Description Patrick Silva 2022-02-05 10:23:25 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. run a crhomium-based browser natively on Wayland (I tested ungoogled chromum from flathub and Opera.
I'm unable to reproduce this bug - nothing happens after these steps - with Firefox.) and navigate to any website
2. Drag the URL from the URL bar to the desktop

OBSERVED RESULT
Plasma creates a Stick Note on deskop

EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma creates a .desktop file launcher for the URL

On neon unstable, a stick note is also created when I drag a .jpg file and drop it on desktop.

Proooooooooooobably a Chromium bug.
Comment 3 Clay Weber 2023-06-14 22:20:20 UTC 
I see this in Firefox with URLs I get a Sticky Note. Chrome doesn't do anything.

Both Kde Neon and Fedora 38, Plasma 5.27.5

Wonder if that is fixed by https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtwayland.git/commit/?id=80a3359598553298b544feae0a7e7399d6cfd9a7
Comment 5 Kai Uwe Broulik 2023-11-11 09:35:11 UTC 
Hm, nope, still happens even with that, it gets a moz-url from Chromium but then doesn't actually trigger the conversion code I added, interesting...
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2023-11-15 22:39:09 UTC 
Nice, thanks!
Comment 8 Valter 2024-06-25 18:34:08 UTC 
This bug reapperead with KDE neon 6.1 with Firefox and Wayland. Dragging an url to the desktop creates an empty sticky notes window.
 With Chrome and Chromium browsers nothing happens: no sticky notes widget, no shortcut created.
Comment 9 Nate Graham 2024-06-25 23:01:12 UTC 
https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtwayland/+/518018 isn't merged into Qt yet. That's the final piece.
