Zoho Forms - Feature Request - Past Into Scanning/OCR Field

Zoho Forms - Feature Request - Past Into Scanning/OCR Field

Hi Zoho Forms Team,

You recently introduced the OCR/Scanning field which I have found great use for with one client who receives work orders as a screenshot from one customer.

I want to raise a feature request here which would make that field even more useful.

I would like the ability to past an image as well as the current upload feature.

When working on the desktop it would be very helpful if the client did not have to save the file and then upload it to the scann field. If there was any way that they could "Insert from clipboard" that would be fantastic!

Thanks for considering my feedback.

Ashley
