Smart copy
9 TopicsMissing Smart Copy
The smart copy feature in Edge kept missing on my desktops recently. It looks like the smart copy feature is gone after updates (windows or something else). Windows 10 Pro was installed on the desktops. Laptops so far are fine. I tried everything I could fine on Internet with no success. Does anyone have such a experience and know how to fix it?1.9KViews1like1CommentMerge Smart Copy + Math Resolver + Web Capture
Now we have 3 features that require user to select a part of the screen to do tasks on it. I think now it's the time to merge these into 1 unified option. you select an area and then you will have different options to choose from, whether you want to make a Smart Copy, you want to just capture it as screenshot using Web Capture, or you want to scan it for equation to run on Math solver. instead of 3 distinct buttons on Edge toolbar and 3 distinct options either in (...) menu or right-click, just have 1 button, call it something suitable, a multip-purpose button (i haven't come up with a good name yet).1.3KViews2likes2CommentsNew Feature for Web Capture - Subscroller area selection

--Sorry I'm using Google Translate-- --Sorry if I posted in the wrong place-- I noticed that it is possible to use the feature in images and videos, but it is not possible to use it in pdf. These two features are very useful. Please take into account enabling both features in .pdf files.1.7KViews2likes0CommentsHow is Smart Copy able to capture both screenshot and meta data at the same time with only 1 copy?
I'm trying this on EdgeVersion 89.0.722.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) I use Smart Copy to capture a part of a web page, then I paste it into Notepad and I get meta data like texts. then without copying anything else to the clipboard, I open up Paint 3D and do another paste there, this time I get the picture of that part of the web page I captured using Smart Copy! how is this even possible? 1 copy task and 2 different outputs? when I use Smart Copy and then press Win + V to view the clipboard, I only see text, not picture, but after pressing Ctrl + V in Paint 3D i get the picture and after pressing Ctrl + V in Notepad I get text. I'm not complaining though, this is actually very brilliant and smart.1.5KViews3likes5CommentsVertical tabs, Smart copy and Password Monitor are coming to Edge!
Microsoft just uploaded this video: https://youtu.be/yg5cUyPBHjI updated the What's Next page with new stuff: https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/whats-next at some points in the video it demonstrates a sidebar (0:20 and 0:47), it looks very good and fluent, it's apparently for vertical tabs Vertical tabs It's easy to end up with a ton of tabs open. The more you have open, the more difficult it becomes to find, switch between, and manage them. With vertical tabs, you can easily shift to view your tabs in a pane to the side. This allows you to easily see the titles and access controls like mute and close. It even makes it easy to reorder your tabs, with the ability to drag and drop to rearrange. When you want to focus on a specific page, you can collapse the pane. Anytime you need to switch between tabs, you can hover over the pane to see all the information you need. The new Microsoft Edge is the only browser to offer built-in vertical tab navigation allowing for a more streamlined experience. Smart copy Copying and pasting content from the web can be tricky – selecting the content can be challenging and pasting doesn't always look like the original. Smart copy makes it easier to select, copy, and paste content that you find across the web, maintaining source site's formatting, spacing and text. Use your mouse to select any area or content (including charts, images, etc.) and when you paste, you will get the option to paste as an image or to retain the original source formatting, saving you valuable time. This is one of the many ways the new Microsoft Edge is providing tools to help you be more productive while browsing the web. Password Monitor Data breaches worldwide have been on the rise and the security of your data is one of our top priorities. Password Monitor on the new Microsoft Edge notifies you when your online credentials have been detected on the dark web. If Microsoft Edge uncovers a match with your saved passwords, you will receive a notification on the browser informing that your credentials have been compromised. Through a dashboard view, people can see a list of all affected accounts, visit the websites directly, and take action accordingly.6.6KViews6likes28Comments
