Option to automatically copy to clipboard?

[orschiro]

Dear @OttoAllmendinger,

Would you consider an option in the settings to always automatically copy the image to clipboard?

[OttoAllmendinger]

It already exists, the setting is called "Default Clipboard Content"

[orschiro]

Got you!

Thanks. :-)

Wasn't obvious to me. Maybe call it "Automatically copy to clipboard"?

[OttoAllmendinger]

The problem there is that the auto-copy url function for imgur will override this (as it currently does). The dropdown should contain the options "default", "image data" and "imgur URL". It is actually a bug that it is not like that at the moment.

But I agree the naming is suboptimal ;)

[orschiro]

Haha, I see.

Maybe say:

Default Clipboard Content: Image data

And then below a sentence that says:

"Select Image Data to automatically copy screenshots to clipboard"

[orschiro]

Hence no changes to the text for now?

[OttoAllmendinger]

Not for now, and the confusing text is a separate issue.

Your suggestion goes in the right direction but is a bit to verbose.

Maybe it should say not "Default Clipboard Content" but instead

Auto-copy to clipboard: "Nothing"/"Image Data"/"Imgur Link"

[orschiro]

Auto-copy to clipboard: "Nothing"/"Image Data"/"Imgur Link"

Nice, like this one!

Can we implement that?

[OttoAllmendinger]

Yes, #50

Downside is that translations need to updated

Can help with that!

It's this folder, correct?

[OttoAllmendinger]

Cool!

Yes, it is that folder but I will have to update somefiles before you can change them. I will do it later today :)

[orschiro]

Nice! Let me know when I can start. :-)
