Copy and paste a photo I to body of email

[amyf27]

Ok.. I can't seem to figure out how to copy and paste a photo and / or part of a screen into the body of an email. I was sending a customer tracking information on his order and had to attach the track details. On a pc, I'd use the Snip It Windows tool to snip part of a screen, copy, then paste it onto the body of an email I've started. On the 8+ I don't see how to do that. On pc I use snip it to copy tracking and terminal detail in a photo type of look.

It's a little different. Typically on mobile you can't copy and paste an image, you would need to actually attach the photo.
If you need to crop a part of the image and only include certain info, then you can do so by going into your gallery, and clicking EDIT then Crop or Adjustment. From here you can crap it, save it and then attach only what you want to in the email

I know how to crop areas and save/attach/share them. Just wish I could copy paste into emails.

I don't know if this will do exactly what you wanted to do but if you use the Smart Select option on the Edge apps you can create a selected text area using the options it gives you and then it should ask you if you want to Extract the text of that selected area, the first time it should ask you to download an Optical Reader from the Galaxy apps, and once you complete this you'll be able to paste that extracted text into anything on your phone.

I know how to do the extracted text and copy that but what I'm not able to do is select a photo or photo area copy that and paste it into the body of an email it's not too big of a deal it would just be handy
