Clipcopy to capture VD entities and then paste in Microsoft apps. like excel and word.

Summary

Previous versions of VD allowed for the clipcopy to capture VD entities and then paste in Microsoft apps. like excel and word. The framework versions do not.

Solution


When ClipCopy command is used in version 6 components then at the clipboard we add 4 items:


1)"System.Drawing.Bitmap"


2)"DeviceIndependentBitmap" to be paste in standard windows applications like Paint,World,Excel etc.


3) "VectorDraw.6" (in vdml memory file stream) to be paste in VectorDraw control as a block


4)"FileDrop" to be paste in a windows file explorer as VDML file


At word and Excel by using the Paste(Special) you can select "DeviceIndependentBitmap" in order to paste an image with the selected entities.
