Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm constantly having to move images from the browser or PDFs from my e-mail client around and it would be good if I had a faster way to do it.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like if DropPoint supported drag and drop from other applications other than Windows Explorer.

Describe alternatives you've considered The only alternative is drag and drop directly from the browser but then I need the other application window visible (specially in Windows 11).

I just started with DropPoint and I would love this feature as well. I'd like to drag images from the browser (e.g. photos on linkedin, memes on 9gag, etc...) to another app (e.g. whatsapp tab). I don't know if it's feasible, but DropPoint could either copy the image in the clipboard (seems difficult though) or create a temporary file which can be dragged away.

see this windows demo : https://github.com/microsoft/Windows-classic-samples/tree/main/Samples/Win7Samples/winui/shell/appplatform/DragDropVisuals

it's better. much smaller, allows dragging to other applications, such as browser, netdisk client, and recycler bin.

great c++ programers ...
