Description:
Images copied from the web page below cannot be pasted into Writer.
"https://www.usinages.com/threads/affutage-manuel-des-forets.105969"

Steps to Reproduce:
- Open the web page "https://www.usinages.com/threads/affutage-manuel-des-forets.105969"
- Scroll down a bit to see the images. Select an image (CTRL+c).
- Try to paste the image into Writer (CTRL+v) => result is a box with no image (deception!). 
- Try "Edit > Link > Break Link" => result is an empty box (deception again!).

Actual Results:
The images are not pasted. Only a blank frame is obtained.

Expected Results:
The images should be pasted correctly.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I have no other information to add (but this web page forces me to fill this box... stupid...).

Can you paste other images? Are you behind a proxy?

Comment 2 Olivier 2022-05-14 12:27:56 UTC

@Timur: Did you try to reproduce the bug? What was the result?

- I can paste images from other web sites, like the "Google" image from the https://www.google.com welcome page, or like images in  Wikipedia pages.

- I cannot paste images from the web site I indicated.

I don't use a proxy.

Note: I try to copy/paste from Firefox.

No, I'm not near computer.
You may try with other browsers and you may save directly from page to computer to see what filetype image is. 
All this because I suspect that osobljem itsy not general, paste should work, that's some detail here.

Are you sure, that there is something useful in the clipboard? I cannot get any image using Ctrl+C. I look at the clipboard with "Free Clipboard Viewer 3.0".
But if I use "Copy Graphic" from the context menu of the browser, then I get the image and can insert it in Writer without problems.

@Regina: Thanks for pointing it out. I confirm what you say. 

So the culprit seems to be my browser (Firefox) who does not put on the clipboard what was selected by the mouse. 

So this is not a bug in LO, but rather in Firefox.
