Article: [senit] Clicker 5

When you are in edit mode, you can drag images in directly from the internet
- just make the internet page in a small window on top of Clicker and drag
into the cell.

Can't you simply drag and drop 
pictures from your computer into a 
picture cell?
I think you have to go into Edit 
mode first
for which their doesn't seem to be a 
direct keyboard short cut.
Although you can do it with two 
keyboard entries: Alt E goes to the 
Edit menu and then a return goes 
into Edit mode.

Open the picture menu, choose a 
picture from your computer and drag 
a picture into the cell.

Again I don't think there's a 
keyboard short cut and a double 
click on the picture doesn't seem to 
insert it into the cell.

There are quite extensive food and 
drink pictures in the Clicker 5 
picture library
If you have it Writing with symbols 
and Communicate in Print they also 
have good picture libraries.
If you want anything esoteric (eg. 
curly kale, purple sprouting 
broccoli etc then google images can 
find them).

I think you have to save the 
pictures onto the computer and then 
insert them using the picture menu 
in Edit mode.

I don't think you can simply paste 
pictures in from the clipboard.
