Clipboard contains TIFF instead of PNG when using Screenshot Action

I noticed that BetterTouchTool saves screenshots to the clipboard as TIFF, even when PNG is selected in the action menu.

I’d really like to have my screenshots saved as PNG files and copied to the clipboard as PNG at the same time.

It would be great if you could adjust this so that the clipboard uses the same format as the selected file type.

Thanks!


Seems to work fine here, which version of macOS / BTT are you on?

Weird. I deleted the old trigger and recreated it, and now the clipboard also gets the screenshot as a PNG.

I’ve noticed that whenever something doesn’t work as expected, recreating the trigger with its actions usually fixes it. Everything runs smoothly afterward. Sometimes I forget that and end up posting here first :sweat_smile:

By the way, do you know why this happens sometimes? What could be causing it?

I’m on the latest version of macOS and always use the newest BTT alpha build.

In case you upgraded to the latest alpha - I actually found what caused this for you and fixed it yesterday

Ah, that explains it then. Thanks a lot!
