How do I insert a screen dump into a message in the forum?

Hi, This might be a bit off-topic, but how do I insert a screen dump/file into a message here in the forum? I think I recall that I once had a kind of a tool bar where I could insert a file etc., but...

    Ok, a little additional update.

     

    It seems like it might have something to do with the little "icon" in the lower right hand corner of the text box -

     

    I don't know what this is supposed to do, but suddenly mu toolbar was gone again, and then I tried to double-click when I got the little double-arrow when hovering over the icon. Apparently that made to toolbar to appear. It doesn't seems to work the other way around though, so I can remove the toolbar when clicking on the icon so right now I can't really test if this is the simple solution. But maybe someone knows that the purpose is of this little icon/feature?

Hi steen_p ,
When you do a screenshot then paste it directly to the editor, what happens?
Pic below is a sample screenshot I pasted using the the above method.

danextian, Nothing happens when I try to paste in a screen dump. It's only text I can paste in, nothing else.

    Hi steen_p ,

     

    What browser do you use? Please try to change the browser and try again.

    Or you can check whether you have a toolbar at the bottom of this document.

    It may be that you are not logged in, check whether it shows Sign in or your avatar in the upper right corner.

     

     

    Best regards,

      Hi v-zhenbw-msft I have tried both in Chrome and in IE, but it's the same problem. I simply don't have the toolbar. I only have the Subject and Body box , a "preview" link in the right hand side above the Body and then a box below with the "Hint: @ links to members, content" text, but no toolbar anywhere. I have also been through my profil settings to see if there could be a place where I could have turned it off, but so far without any luck :-(. /Steen

        Hi steen_p ,

         

        It is really weird.

        Please try again with edge browser.

         

        If it doesn’t work, please use the InPrivate mode and clear browser data like this, and try again using edge browser.

         

         

        Please ask your colleagues, do they have this issue too?

         

        Best regards,
