Drag-to-Import-Tiddlers Not Working in TiddlyDesktop on Linux #197

Open vrpapenhausen opened 4 years ago

vrpapenhausen commented 4 years ago

Dragging tiddlers to a wiki to import a plugin appears not to work as expected in TiddlyDesktop on Linux (specifically Ubuntu 20.04). Instead of importing the tiddler itself, it imports a tiddler called "Untitled" whose contents is the title of the tiddler in question. I was using TiddlyDesktop on Windows and it worked fine, so it appears to be specific to Linux.

Update: dragging from one TiddlyDesktop window to another seems to work fine, it's just dragging from Firefox that's the problem.

I just ran into this same problem, except not on Linux. MacOS (latest version). TW 5.2.2. It's a complete show-stopper! :(

Hi @dixonge what browser are you dragging from? Dragging between different types of browser is not well supported by current browsers. I'd expect it to work more reliably if you were dragging from Chrome. Alternatively of course you can export the plugin as a JSON file in the source wiki, and then import the file in the TiddlyDesktop wiki.

Chrome, latest stable version

Hi @dixonge I can't duplicate the problem; on macOS 12.6 I successfully dragged a plugin from a Chrome Version 105.0.5195.102 window into a TiddlyDesktop wiki window, and the import worked as expected.

I'll just assume it was me then - don't need that particular plugin any more - will let you know if it re-occurs

@dixonge what window manager are you using? I encountered a similar problem using swaywm
