Hi!
I did a very simple experimental implementation to paste PDFs directly into the LyX buffer. On Mac nearly every application provides PDF data in the clipboard and hence you can paste from any graphical application with this, even in perfect vector quality.

Looks good but couldn't you generalize the Clipboard code to any kind of supported graphics format?

Sure. It's only a proof of concept that it's doable with not too many changes.

Good!

Is there a way to get the mime types of supported graphic formats?

If you mean for On-screen visualisation, GuiImage might have something like that. But even if not supported, we could still add an external material or something.



One problem is the broken code to embed files into a lyx bundle. Is this supposed to work already? I can create bundled lyx files. But no files are embedded, only the content.lyx itself.

This feature is still not finished I am afraid.

I wonder whether it would make sense to ask for a filename then instead if embedded files are not enabled.

I wouldn't mind if we do that in any case personally. Maybe a dialog that will propose to either embed the drop object or to copy the content in a user specified file.
