ClipCopy is a tool that copies information to the clipboard. Specific parameters determine the content to be copied. Last edit: 2024-04-13.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| COLUMNS | Copies two sets of the current column setup in the syntax of Set COLUMNSTOGGLE and Set COLUMNSADD. The second set includes the current column width for easier editing. This can be directly pasted into a button to toggle columns or adjust the width. Useful to save setups and consolidate folder formats. Add BUTTON and you'll get XML code to be pasted to a toolbar. |
| NAMEANDCLOUDLINK | Loops through selected items and checks their availability in cloud storage. Copies the names and links in separate lines. Useful if you want to distribute links to more than one item and don't want to start a clicking frenzy. Cloud storage often reacts slowly, so the script waits up to four seconds per item. If you want to use Google Drive and your system's language is not English, you must pick the right language in the script. If your language is missing run ContextMenu SHOWCMDS on an item in Google Drive, look for the Label, and edit the script. Don't forget to share your findings! Currently supported: Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Mega |
| NOLOG | Append to suppress logging in the log panel |
| OSMLINK | Creates http links to OpenStreetMap for all selected images that contain GPS data. Similar to what Image LOCATE=osm will create, but copied to the clipboard rather than launched in a browser. |
| QUICKFILTER | Copies the current filter as a Set QUICKFILTER command. Add BUTTON and you'll get XML code to be pasted to a toolbar. |
| VALUES=<headerkey, ...> | Copies the value of any available column. One line per item, separated by a tab. Add NOHEADING to suppress the first line. See below for details.  Requires Opus 13. |
| WANIP | Copies the system's public IP address. |
The following parameters are kept for users of Opus 12. Opus 13 users can benefit from the greater flexibility of VALUES.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| DESCRIPTION | Copies the description of all selected items. One line per item. |
| FILEASBITMAP | Copies the first selected item via the viewer as a bitmap (not as a file). Useful to paste e.g. into Word documents. Users of Opus 13 should choose Clipboard COPYIMAGE instead. |
| NAMEANDDESCRIPTION | Copies name and description of all selected items. One line per item, separated by a tab. |
| NAMEANDPRODVERSION | Copies name and product version of all selected items. One line per item, separated by a tab. Useful for .com, .exe, and .dll files. |
| NAMEANDSIZE | Copies name and size in bytes of all selected items. One line per item, separated by a tab. |
| NAMEANDSIZEAUTO | Copies name and size in bytes of all selected items. The size will be autoformatted by Opus standards (KB, MB, GB). One line per item, separated by a tab. |
| NAMEANDTARGET | Copies the name and target of all selected items. One line per item, separated by a tab. Useful for .url and .lnk files. |
| TARGET | Copies the target of all selected items. One line per item. Useful for .url and .lnk files. |
| TARGETPATH | Like TARGET, but copies only the path part of the target. |

(Optional) Add this button to the column header context menu. It will show a column's headerkey and can copy it to the clipboard. Useful when editing the list of columns for ClipCopy VALUES.

How to use
ClipCopy VALUES lets you create your own set of columns whose values get copied to the clipboard. The command understands the column keywords ("headerkey"). They must be separated by commas. If they contain a space (some script columns might), enclose them in quotes. The first line of the output will be a heading unless it gets suppressed with NOHEADING. The columns don't need to be visible to be copied.
Examples:
ClipCopy VALUES=name,comments
ClipCopy VALUES=name,eval:modifiedsimple
ClipCopy VALUES=name,type,target NOHEADING
ClipCopy VALUES=name,modified,scp:ExifTool/EXIF-ExifImageHeight,scp:ExifTool/EXIF-ExifImageWidth
ClipCopy VALUES=name,"scp:MyScript/Column with Spaces"
