Since my method didn't work, I'd try Marks, namely to put the keys of the clipboard array into a variable to look at

on mouseUp
  lock clipboard
  put the keys of the clipboarddata into tKeys1
  put the keys of the fullclipboarddata into tKeys2
  put the keys of the rawclipboarddata into tkeys3
  breakpoint
  unlock clipboard
end mouseUp

I tested this in LC 10dp6 and it works. Once you see what keys are present with your mixed text and images copied to the clipboard, you can choose which clipboard array and keys to work with to get the data.

Many thanks to Paul Dupuis and Mark Waddingham.  The script below tries to
test their suggestions.  Using 10.0.0 dp5 on an Intel Mac, and watching
execution after the breakpoint, I get errors at each "try" in the script.
So it does not seem that I can write the fullClipboardData
or rawClipboardData to an array variable; and it does not seem that I can
access any element of the rawClipboardData array.  Further advice is
welcome.

Best wishes,
