Cut and Paste

[Zace66]

I am running a Vista machine and I seem to be having problems with cut and paste... primarily paste just not working - i get some clipart, it pastes fine into Word ot whatever, but ActivPrimary 3 the past just doesnt work at all :(

Any help appreciated.

Can you provide an example clipart file?

I don't use Vista, but I always have to paste any images into WORD or Publisher then copy from there into my flipchart!

With Activprimary there are two options for adding extgernal images to the flipchart:

1) Copy and Paste (as you say). To do this you must be in Design Mode, then right click on the flipchart page and select the menu option 'Paste Image From Clipboard'

2) Drag images in from the resource library. If you have some clipart files you can add them into your Activprimary resource library and they will then appear in the resource tray in Primary. The simplest place to put them is probably in My Collections which (on my system) is here: "C:\Documents and Settings\npearce\My Documents\Activprimary3\My Collections". Any image file in this folder will then appear in the My Collections folder of the Personal Resource Library, reached as shown in the attached image

Well after the good of 'restart' I used both methods successfully.

Cheers.
