Pasting from Clipboard

Post by gamja »

Hello!
Does anyone know how to paste something from Clipboard?
I like taking screenshots of other applications (for example a screenshot of a 3D model I made in Blender)
and would like to quickly paste it into a layer in TV Paint without having to save and import the file.

Is there a quick way to do so? If not it would be awesome to implement such a feature.

Look at the Edit Menu>Clipboard options:
- Get Brush from Clipboard - will give you a brush made from the clipboard image which can then be stamped on any frame/layer you choose.
- New Layer from Clipboard - will insert clipboard contents to a new layer (first frame) above the current layer.

Amazing! Thanks a lot!!!
Where can I save the brushes and find other custom brushes?
Also: How can I just cut out something with the lasso tool and paste it to another layer at the same spot?

Find custom brushes in the Contents Sharing forum. https://www.tvpaint.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=11

Save your own custom brushes in the Bin . (the tab next to Options in the Tool Panel -- click on Bin tab, then click inside the bin to save your current brush there.)
You can also copy a custom brush into a blank Custom Panel (Grab Current Tool) to make your own set of custom brushes .
