a) Can't drag and drop files from Thumbnails view to another folder in left pane Albums view. b) Can't drag and drop files to map in Geolocation Editor window. Unallowed drop location symbol occurs when trying. As there's two similar behaviors, same problem possibly elsewhere too, haven't tested. Possible to use alternative methods from right click menu ("Move to Album..." and "Copy coordinates"). SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 23.04 / ? KDE Plasma Version: ?

Did you use the AppImage bundle or a native version from your system ?
AppImage
Both drag and drop actions work here under openSUSE without any problems with the AppImage. Which Linux system are you using? Maik
Ubuntu 23.04
Is your Ubuntu up to date? I mean we already had a bug report about drag and drop and after an Ubuntu update everything worked again. Maik
Should be. I've just upgraded ubuntu 22.10->23.04 and digikam appimage 7.9.0->8.0.0, so I have only tested it on freshly upgraded 23.04.
7.10.0->8.0.0
It's possible to drop files to web browser or (gnome) Files, but all digikam window appears as inallowed drop location.
Also Kdenlive is disallowed. This must be KDE issue?
Appears that this is NOT digikam issue as it seems to appear within Kdenlive too, so possibly all KDE within Ubuntu 23.04 in my system is affected. I appreciate if you can suggest where to get help for this, or can this bug report be transferred to appropriate component?

The main differences with the KDenlive and the digiKam AppImage are: 1/ the way to compile it : I do it on my computer, KDenlive uses KDE infra. It can be interesting to try the KDE infra version of digiKam, but as we don't support it officially, i fear to see more problem than the handmaid version. https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/AppImage/job/Digikam_Nightly_appimage-centos7/ 2/ The Qt T.15.x version in AppImage from digiKam is certainly older than one used in KDenlive. This is the low level common code used by both application to share data to the clipboard. Gilles Caulier
Here's something suggesting it's gnome issue, and should be already fixed: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2715 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2978 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/2013235
Fix is possibly not yet in Ubuntu, but building mutter from source is reported to work. https://github.com/OpenShot/openshot-qt/issues/5221
Definitively, it's a DOWNSTREAM problem located in Ubuntu/Gnome implementation. Thanks for your investigations and links. Best Gilles Caulier

FYI: Fix is not yet available for Ubuntu 23.04. Apparently mutter 44.2 fixes this. Current version https://packages.ubuntu.com/lunar/mutter
Switching to XCFE seems to fix this. I used command: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop^ During installation I also chose to use lightdm when offered. Some further steps of optimization I haven't tried https://askubuntu.com/questions/65861/how-to-i-change-from-ubuntu-to-xubuntu
*Xfce*
This is now fixed in Ubuntu 23.04.
Fixed with bug 469961
