Using the Clipboard
You can use the clipboard to copy graphics between PV‑WAVE graphics windows and between PV‑WAVE and other graphics applications.
You can use the Clipboard to exchange graphics between PV‑WAVE and other applications if the other application supports the file formats:
*Device Independent Bitmap (DIB)
*Enhanced-format metafile (EMF)
 
note
Many 16-bit Windows applications do not support enhanced metafiles.
Copying Graphics to the Clipboard
Select Copy to Clipboard to copy the graphics in the graphics window to the Clipboard. Graphics on the Clipboard can be pasted into another PV‑WAVE graphics window, or into any graphics application that allows interaction with the Clipboard. For example, you can paste PV‑WAVE graphics from the Clipboard into a Microsoft Paintbrush window.
Pasting Graphics from the Clipboard
Select Paste from Clipboard to paste the graphics on the Clipboard into a PV‑WAVE graphics window. For example, you can copy graphics from a Microsoft Paintbrush window to the Clipboard, and then paste the graphics into PV‑WAVE.
