Simplest way to copy a graphic from the webviewer?

[carstenlevin]

Having a Web Viewer with a static or calulated url displaying just a graphic (.jpg, .gif etc), like this (check this) ().

What is the simplest way to make a script that does a copy (to clipboard or otherwise), thereby making pasting into a container field possible?

*The doonesbury graphic is of course just an example.

There is a way but NOT cross platform.

Win accepts an URL into che search for a picture of a container field.

Mac accepts simpler a copy and past from a WV to a container ( drag and drop ).

Hej Carsten!

There does not seem to be a way to extract images from the WebViewer, only text.

However, you could extract the image references and pass them to the CNS Image plugin which allows you to download images through URLs.
