Windows剪贴板默认情况下不支持透明，但是您可以将剪贴板上的内容以多种类型放在一起，以确保大多数应用程序在其中找到可以使用的某种类型。可悲的是，最常见的类型（Windows本身似乎在使用）是一种非常肮脏且不可靠的类型。我写了一个很大的
咆哮 有关解释这里。

我假设您已经阅读了该内容，然后再继续此处的答案，因为它包含了下一部分所需的背景信息。

现在，将图像放在剪贴板上并提供透明性支持的最简单方法是PNG流，但它不能保证所有应用程序都可以粘贴它。Gimp支持PNG粘贴，而较新的MS
Office程序显然也支持PNG粘贴，但例如Google
Chrome不支持PNG粘贴，并且将仅接受我链接的答案中详述的凌乱的DIB类型。另一方面，Gimp不会接受DIB具有透明度，因为它的创建者实际上遵循了格式的规范，并且意识到格式不可靠（我链接的那个问题清楚地表明了这一点）。

不幸的是，由于DIB混乱，最好的办法就是将其放入尽可能多的受普遍支持的类型中，包括PNG，DIB和常规Image。

PNG和DIB都以相同的方式放置在剪贴板上：将它们放在DataObjectas中MemoryStream，然后在实际放置时为剪贴板提供“复制”指令。

其中大多数都很简单，但是DIB有点复杂。请注意，以下部分包含一些对我自己的工具集的引用。在GetImageData一个可以发现这个答案的BuildImage人可以发现，在这里，和ArrayUtils那些如下。

现在，关于从剪贴板上获取图像，我注意到.Net
3.5与更高版本之间的行为显然存在差异，后者似乎实际上使用了该DIB。考虑到这种差异，并考虑到DIB格式的可靠性，您将需要手动检查所有类型，最好从完全可靠的PNG格式开始。

您可以DataObject使用以下代码从剪贴板中获取：

DataObject retrievedData = Clipboard.GetDataObject() as DataObject;

CloneImage这里使用的功能基本上只是我GetImageData和BuildImage工具集的组合，从而确保创建新映像而没有任何可能弄乱的后备资源；已知图像对象基于时Stream会被丢弃，从而导致崩溃。它的压缩和优化版本已发布在此处，这个问题值得一读，以了解为什么克隆如此重要。

因为BitConverter总是需要对系统字节序是愚蠢的检查，我有我自己的ReadIntFromByteArray，并WriteIntToByteArray在ArrayUtils类：

public static void WriteIntToByteArray(Byte[] data, Int32 startIndex, Int32 bytes, Boolean littleEndian, UInt32 value)
{
    Int32 lastByte = bytes - 1;
    if (data.Length < startIndex + bytes)
        throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("startIndex", "Data array is too small to write a " + bytes + "-byte value at offset " + startIndex + ".");
    for (Int32 index = 0; index < bytes; index++)
    {
        Int32 offs = startIndex + (littleEndian ? index : lastByte - index);
        data[offs] = (Byte)(value >> (8 * index) & 0xFF);
    }
}

public static UInt32 ReadIntFromByteArray(Byte[] data, Int32 startIndex, Int32 bytes, Boolean littleEndian)
{
    Int32 lastByte = bytes - 1;
    if (data.Length < startIndex + bytes)
        throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("startIndex", "Data array is too small to read a " + bytes + "-byte value at offset " + startIndex + ".");
    UInt32 value = 0;
    for (Int32 index = 0; index < bytes; index++)
    {
        Int32 offs = startIndex + (littleEndian ? index : lastByte - index);
        value += (UInt32)(data[offs] << (8 * index));
    }
    return value;
}
