After using "Copy" function from the Menu, pasting is not possible #190

 * Xviewer version 3.4.1
 * Distribution - Mint 21.2

Issue After "copy" is used, pasting is not possible.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open an image.
  2. Go to Edit / Copy and click. (Or press Ctrl+C)
  3. Open a file manager (such as Nemo).
  4. Right-click to see "Paste" option greyed out. (Or try Ctrl+V and it does nothing.)

Expected behaviour Pasting should work after copying.

Not sure what you are expecting to happen when you paste an image (rather than an image file) into a file browser such as nemo. Having used Edit/Copy in xviewer when displaying an image I can paste it into GIMP, Drawing, Inkscape etc. Similarly if I copy an image from GIMP using Edit/Copy I can't paste it into nemo.
