Supporting dragging images directly from web browser

Post by fireattack »

Currently, you can drag images from XnView MP into browsers (Chrome, Firefox) just fine.

You can also drag images from explorer to Xnview MP, or from Xnview MP to explorer.

However, you cannot drag (download) images directly from browser into XnView browser.

If it's supported, it would be very useful for downloading image directly into the folders you're opened in XnView MP.
