I do not know how difficult this is, but would be nice to copy and paste office drawing objects as an image directly.

Can you think about this, please. Otherwise superb app also I upvote the default settings instead of popup and create a short key to popup the settings the next time.

Hi, @ritchiehosein Thanks for your feedback, really appreciated.

I noticed that I cannot copy Office Word SmartArt/Objects and paste them as images directly, but when I activated the Windows 10 Clipboard History (using Win + V), the app started to work correctly with Office Objects and was able to paste them as normal images.

Please try this workaround and let me know.
if it doesn't work with you please share with us a screenshot or small gif/video for this flow.

I tried this but it did not work. Office clipboard picking it up. The only way I got it to work was copy it in word paste it back into word as a image then copy it again and then pasteintofile worked.

When I copy the word object it not showing up in windows clipboard for some strange reason text and images showing up but not drawing objects. The drawing objects showing up in office clipboard though. Have no clue as to why did not venture into check anything further.

And when i click pasteintofile even though its not in windows clipboard it coming up empty with no file type being detected.

So after debugging further I realised that group images with drawing objects is what was not being picked up by windows clipboard and also the word file format also played a part cannot be a compatibility document.

So will have to follow the work arounds.

Thank you very much for you help.
