QR-Codes - scope and limitations

2011-01-18 Thread mse
Hello all,

OK, stupid question: 
When I had The Bat to create a QR-Code for me, what can I do with it? Is 
there a possibility to save the pattern, to print or to send it to 
clipboard or to attach it to a message? 

At the moment there only seems to be the QR-Code-window with the pattern, 
but no menus, buttons or context menu ...
What comes after the Code-Generation?

Thanks and best regards,
mse

Make  a  screendump  to  the  clipboard, start your favourite graphics
program,  and crop the QR-code, now you can save it. There should have
been a more sensible way to do that.

Yep

agree, WR is generated, but handling is very limited, image can not be
copied to clipboard, printed or saved to file, current implementation is
very limited.

Yes, sure... I mean... Seriously??? I hope not...

 There should have
 been a more sensible way to do that.

There _definitely_ should be a better way.

OK, that makes sense. A QR-code as another way to transfer for example an 
address to your mobile phone. Thinking of that, makes this quite a fancy 
feature. 

Best regards,
mse

That's what I meant. I just haven't thought of that purpose until Roelof 
mentioned it. It sounds great, I will try that!

That might be but I think you should be able to right click on a URL and have
that generated. Often, I cannot even get the URL think to work.

Use with my Android phone.
