Re: Feature Request: Paste images into Rich Text Field

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the clarification, yes if you are pulling an image from your computer directly or for example copy and pasting from Word into a Rich Text field then it does not pull across. I was thinking more when it was already hosted (places like Sharepoint pull the image converted to Base 64 since it is already an online resource. In that case yes the best course is to upload and reference it. If having that process be available inside the Rich Text field instead of through a File Attachment field and URL would be more what you are looking for I would definitely recommend submitting it to our User Voice. It is true we don't have a utility that is built into our rich text fields to directly upload since we have the ability to call in our existing File Attachment fields.

    I agree with Matt that there needs to be a way to paste images that are not hosted on the internet somewhere. This is a function that BaseCamp has already, and my team is not happy with the transition to QuickBase because of it.
    When I tried to put my feedback to the "User Voice" I got this error:
    How would I get the feedback in?
    BTW: It's ironic that I can paste this non-internet image on the "User Voice" error into this forum, but not within QuickBase.

      Hi Brad,

      Since this post we have updated our feedback platform and are no longer using User Voice. You can instead find out new feedback experience on the My Apps page when you are on Quickbase under the feedback tab. That way you can add in your request where our product team will be sure to see it and other users can add their vote of support.
