image-paste

Paste image data from clipboard into text-editor as new file.

Installation

To install image-paste search for image-paste in the Install pane of the Pulsar settings or run ppm install image-paste. Alternatively, you can run ppm install bacadra/pulsar-image-paste to install a package directly from the Github repository.

Usage

1. Copy image data to the clipboard (e.g. screenshot).
2. Select destination. An file or directory in the tree view, text editor or text in text-editor can be used.
3. Paste the data. Use core:paste (default Ctrl-V) if image-paste.pasteHack is true, otherwise image-paste:paste is required.
4. Select a name. Change the name of the image or accept the suggested name. Note that image-paste.assetsDir is prepended to the name and the selection will take effect.
5. Confirm the name. After confirmation (default Enter) a new file is created. If the name already exists, a warning will appear and a second confirmation is required.

Notes

• The package supports all grammars, so it can be used in various file types, such as LaTeX, Python and Markdown.
• Sometimes copied item may have multiple formats (e.g., tables from MS Excel). In such cases, you can use Ctrl-Shift-V to paste raw text.
• Only .png and .jpg (also .jpeg) formats are supported. If the file extension does not match, the .png format will be used by default.
