How is Smart Copy able to capture both screenshot and meta data at the same time with only 1 copy?
HotCakeX Even I had this question once, I got the same results earlier. I guess it is determining automatically the target paste location and implementing the pasted results accordingly, just like how we do it manually in Word (Paste as picture). Their algorithms for Smart copy are very smart xD
Kudos to the team!

I'll try it on Word soon 🙂- Dennis5mileDec 04, 2020Silver Contributor
Remember one thing though, you can not paste pictures in Notepad. It is ascii coding and therefore paste anything into notepad will change it into ascii coding unless it is text. Take any picture from any place you like and try to copy it into notepad and see the results... So smart copy will not post anything as a picture into notepad as notepad cannot handle it.. But you should be able to in word and other word type software.
Dennis5mile- HotCakeXDec 04, 2020MVPI know you can't paste picture into Notepad, but Smart copy doesn't copy both picture and text at the same time to the clipboard, if it did when I pasted in Word that accepts both text and picture i should see them.
