====== Set Clipboard to Image ======

The Set Clipboard to Image action allows you to set the System Clipboard, Trigger Clipboard or a Named Clipboard to a specified image.

You can set the image in the action, from a custom icon (v10.0+), or read the image from the System Clipboard, Trigger Clipboard, a Named Clipboard, or a file, or you can get the image from the screen (which would be the same as the [[action:Screen Capture]] action).

Note that including large images in your actions can bloat your macro file which can lead to performance issues, so saving large images in a file or named clipboard should generally be preferred.
