attaching pictures from Firefox/Thunderbird

Postby yogi » Mon Feb 22, 2016 5:14 pm

Hi,
when dragging a picture form Firefox/Thunderbird to CN I noted two different behaviours.
A) it just workes fine
B) there is a message, that the picture is not found.
When I save the picture to some directory I can drag and drop it to CN.
My feeling is, that this is not really a bug from CN but depends on how the picture is embedded in the html.

Any thought how to work around this?
Thanks
Yogi

Direct dragging of pictures is not really supported yet, so it is odd that sometimes this even works.
Probably FF creates a temporary file on the fly or something like this?
For the time being, I'll recommend always saving the picture to a file first, and then attaching this file to CN.
I realize this is not too convenient, and in the future we''ll definitely add direct drag-and-drop support.

Sounds great, thank you Alex!
