Description Raghavendra kamath 2016-09-21 16:52:24 UTC

This is a wish bug request for adding an option in the existing context menu to add the image as file layer when dragging an image in open document. When a user drags an image in the document he is presented with a context menu showing options such as
Insert as new layer
open in new document
etc. I request to add an entry to add the image to open document as a file layer.

Reproducible: Always

Good point, and would be easy enough to do.

Comment 2 Scott Petrovic 2016-09-22 13:44:56 UTC

cool idea. I could see this be useful.

Comment 3 David Marquant 2016-12-11 21:03:08 UTC

I have, implemented this feature, but have one question left.

Is it OK to assume no scaling or should the user be asked which scaling type to use?

Comment 4 Raghavendra kamath 2016-12-12 04:43:57 UTC

When dragging and dropping the dropped image is in no-scale mode , so I guess keeping no-scale option for file layer too would be suitable for drag and drop.

Comment 5 Halla Rempt 2016-12-12 10:08:21 UTC

Yes, I agree. And I'm looking forward to the patch!
