Re: [PEDA] Clipboard to copy from PCB to other Windows apps
Hit 'Print Screen' to copy the whole screen into window's clipboard [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 12/14/2001 08:19:57 AM Please respond to Protel EDA Forum [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Protel EDA Forum [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc:(bcc: Clive Broome/sdc) Subject: [PEDA] Clipboard to copy from PCB to other Windows apps I'm trying to grab a clip from a PCB file to copy to another app (PowerPoint, although I can get there via any of a hundred other apps). I can't get the copy operation to work such that I can then paste. I recall there being a trick to it; seems like I've done it before, but I can't remember how. Any hints?

Re: [PEDA] Clipboard to copy from PCB to other Windows apps
Steve, You can export the print preview parts out to a windows metafile, but for small snips of pcb this is a real lengthy process. You're better to use a utility (shareware) called Snag-it . This is a great little utility and very easy to use, you can select portions of the screen or the whole screen and save in multiple different formats. Try it, let me know how it goes.
