WinXP SP3
PMV v3.71 Sometimes, often when copying a large selection to the clipboard (~4000x4000 pixels, 24-bit), the clock mouse cursor works as normal, but the clipboard is not populated with the data, and no error is displayed. (Test: I open a 2nd instance of PMV and attempt to paste into a new image, but the Paste option is greyed out. Same for pasting into CS3.) I am unable to find a reproducible sequence of steps to obtain this problem, but I have seen it intermittently and more than ten times. I reboot to clear the problem. I note it here in case others have the issue as well. -------------------- |

Adding the "/3GB" switch to boot.ini did not seem to change the symptom here: copying a large section of a large image to clipboard does not work 100%.
My workaround has been to crop, save, Undo, then File->New->PMView Window, and open the saved crop there. However, this doesn't work as smoothly when what I desire is a direct copy to CS3. The clipboard would be a lot faster -------------------- |
