Drag&dropping image from outside doesn't work.
It works if you drag&drop it with 'Insert As New File layer', 'Open As New Document'.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The bug report is incomplete. Here are some starter bits I need in order to debug this:

- What image formats have you tried?
- From which programs have you tried dragging & dropping?

Comment 2 acc4commissions 2022-04-11 01:44:06 UTC

1 png, jpg, webp. As I already wrote image format/type doesn't seem relevant.
2 From folders, from browsers, every routes don't work as far as I tested. It also doesn't seem relevant. I haven't tested other 'programs' other than browsers tho. 

* I'm talking about drag&dropping into a document. Drag&dropping into start screen still works with no problem.

Comment 3 acc4commissions 2022-04-11 01:55:52 UTC

I also just noticed that drag&dropping multiple images works fine. It's only drag&dropping a single image file that is not working.

Comment 4 acc4commissions 2022-04-11 02:19:44 UTC

Ok. It seems that it happens depending on what option you selected in Configure Krita > General > Miscellaneous.

When I try drag&dropping after selecting- 
- 'Prefer downloading the original source' : Drag&dropping a single image into a document with [Insert as New Layer], [Insert as Reference Image] stops working. Everything else(including drag&dropping multiple images into a document) seems to work.
- 'Prefer a local copy' : Everything seems to work. Although I'm unsure that I tested every scenarios..
- 'Pasted the attached sRGB bitmap' : Krita crashes/closes. But I believe there's already a bugreport(bug 452130) on this.

Btw in all cases, drag&dropping into the start screen seems to work with no problem regardless of what option you select.

Other problem I found : 
The option itself seem (only visually) resets to 'Ask each time' after closing the configuration window.

Thanks for your comment!

Automatically switching the status of this bug to REPORTED so that the KDE team

In the future you may also do this yourself when providing needed information.
