04/06/2019, 3:15 PM@Marcin Wisniowski The ClipData description, describes what 'type' of data is in the ClipBoard at a particular time, it may be a "text" or a "URI" or an "Intent"

04/07/2019, 6:37 PMIs there a standard way to copy an image to clipboard? I've tried using a FileProvider, but it doesn't do anything when I paste it on the calling app. My guess is it doesn't handle that URL and MIME. Thoughts?
