Copying Images / Discord Drag&Drop

Post by miniboes »

Hi, I just found the program and am loving it, but have one issue: it's quite hard for me to share files from XnView to discord. Sharing files to discord can be easy in 1 of 2 ways; either dragging and dropping or copy-pasting the image. For some reason, discord refuses drops from XnView. This wouldn't be a problem if instead i could just copy an image from the browser and paste it, but copying with ctrl c just gets me the image path instead of the image itself. I do copy the image itself if I open it (rather than viewing in the file browser) but that's not very convenient when trying to share multiple images. Is there any way to make it so that when I press ctrl c in the file browser it copies the image rather than the file path?

Yeah, from explorer works fine. I should mention that it doesn't work either when dragging and dropping from chrome's download bar, so that part of the problem could be on discord's part.
