SET PICTURE TO PASTEBOARD clears the pasteboard and puts a copy of the picture passed in picture into it.
Note: In the case of copy/paste operations, the pasteboard is equivalent to the Clipboard
The picture is transported in its native format (jpeg, tif, png, etc.).
After you have put a picture into the pasteboard, you can retrieve it using the GET PICTURE FROM PASTEBOARD command or for example GET PASTEBOARD DATA("com.4d.private.picture.gif";...).
Using a floating window, you display a form that contains the array asEmployeeName, which lists the names of the employees from an [Employees] table. Each time you click on a name, you want to copy the employee's picture to the pasteboard. In the object method for the array, you write:
If(asEmployeeName#0)
QUERY([Employees];[Employees]Last name=asEmployeeName{asEmployeeName})
If(Picture size([Employees]Photo)>0)
SET PICTURE TO PASTEBOARD([Employees]Photo) ` Copy the employee's photo
Else
CLEAR PASTEBOARD ` No photo or no record found
End if
End ifIf a copy of the picture is correctly put into the pasteboard, the OK variable is set to 1.
If there is not enough memory to paste the picture into the pasteboard, the OK variable is set to 0, but no error is generated.
