Can we paste the contents of the PrintScreen keyboard button on a field or a widget and have it become an image upload automatically?

    A Blessed day Supportive JotForm Team!
     
    Thank you for your great service as always!
     
    By the way, I have a concern about using Print Screen then paste it on a text box.
    Is it possible? I only learned it in Gmail and Yahoo mail where once you click PRINT SCREEN on your keyboard then go to compose a message and PASTE it there and it will turn as an image file instantly! :)
     
    I hope there's a widget for this kind of maybe a rare request...
    Perhaps, please share me the CSS or HTML code for this.

    It will be a perfect help for our clients who do not have to make or save an image file, where they only need to use PRINT SCREEN and Paste it on a text box.
    Please help us.
     
    We are looking forward to your quick help.
    Thank you so much in advance!
    GOD bless us all!


    Sincerely,
    Nancy

    I'm afraid we do not have an element or a widget that would allow form submitters to hit the print screen keyboard button then paste that into a field to it become an image upload in the form submission.

    With that said, I am escalating this to our second level team as a feature request, and we will be notified of any update via this thread.

    I hope this helps.

    It's a TEXT BOX in Rich Text mode.
    And I hope you can help me allow to paste the captured image from PRINT SCREEN and NOT from a saved image file.

    Thank you for the additional information and a clearer description of your request.

    My colleague, Aidan, already submitted the feature request to our development team. The request will be reviewed to check its feasibility. Although we cannot provide you any timeframe to when it will be implemented, rest assured that once we get an update from our developers, we will notify you in this thread the soonest.
