Screenshot directly to Photoshop / no copy paste, is it possible?

Dear all,
I was wondering is it possible to use PrtScreen option in some way that would enable me to capture a series of screenshots that would appear directly on layers, without me having to switch the windows between the program and photoshop. I would like to just press PrtScreen and have the images appear on layers, not have them in clipboard and have to press ctrl v all the time.
That would make my work so much easier.
Do you know any solution to that problem?
I would be very grateful.
Aleksandra

I don't think it can be done just with Photoshop and the clipboard.
If you do a lot of this, a proper capture program is the way to go.
SnagIt has a free trial.

  • Is Copy Paste Pans & Zooms Possible in Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor Slideshow?

    In the Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor, someone wants to create a unique pan and zoom effect for one photo and be able to apply it the the rest of the photos in the Filmstrip without having to do that on an individual photo basis.
    In the Slide Show Editor, Edit Menu/Apply Pan & Zoom to All Slides or Apply Pan & Zoom to Selected Slide(s) does not get the job done. Instead it looks like it just applies the default Photoshop Elements pan and zoom. I have investigated several routes to the goal unsuccesful and have concluded that Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor offers no such copy paste pans & zoom feature.
    I have detailed how to add more than one pan & zoom per slide, how to get the pan & zoom copy/paste job done in Premiere Elements, either doing all the pan & zoom in Premiere Elements or creating the pan & zoom in Photoshop Elements for one slide, using Send to Premiere Elements, Break Apart Adobe Photoshop Elements Slideshow, copy/paste of the transferred pan & zoom. Believe it or not, that does work. I know that there will be skeptics who feel that the pan & zoom timing would be distored, but....This person does not have or want Premiere Elements in the equation. So, I am looking for a way out for her.
    I am posting the question here for someone to confirm my conclusion or offer a way that has escaped me. If someone has found a way, he/she will be fully created for the contribution and thanked.

    Copy and past funtionaliy is not available  in pan & zoom feature. Please do a feature request.

  • Do an export from one program/copy past to Wordpres - possible?

    I have lots of archive blog entries in a Lotus Notes database. It's very tedious doing a manual export/cut and past text/ insert into a new wordpress blog (changing to old date etc). Is this the sort of thing I could automate (or bits of)?

  • Copy/paste images from photoshop to illustrator

    I often edit photos for print publication in photoshop and copy/paste them in to .eps files for resizing and use by our printers.
    I have experienced problems with colours not being accurate/rasterizing after copying and also greyscale becoming lighter/having less contrast.
    Can anyone suggest a solution or send me a link to good web resources explaining why im having these problems?
    Thanks
    Dave

    The graphic is embedded, you loose most all ability to control color. Use file >> place and check the link box to place this as a linked graphic. Then the values you see in phothsop will be the values sent to the output device. Any color management you add on top of this is the only thing that would change the color.
    Also make sure you have file >> document color  mode >> set to CMYK
    With linking your files will be faster and take up less space on disk.

  • Why is copy/paste not working directly?

    Hi,
    I have some problems when I try to copy/paste from Illustrator to PhotoShop. There is an error from Illustrator when I try to do so: " The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. [Parm]".
    What I did so far:
         - Do the updates
         - Run Illustrator with the 64bit version
         - Reset default configuration on most of my settings in Illustrator
    I found a workaround that allow me to do the operation but takes me a lot longer. I copy the part of the image that I want and then I paste it in a new document in Illustrator. From this new document, I do another Copy and then. it let me paste it to my PhotoShop.
    Specs:
    Windows 7 pro 64bit
    HP WorkStation Z230 (F1L56UT)
    Intel Xeon E3-1245V3 @3.4Ghz
    16 Gig
    240 Gig SSD + 1000 Gig
    Thanks in advance for your time!

    I don't know why the problem is happening, but an alternative to try is Cmd+J to duplicate a selection to a new layer.
    You can attach a screenshot of Photoshop when the problem is occurring. It's important that the Layers panel is open in the screenshot. Use Shift+Cmd+3 for a screenshot of the whole screen, which will be dumped on the desktop as a PNG file. Attach the PNG to a forum message by using the little camera button above the message entry field of a reply to this post. Note that attachments won't make it to the forum by email.

  • Is there a way to copy/paste text in Photoshop without keeping formatting?

    Hello,

    Thanks.

    You can use this simple workariound:
    copy the desired text  and paste it in a simple text editor app like notepad (win) or textedit (mac).
    Then copy this unformatted text and paste it in photohop.

  • Copy/Paste in Photoshop CS6

    No matter what I do, I cannot copy/paste in photoshop cs6.
    I'm trying to copy a layer from one tab (project) to another. I've also trying dragging it but it just won't do it.
    I've worked in CS5 and this has never been  problem. What am I doing wrong?

    I jumped form CS2 to CS6, so I had this same problem. I am so used to dragging my layers in, and I didn't want to submit to the "duplicate layer" method.   Followed PECourtejioe's instructions too literally so my layer didn't copy! But then I inadvertantly figured out,  you must bring your pointer BACK DOWN into the screen/canvas and it will copy. DUH! (I was dragging to the tab and holding my pointer there to no avail!) It was then when I accidentally moved my mouse into the screen did I notice a little "+" sign.  Also, other forums make sense when they say, depending on where you point your pointer in the destination canvas, is where your image will land. Holding "shift" before you drop into the screen will center it!

  • Calling Javascripts with a panel then prevents copy/paste functions in Photoshop CS5

    Hi,
    I have a simple panel in Photoshop that calls a Javascript when a button is pressed.
    I have a simple script that does some Duplication of layers and a bit of simple image manipulation.
    I run the script from the Extended Toolkit and eveything works fine.
    I run the same script from the Panel and the script runs fine; but then the copy / Paste functionality of Photoshop is broken.
    I have to close the Panel window or run the script from the toolkit to get the functionality back.
    EDIT:  I have not narrowed this down to simple interations with the Panel can casue this issue - clicking on icons, switching `Tabs` etc...
    Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Cheers,
    Pete

    Hi,
    I created a simple panel that only had a button that calls an external JavaScript.
    Even if I simply click on the panel a few times, move it around etc without executing the script, I can get the copy paste error.  It happens 90% of the time and interestingly it only happens on the currently active document.
    The only way to get the functionality back is to close the panel.
    It seems to be a focus issue,  but as I'm not calling any script in this case - where could I put the Bridge Talk command? 

  • Copy/Paste From Illustrator CS6 to Photoshop CS6 Issues

    Hi.
    When copying a gradient filled shape from illustrator CS6 to photoshop CS6 an outline "halo" appears in the photoshop image although the shape has no outline to begin with. Is this a clipboard issue? Is it an anti-aliasing setting I can change? Apparently it isn't as noticeable when I drag the shape from illustrator to photoshop as it is when using the copy/paste command. But in both situations there seem to be issues in the border when gradient filled shapes touch other shapes. Please help if you know how.
    Thank you.

    In Illustrator, try a blue shape underneath the butted-together rotated rectangles so seams do not become apparent when rasterized.

  • Copy Paste Photoshop CC for Mac

    I am experiencing a major problem and have searched everywhere online for a solution.  I am using the latest and greatest Photoshop CC for my MacBook Pro.  I have the most recent OS installed also.  My copy/paste function in PS is not working.  When I select all and copy a picture and try to paste it onto another picture, it does not paste what was copied, it makes a duplicate layer of the current photo.  I have used "Command C, Command V" to do this and have also tried from the menu bar, Edit, Paste, etc.  No matter what photo is open, I cannot paste anything to it.  I have tried "Edit, Purge, Clipboard" several times and this does nothing.  Copy and paste works fine in other programs, just not in PS.  Help!  Feedback is much appreciated, please and thank you!

    Please provide EXACT version numbers of both.  Many of us are very reluctant to attempt to answer questions based on such vague information because it later turns out the poster was wrong about what constitutes "the latest".

  • Copy/Paste text between Photoshop & illustrator CC not keeping formatting

    Hi, before when I copied text over from photoshop to illustrator it kept the text formatting. For example the font, font size, color.
    Now when I use CC and copy paste text from PS to AI, all text formatting is lost and everything is placed as whatever the current AI text setting is.
    HOWEVER, pasting from AI to PS WORKS as it should. All font/text formatting is maintained.
    Is this a bug or is there a setting for this that I just never knew about?

    Now when I use CC and copy paste text from PS to AI, all text formatting is lost
    Seems to work for me on Photoshop 14.0 and Mac OS 10.8.4.

  • Slightly distorted aspect-ratio (and missing alpha channel) when copy/paste from Photoshop

    Maybe this is an old topic (but I didn't find anything on google or this forum):
    When I copy images from Photoshop to Flash, the aspect ratio of the bitmap gets distorted. A 728x90 Bitmap becomes 727.6x90 (and so on...). The dpi is set on exactly 72 on both programs. Is there any way to JUST get a 1:1 pixel copy? (except using another program like Irfanview as a "man-in-the-middle")
    Although I selected "32 bit color w/alpha" in the clipboard settings of Flash, the alpha channel seems to get discarded when copying from Photoshop. Shouldn't it at least work with Photoshop? I mean, it's an Adobe product after all and maybe the most commonly used together with Flash.
    Would just be nice if a copy-paste between PS and FL was an easier thing.
    I know there can also be a pixel-aspect somewhere (like used for video productions and wide-screen), but I didn't find settings for that anywhere.
    I still use Flash Professional CS5.0

    I'm on windows7 with CS5.5 and transparency and size are copied over just fine. You answered what would be my first question, 72dpi. How about the image mode. Are you using RGB 8bit?
    I've had lots of issues with the OS not handling transparency very well also, such right-click on an image on a website that you know is a PNG and has transparency, then paste it into photoshop, the transparency isn't saved.
    The route that always works (but is a PITA) is of course to save it as a PNG with transparency and just import it.

  • Disabling copy paste screenshot function from webdypro output

    Hi,
    I am working on a webdynpro application. I have used formatted text view element the outout view. The requirement is when this text is displayed in output it should not be copied pasted nor screenshot can be taken for security reason.
    This means when I execute the program and the text gets diesplayed in Internet Explorer copy paste function should be disable.
    Printscreen option should also be disabled.
    Waiting for your response.
    Regards,
    Abhishek

    I don't believe that anyone ever said that you could disable cut and paste.  This too is a function of the browser interacting with the OS.  There is nothing that you can do from Web Dynpro to effect that.
    I did a google search to how to avoid cut and paste in the browser.  Even with full control over javascript and the HTML rendering (which you don't have in Web Dynpro) this is very difficult to do.  Some suggestion are to use a CSS with a transparent image overlay or to render an image with the text.  Even some of these approaches can be worked around by someone persistent enough - by viewing source for instance. 
    Also avoiding the screenshot is pretty much impossible and certainly isn't the responsibility of the application.
