Good morning,

I would like to know which is the oldest version of office among 2016, 2019, 2021 (home and business or professional plus) that supports right click -> "change image" -> "From clipboard" option to paste images into .docx files ?

Is it possible to create a keyboard shortcut with this option?

Thanks

    Arash's answer is wrong. Change Picture>From Clipboard is available in Office 2019, Office 2021 and Microsoft 365. It's not found in Office 2016 or earlier editions.

    Hi @Isacco Fara,

    Agree with @John Korchok. Besides, it seems that there is no direct shortcut for the "Change Picture" > "From Clipboard" option. As an alternative, you can use "PasteAsPicture".

    The "Change Picture" -> "From Clipboard" option is available in Microsoft Office 2010 and later versions. This feature allows you to directly paste an image from the clipboard into an Office document or application, such as Word, PowerPoint, or Excel.
