TRichView 24.1.3 – Copying and pasting images

This update improves clipboard image support in the Windows version of TRichView.

Previously, the components supported copying and pasting only TMetafile and TBitmap images. Now:

• clipboard copying implemented in graphic classes is supported (most classes copy images in bitmap format);
• image formats named after MIME types (such as “image/gif”) are supported. These formats are not standard, but are used by some applications (for example, Telegram);
• the “PNG” format used by Chrome (and other browsers based on its engine) is also supported.

In RichViewActions, “Paste Special” action allows choosing from graphic formats available in the clipboard.
