Hi,
If you need a work around for this problem if you presss command +
shift + 4 your cursor turns into a cross -hair. You can use it to
capture the image you want - it is placed on your desktop. You can
insert it into powerpoint from there.

Try Paste Special ... does it give you the opportunity to choose an image
rather than the link?
Or use the browser's Save Image option to save the image to a convenient
location, then use PPT's Insert, Picture, From File to bring it into PPT.

Hi Steve,
If the picture is in layers then Safari only puts the top layer onto the
clip board and paste special does paste that part.
If the picture is all in one layer then paste special works.

Impossible to say. We're volunteers here, not MS employees so we don't know
what may change or when.
Besides, when you're dealing with several different applications, what one is
able to paste will always depend on what the other puts on the clipboard when
you copy. See Jim's reply for more on this.

Can you point me to an example of a picture in layers on a web site?
I'm having trouble wrapping my wee little mind around that one.
Or do you mean something like a web site with layered content where what
appears to be a single picture is actually several, layered up?

Hi,
Go to this URL:
http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/productrefund/refund.mspx
In the left frame there's a picture of a guy with a laptop sitting on the
floor with the text "Preview Tomorrow's Technology Today." If you copy the
picture the guy sitting doesn't get copied to the clipboard, but the blue
translucent layer with the text does get copied.
Office 2008 is giving that URL some use that it never got before.

Not sure if it's peculiar to Office 2008. I'm getting weirdness here in 2003
on da Winbox too. Copy/paste and get the url.
But:
Here's where the image, an animated GIF, lives:
http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/images/about/innovation_120x240_v04.gif
Open that, rightclick, save image and then drag/drop the saved image into PPT
or Insert, Picture, From File and get the blue transparent layer.
But that's only because you're seeing just the first frame of a three-frame
animated GIF ... start the slide in slideshow mode and you see the same cycle
of images as on the web page.
Copy/Paste to PPT 2004 gives me the guy and text and such, but the image isn't
animated. Rightclick, Download Image to Disk, then Insert, Picture, From File
(the saved image) does give me the animated GIF (but only shows the b/g and
text, no guy, in edit mode).
Are we having an Excedrin moment yet? ;-)

In PPt 2004 (test drive), I could drag and drop images directly from Safari onto my Powerpoint workspace. Now I just get the URL. I can drag to the desktop, drop, and then drag to PPt and it works, but what a pain. This sure is slowing me down.
Any word on a fix yet? >> Stay informed about: Unable to past a picture from Safari |
