How to copy HTML to clipboard?

Hi,
I would like to be able to copy HTML (text + HTML tags) to the system clipboard. The copy method in the JTextPane only copy the text part to the clipboard.
Anybody gets the idea? Thanks a lot.

You will have to implement your own Transferable class and also have your own class extending DataFlavor.

How to copy string to clipboard w/o keystroke?

I want to copy short strings into another program.
Currently I write to a String Indicator, highlight with the mouse, then copy.
Is there a way to write the string directly to the OS's clipboard?

How to copy a JS variable to the clipboard

I have a script that determines the distance between two guides.
I would like that variable to be copied to the clipboard so that a user can enter it into the control panel if one wishes.
The copy() function will only copy something that is selected in the ID file itself.
Any hints on how to start?
Thanks,
Tom

Hello,
I took up try67's suggestion because I cannot find any property that will copy to the clipboard.
The following works fine...for one number! A five digit number with a decimal (or even just two digits) overflows the text box. Text that overflows cannot be selected.
I think that the easiest solution is to make the pointSize of the text really small but for the life of me I cannot decipher how to do that.
Any suggestions on adding one or two lines to solve this? I figure the best place to put this property is in the frameProps property record.
Tom
var a = 7;
numToCopy(a);
function numToCopy(numToCopy){
var frameProps = {contents:numToCopy.toString()}
var myTextFrame = app.activeDocument.textFrames.add(frameProps);
myTextFrame.words.everyItem().select();
app.copy();
myTextFrame.select();
myTextFrame.remove();
}//end function numToCopy

How do I retrieve/view content that I've copied to the clipboard at various times over the course of the evening ??

Is it possible to look at different content I've copied to the clipboard at several times over the course of an hour or two. Note: I have NOT turned off my browser or restarted my computer.

Nope, the Windows clipboard only save one item at a time. Copy something and the previous "copy" is gone. You would need a Windows program that saves multiple clipboard entries.

Append copyright text to copied text in clipboard

Is it possible in RH6 to append a copyright string to the
text that a user has just copied to the clipboard, so that when
they paste it, they get the text they copied, plus the copyright
string? The old WinHelp application that I am converting to HTML
help had this feature - I believe the old project was authored in
RoboHelp, but have no idea on how they included the copyright
string. I haven't found anything in the help that references
functionality like this, nor have I found anything online.

Hi,
Make use of READ_TEXT and SAVE_TEXT FM to get the additional text and add to the existing text.

I can not find out how to copy and paste firefox does not allow it

Firefox does not allow me to highlight html documents when on line and then copy and paste
When I left click to highlight it just moves a ghost copy of the whole document away from where you begin.

How to Copy a value of a String to the RAM memory?

Hi there,
I was wondering how to copy a String into the ram memory (consider you're doing right click on THIS word and choose 'Copy'; the String's Value will be to the ram memory for a later Paste).
In my application, a user has a table and he right click on it and choose Copy. I get the value of the item (Obj) but face dificulties to add it to RAM.
my code looks like this:
          if (obj!=null) //inside I have the value (say: 12345 --< Obj.toString)
               Action copyAction = TransferHandler.getCopyAction();
               int id = ActionEvent.ACTION_PERFORMED;
               String name = (String) copyAction.getValue(Action.NAME);
               long l = EventQueue.getMostRecentEventTime();
               copyAction.actionPerformed(new ActionEvent(XXXXXXX, id, name, l ,0));
                        ///what comes in the XXXXXXX
          }I tried, instead of the XXXXXXX, to put Obj or Obj.toString but...nothing.
Anyone?

Thanks,
should implement ClipboardOwner
and do this:
              StringSelection stringSelection = new StringSelection( obj.toString() );
              Clipboard clipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
              clipboard.setContents( stringSelection, this );
@Override
     public void lostOwnership(Clipboard clipboard, Transferable contents)
          //do nothing!
     }

Signed Applet JTextField copy to system clipboard

Hi all,
We have a signed and deployed our JAR file that contains our applet following the instructions listed at:
http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.3/docs/rsa_signing.html
We used Thwate as our CA. All seemed good.
However any JTextFields that are in our applet cannot access the system clip board. Looking at the source for JTextComponent it should have access to the system clipboard if the securitymanager allows it.
The strange thing is that if I call getToolkit().getSystemClipboard() from our applets I can access the clipboard and copy to the system clipboard. Even the code in JTextComponent that checks for system clipboard access (canAccessSystemClipboard) works fine when pasted into the applet.
Why cant a JTextField copy to the clipboard? Has anyone else come across this?

Juste an idea.... Is your JTextField belonging to the javax.swing.... packages ?
Or did you compile using some com.ms , ibm.... sun... package ? This could lead to some different implementations.

More DataFlavors copied to the clipboard/used in D&D in one step

Hallo,
For my GUI app. I would like to enable different types of information to copied to the clipboard.
e.g. object type 1 - Document ID ( actual row's document ID from JTable ) - to copy document type
object type 2 - string representation ( columns texts from JTable ) - to copy to excel
I would like to keep them general, with different possible combinations
among them ( up to 10 different object types ), according to some specs.
Has anybody idea, if it is possible ? ( prefarably with 1.4 D&D interface ).
Data are packed in createTransferable() call, but it allows just 1 format (?) ...
Maybe I can use some 'envelope' format holding all possible information,
but that idea doesn't looks nice for me :(
Thanks for any hint.
Tibor

Hi !
Thanks for your help. For drag & drop it's fine. System will ask for 'best' format as I expect.
How is it with clipboard ? I had idea to copy table columns as a "text" flavor
( for paste into excel ) and user created flavor "id" with documentId inside.
On paste I would take 'what's better' ( e.g. as a document reference better would be better my "id" flavor,
because that information doesn't need to be in table cells inside ).
Maybe I will have to use 'own' clipboard for these reasons.

Massive copy to system clipboard with vim?

Say I'm editing a program with vim through a terminal (say xterm). Does anyone know how to copy the contents, via left click highlighting, onto the system clipboard (x11) when the content that needs to be copied is physically off the screen? I've tried to arrow up while highlighting but it doesn't work.

toxic, from what I understand from t-dawg's questions is that he wants to emulate what you can do in gvim, but with vim instead.
In gvim, I can click the mouse button; hold; drag downwards and then gvim will start scrolling downwards, whilst highlighting the passing lines. This is how you highlight large amounts of text (greater than what can fit in a single screen at a time) with a mouse.
However, terminals are slightly dumber. Whilst you can highlight areas of text, that's a console function and not something that vim itself is monitoring. Therefore, you can't achieve the same effect with the mouse in vim as you can in gvim.
Of course, vim is perfectly capable of selecting more text than can fit in a single screen. It has a visual mode. Press v and then move down with your cursor keys, et volia - highlighted text.
Now when it comes to shifting this to X11's clipboard, I've never tried (hence the link I gave for possible help). I'm sure it can be done.

Copying Image to clipboard

It is rathewr simple to copy text, however it is not clear how to copy graphics.
Anybody has experience?
Code snippet would be helpful
Thank you.

If you have access to JDK 1.4, you can use java.awt.Robot quite simply with the predefined imageFlavor. Before that, I don't know how to get the system to recognize the Image flavor really...anyone?
Here is an example how with 1.4:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.awt.datatransfer.*;
public class MySystemClipboard extends Frame implements ActionListener,
ClipboardOwner
    private Button myButton;
    private Clipboard myClipboard;
    private PrettyPicture myPicture;
    public MySystemClipboard()
        add(myButton = new Button("Klipp"), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
        add(myPicture = new PrettyPicture(), BorderLayout.CENTER);
        myButton.addActionListener(this);
        myClipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent anEvent)
        try
            ClipImage ci = new ClipImage(new Robot().createScreenCapture(getBounds()));
            myClipboard.setContents(ci, this);
        catch (AWTException ae){}
    public void lostOwnership(Clipboard clipboard, Transferable contents)
    private class ClipImage implements Transferable
        private DataFlavor[] myFlavors;
        private BufferedImage myImage;
        public ClipImage(BufferedImage theImage)
            myFlavors = new DataFlavor[]{DataFlavor.imageFlavor};
            myImage = theImage;
        public Object getTransferData(DataFlavor flavor) throws UnsupportedFlavorException
            if (flavor != DataFlavor.imageFlavor)
                throw new UnsupportedFlavorException(flavor);
            return myImage;
        public DataFlavor[] getTransferDataFlavors()
            return myFlavors;
        public boolean isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor flavor)
            return (flavor == DataFlavor.imageFlavor);
    private class PrettyPicture extends Panel
        public PrettyPicture()
            setBackground(Color.blue);
            add(new Button("Moo"), BorderLayout.NORTH);
            add(new Button("Boo"), BorderLayout.CENTER);
            add(new Button("Roo"), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
    public static void main(String[] args)
        MySystemClipboard cb = new MySystemClipboard();
        cb.setBounds(200,200,200,200);
        cb.setVisible(true);
}This works for me with JDK1.4 in Windows NT, using Word to verify the clipboard contents (pasting in pictures). This does not work in previous versions, since DataFlavor.imageFlavor didn't exist then. I don't know of any equivalent substtitute.
You can easily change the bounds of the picture to catch, as well as the actual contents of it

New to Imac - how do you view the clipboard?

How do I see the clipboard and have it open?

Are you saying your clipboard is not refreshing?
By default the clipboard should refresh every time you copy something. However there are some users that have problems and the clipboard keeps the same data even after copying new text. There is a script you can use to flush clipboard contents.
Enter the following into the Script Editor in Applications/Utilities
tell application "System Events" to set the clipboard to ""
Save as an Application. Put the Script app on your desktop to run.
FWIW, I recently had this problem after assigning shortcuts to Paste and Match Style. I had to do a PRAM reset followed by a Safe Boot to get my clipboard working again.
Reset PRAM
1. Shut down your Mac.
2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
3. Turn on the computer.
4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
6. Release the keys.
Safe boot
* shutdown
* start the Mac and *wait* for the startup chime to sound
* after the sound, press and hold down the shift key
* keep holding and *wait* until the grey  Apple logo appears
* now release the shift key and just wait (it could take a few minutes)
* eventually the login screen appears with the words SAFE BOOT
