Class VectorGraphicsTransferable

java.lang.Object
  graphics.clipboard.VectorGraphicsTransferable

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.awt.datatransfer.ClipboardOwner, java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable

public class VectorGraphicsTransferable
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.awt.datatransfer.ClipboardOwner, java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable

A Transferable for putting vector graphics onto the system clipboard. This is particularly useful on Windows where EMF format can be used to copy vector graphics onto the system clipboard, from where it can be pasted into many applications, including PowerPoint and Word. VectorGraphicsTranferable will fall back to using a bitmap image format if no suitable VectorGraphics format is registered.

Note: This only works with JDK 1.4 or later.
