Send Images to the Clipboard with GdiPlus-X REVISITED

Some days ago I posted a solution based on Alexander Golovlev's GpImage Gdi+ class showing how to send an image to the clipboard.

We agreed that although this function is not present originally on the "system.drawing" namespace from .net, it could represent a good addiction to the gdiplus-x livrary for vfp. so, the function "toClipboard()" was added to the bitmap class.

From now on, I mean from gdiplus-X release 0.07 and forward, we can send any Gdi+ compatible image to the clipboard using the new "toClipboard()" function just added to the bitmap class using the simple code below:

 

** the following code example demonstrates how to send an
** image to the clipboard
do locfile("system.app")
local lobmp as xfcbitmap
lobmp = _screen.system.drawing.bitmap.new(getpict())
lobmp.toClipboard()
