Re: Pasteboard and NSImage and Finder

[Rob Petrovec]

Nope.  Pasteboard does not support ‘promised' data like drags do.  Sorry.  You 
could write them to a temporary folder (e.g. NSTemporaryDirectory()) and then 
stuff the URLs on the pasteboard.

That thought crossed my mind. I don’t want to write the file to disk, just have 
a NSFile object in memory, is that possible ?

You need to put files on the pasteboard.  Finder only plays with files, not raw 
image data.

Pasteboard and NSImage and Finder

[Daniel Santos]

Hello all,

I am pasting an array of NSImage to the general pasteboard. (using pasteboard 
.writeObjects())
I would like to be able to paste the images onto Finder. What do I need to do ?

Thanks in advance
