<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hey Robert ,<br>
<br>
I was interested in seeing how people might respond to this
question. I was surprised at Gilles's answer as I've never seen an
option to copy an image file path in my older v7.3.0, wondering
if it was a feature added in a newer build. I'm running it in
Windows 7 and that 'Copy' menu option does just copy the image as
would be expected. When I want to get the actual path to a file, I
right-click a thumbnail and select the 'Open In File Manager' menu
option which brings up Windows Explorer at the folder that
contains the file. I would think Linux would bring up whatever
file manager you have installed. <br>

Thanks, Gilles, but selecting a thumbnail and copy/paste into a
text editor or Paint produces nothing.
<br>
Pasting onto the Windows desktop or into Windows Explorer produces
a copy of the image's file.
<br>
<br>
Same result with copy/paste outside digiKam: select a file name in
Windows Explorer or Xplorer2, copy/paste into text editor or Paint
produces nothing. Pastes the file OK onto the desktop or into
Windows Explorer.
<br>
<br>
Pasting into GIMP produced the message "There is no image data in
the clipboard...".
<br>
<br>
Does the copy/paste work in linux?
<br>
Is this a peculiarity of the clipboard in Windows 7?
