SUMMARY Currently, MIME-based actions work for images **when you copied its filename** (with the `file://` protocol). It could be cool that it works with copied images too (raw image). I wanted to use a work-around like this command: ``` xclip -sel clip -t image/png -o > /tmp/clipboard.png && gwenview /tmp/clipboard.png ``` But I'm not able to create an action for images because it needs a regex. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Copy a raw image (not from the file explorer) 2. Enable MIME-based actions 3. Click "Invoke action" OBSERVED RESULT It shows nothing. EXPECTED RESULT It should show MIME-based actions for the image, with the MIME "image/png" for example. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: 5.13.5 KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4
It's a cool idea, but given the lack of movement for so long, I think this is unlikely to be implemented unless someone submits a merge request to do it. Accordingly, I'm going to close this request so that the list of requested features better reflects work in progress or under active consideration. This doesn't mean that the idea is being vetoed, just that there aren't resources to consider implementing it absent volunteer contributions to do so--for which no formal feature request is needed. Thanks for understanding!
