Copying a circuit from Web Assign

AI Thread Summary
Users are seeking ways to copy circuit illustrations from Web Assign to Physics Forums for detailed questions. Direct copying of the circuit image is ineffective, as it only transfers text. One solution involves saving the image to a desktop and uploading it as an attachment. Alternatively, users can copy the image URL from the original site and use the image button on Physics Forums to embed it directly. This method simplifies the process and enhances the clarity of circuit-related inquiries.

Good morning!

I want to ask a detailed circuit question and while I could coherently describe it, it would be much easier to be able to just copy the illustration of the circuit.
The circuit doesn't copy into Physics Forums though. Any suggestions or does Physics Forums have some sort of circuit illustrator?

Thanks!

What format are you saving the file as?
 
I was trying to copy and paste it straight from the web site, which I learned only works for the text. I ended up saving it on my desktop and then uploading it to my question as an attachment.
Thanks!
 
Happy to hear that you resolved the problem, and welcome to the forum!
 
Welcom to PF, prettykitty! :smile:

On the original website you can right-click on the image and select "Copy URL" or something like that.
Then on PF, you can click the quick button for an image and paste the URL in the dialog that pops up.
That saves you the trouble of downloading and uploading the attachment (which will still not show directly as an image without further effort).
 

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Site Usability nitpick -- Hyperlinks should be underlined'

This came up in my job today (UXP). Never thought to raise it here on PF till now. Hyperlinks really should be underlined at all times. PF only underlines them when they are rolled over. Colour alone (especially dark blue/purple) makes it difficult to spot a hyperlink in a large block of text (or even a small one). Not everyone can see perfectly. Even if they don't suffer from colour deficiency, not everyone has the visual acuity to distinguish two very close shades of text. Hover actions...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
