Chromium copy image issue on KDE

fading_shades · 2022-06-02 17:13:40

When I press right click on an image, then copy image, I do not find it in the clipboard, but I find its address, just like pressing copy image address. I have to open the image in its own separate tab, then click copy image and then it works. This bug exists on all chromium browsers, and also chromium apps. Firefox doesn't have this issue.

There're two entries: one to copy the image, the other to copy the address.
Make sure you're clicking the proper one.

If so, please post the offending image/webpage, because apparently it's not a problem when the image is isolated (so it's not the KDE clipboard daemon nor chromium per se, maybe some JS overriding the behavior)
And test it on the avatar image left of this post.

Your avatar is copied fine. It's an odd bug. I notice it the most on discord web app. When you click on an image there, then copy image, only the url is copied in the clipboard. However, this behavior is different on Firefox. On Firefox when I use Discord and try to copy an image, it works fine. What is even more weird, is when I copy an image from discord using Chromium, then paste it into Firefox, it works, but if I paste it into Chromium, nothing is pasted

Can you try this on discord web app or element web app? I face this issue on both of them.

if I paste it into Chromium

How exactly do you paste an image into a browser? I assume you mean some (other) web app? Can you paste an image *from* some other web page (my avatar) into whatever that destination is?

You should alter your topic to reflect the discord situation (editing your first post allows to alter the subject of the thread)

Yes, pasting it into the text box should make you send the image

That sounds like a discord bug, you could try a useragent spoofer extension (and spoof FF in chromium) to see whether it's that dumb.
Otherwise

I have no discord account and don't plan to get one.
