Snapshots Always Paste at 72 DPI

Post by Bhikkhu Pesala »

I can set the Snapshot Tool to 600 dpi (or whatever) in preferences, and the resulting snapshot has the appropriate number of pixels when pasted into IrfanView, but the DPI is always set to 72 dpi.

Is that expected, or is it a bug?

If I use the Viewer, the DPI is copied correctly.

You are right, it copies at the correct DPI, but does not set the information in such a way that the clipboard retains the DPI setting.

It has been fixed in development as of right now and will be in the next release.
