Please let us add screenshots to comments or updates, as in JIRA. These images do not need to be revision-controlled, like a document, but we need to be able to easily share images within the team, and would prefer to stop using email or OneNote for this purpose.

Same! I do a lot of screenshots using the snipping tool and would love to be able to "ctl+v" my screenshot into the updates.

I have the same question as Andrew - I would prefer to be able to paste an image into the update field if possible!

@Kelly Fones, you have to turn on the option first before you can use the new functionality. This article has instructions on how to change the preferences - https://one.workfront.com/s/document-item?bundleId=the-new-workfront-experience&topicId=Content%2FAdministration_and_Setup%2FSet_up_Workfront%2FSystem-Tracked_Update_Feeds%2Fconfigure-preferences-user-updates.htm&_LANG=en

I went into updates in a project, and don't see how to do this. Is there documentation to show users how to do this?

I have a question about what functionality was delivered here. The ability to add an image file as an attachment is available but I challenge this being the final solution as it involves more effort to take a screenshot, save it as a file, and then upload the file to the update. Is there a plan to allow users to paste in the captured screenshot rather than going through the additional steps to attach an image file to an update?
