[Fixed] Can't paste images from clipboard anymore

[LCStark]

Something has changed within the last 24 hours and now I can no longer paste images from clipboard directly in the post. Up until yesterday I could just press Win + Shift + S to clip a fragment of my screen into the clipboard then paste it in the post contents with Ctrl + V, and phpBB would automatically make an attachment out of it (with image name being current datetime, like "11-20-2024, 23-54-51.png").

I've just tried replying to a post and Ctrl+V no longer seems to be doing anything. Tried it again a couple of times, including in this post, and it just doesn't work. I'm not getting any message, my browser console doesn't show any errors. I definitely have image stored in the clipboard, as I can normally paste it into an image editor. Has that option been disabled?

Same issue for me. Very annoying. Changes the option to use images from "nice for explanation" to "wow, cumbersome".

As a temporary workaround on windows, have a look at a small tool I just found, pasteintofile (https://github.com/EslaMx7/PasteIntoFile)

Yes same with me (Windows 11 + Chrome 131.0.6778.86), it used to work a few days ago.

Why would you need that for pictures, if win-shift-s or direct call to snipping tool/old skissors can save to disk already...

Um Win-Shift-S doesn't give me a save to disk option (at least not in Windows 11).
I just paste the result into paint. But it's still annoying.

Pretty sure the tool is the same as in 10, and can save to disk/edit without problems. You should not need paint for it

Snipping tool is a seperate program to Win-Shift-S:

Also I just discovered it has been automatically saving my Win-Shift-S screenshots anyway (in "C:\Users\Isaac\Pictures\Screenshots")

Snipping tool looks like this:

Win-Shift-S however only brings up these buttons:

(of course I can't actually take a screenshot of Win-Shift-S)

Oh and in case anyone else has an HDR monitor, I just found a setting in snipping tool "HDR Screenshot Corrector", with it on, I can now take proper factorio screenshots,

with the setting off:

Noticed that too. Strange.

Looks fixed.

Yes this has been fixed, apologies for the "downtime" on this feature.
