[SOLVED] Copy Image with UIPasteBoard (Swift)

Copy Image with UIPasteBoard (Swift)

I recently saw this project in which a user can tap on a GIF from a custom keyboard and they would see a "copied" toolip appear. I have one question:

How does one reproduce this tooltip in the products GIF-Tutorial?

Could anyone give me some sample code to work with. I understand how to use UIPasteboard and it's functions, but I can't seem to get it to work when I put in the UTI type "public.png" in this function: (I noticed in Objective-c it's "@public.png", but I placed "public.png" I couldn't find a source online for this)

 let imageURL = NSString(string:NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("test", ofType: "png")!)
        var data = NSData(contentsOfURL: NSURL(string:imageURL)!)
        UIPasteboard.generalPasteboard().setData(data!, forPasteboardType: "public.png")

Solution

Try using this code:

let image = UIImage(named: "myimage.png")
UIPasteboard.generalPasteboard().image = image;

you can find out how this works here!

Hope this helps

Swift 5.1

UIPasteboard.general.image = image
