GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 624396
Cannot copy screenshot into Gimp using Windows XP service pack 3
Last modified: 2010-07-15 07:39:05 UTC
I print screen off of another program. 1) I then try to use edit--> paste as --> new image. I get a popup box that says there is nothing on the clipboard to paste. 2) I then create a new, blank drawing with a white background. I then try to use edit --> paste as --> new layer. I get a popup box that says there is nothing on the clipboard to paste. I am able to print screen, and then paste the image into an Outlook email, so i know that the function works outside of Gimp. I did not have this issue with 2.6.8
