Photoshop Online Clipboard Tool

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • Hi! often i need to grab images with transparency from web and edit them within photoshop.
    it's a hassle to save the image on disk and reload again within photoshop. (with jpg i was able to drag'n'drop, but png always was difficult and took some time)

    i've created a little tool that does all the stuff for you -->

    Please login to see this attachment.

    just start it and if you search on the web and found an image, just right click on it and select "copy image path to clipboard". the tool will automatically open it within photoshop.

    hope some of you could benefit from it and save some time like i did ;)

  • Great idea! Pulling PNGs from google image search has always been so annoying.

    A couple of ideas:

    -could you make it minimise to system tray instead of taskbar?
    -could it iterate filenames so that if you copy two images, you don't get the "image.png already exists..." popup in Photoshop?
    -could you make it detect and ignore files that won't work, like SVGs?

    By the way, did you make this in Fusion?

    I don't use Photoshop myself, but the support for dragging and dropping transparent PNG files (and webp files!) is surprisingly fragile across applications. For example, I have no issues with either Opera or Chrome and PhotoLine: it will happily accept dragged PNG and Webp files while retaining transparency from either Opera or Chrome (but fails with Firefox).

    But Krita doesn't like this workflow one bit, and even pops up an error about the clipboard format. Dragging images from Firefox removes the transparency again.

    The only workflow I discovered that always seems to work without fail is to drag the image to the desktop, and then drag into your image editor. This also works with Photoshop. But SVG files fail with this workflow (browser does not allow dragging).

  • Hey, thanks, I'm glad if some of you may could take use of it!

    [MENTION=15682]Volnaiskra[/MENTION] I've added your ideas, pls take a look ;)

    v1.1 --> Please login to see this attachment.

    the app is now running at systemtray - JPG, PNG and SVG should work actually. If a download starts, you will see it now with a bubble infotext above systemtray.

    just click on the systemtray icon to open the app - now you can minimize again or close it.

    This little tool was created of course with fusion 2.5 :)

  • This is now a great little tool! So far it's working flawlessly for me, and definitely removes a lot of friction from the reference image-gathering process. :)

    It's fine as is, but if you're still looking for ways to improve it, I have a few ideas:

    - once you click on the systray icon, there doesn't seem to be a way to minimise to systray again. One way to rectify this would be to add a "minimise to systray" button on the window. Another way would be to make the close button minimise to systray (and add an "exit" item to a right-click context menu on systray to properly close it).

    - a "start with windows" checkbox option would be nice

    - instead of using "save image to background", perhaps the tool could add its own entry in the browser context menu (eg. "clip to Photoshop"). That would make the process more transparent, would help prevent people activating the tool by accident, and would allow users to still use the "copy image address" option without opening Photoshop.

    Anyway, it's very useful already. Thanks!

  • This doesn't seem to be working for me today. It opens up PS, but no image is created. Do you think it's something to do with the new version of Photoshop (21.0.0), or is the problem on my end?
