know there are restrictions with the newer flash player requiring user interaction with the movie to access the clipboard, but is there any way to simulate the button click or package the setClipboard action in a function that will allow this to work? This is an in-house application so the actual security issues are not as prevalent.
This is what I have in place currently. I know the javascript communication works, as I have been able to send commands such as:

I want to set the clipboard to be a specific string. I've read about Flash's hack and the ability to hijack the clipboard + Adobe fixing this. I just wanted to know if I would have any problems if an end user has a Flash 10 player? What I could do with my solution is to simply pass in a variable via Flashvars + when a button I have on stage is clicked, will copy the Flashvars value to the clipboard:
System.setClipboard(myFlashVarVariable);
I just thought I'd ask anyway - the last thing I would want is something that worked perfectly in my environment that didn't work for all end users!

When a user press print screen button bitmap is put in clipboard. Is it possible somehow to get it from there in flash(or at least in AIR)?
View 3 RepliesI have an unstructured multiline string to parse in Flash (not csv, not xml, just plain text) I want to be able to separate my multiline plain text into lines of text as a starting point. I realize that my regex has no issue if I hand-type my data into the textarea, but issues arise when I paste from external sources.
I wonder, is there any setting on Textarea that I forgot to set so that the newline character is trimed upon my paste?
[Code]...
It turns out that parsing it may not be the problem, but the fact that my data may have been malformed when I paste from clipboard might be the real root cause. Does anyone have any suggestion in how to solve this problem? Should I perhaps make a paste handler to ensure data's integrity?
I have an unstructured multiline string to parse in Flash (not csv, not xml, just plain text)I want to be able to separate my multiline plain text into lines of text as a starting point. But no matter how I tweak my regex and replace algorithm, it won't work for me.
I realize that there is an issue with pasting from Clipboard to Textarea. The newline characters from original content would be lost once they reach Textarea.
It looks like following in text editor, plaint text mode:
var1 hi
var2 hi2
var3 h3
But when I copy it out of Flash after pasting them into it, the data becomes like following
var1 hivar2 hi2var3 h3
This is also the output if I use trace to look at the data in Textarea after pasting.

I think the title tells it all, but just incase, I will clarify. Is it possible to copy part of the stage to the clipboard in order to paste that into an email or word document.
I need this as an option to the user, not during publishing... So basically, a button on stage that copies a specific area/coordinates.
How can I know if the user pasted or pressed Ctrl+V? I found a PASTE event, but I can't figure out to which object i should add a listener too.
