Dragging Images from Safari to LS doesn't work properly
Raffael
via web
Hey guys,
I enjoy building my very own collection of beautiful designs using
LittleSnapper. But there seems to be some lack of usability.
Say, I want to drag and drop an image from dribbble.com directly to
the LS app icon in the dock. What I expect LS to do is to add this
image to the library. But what it really does is: it opens the LS
browser and displays the image I've dragged on to the icon.
Test it using e.g. this url: http://dribbble.com/shots/110328-Ruler?list=popular&offset=18 and drag the image on this site to the icon.
The problem seems to be that the image source is the
following:
...110328/shot_1296835754.jpg?1296897094 So there's a query at the
end of the url. Could you enhance LittleSnapper's AI to
automatically get the image behind the address? You could determine
the content-type or something in order to detect whether there's an
image behind an url.
At the moment I always have to drop the image first on my desktop, and then from the desktop to LS, and after LS has imported the image, I can delete again from the desktop. That sucks!
Another thing I'd like to mention: The safari extension for LS is cool, but it should also be also able to only send single images to LS (e.g. by clicking a specific image after hitting the LS icon the Safari toolbar).
Greetings from Germany,
Raffael

HI Rafael
Thanks for your message. There's no sure-fire way to detect an image - however we'll see if we can improve the detection!
Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
Kind regards,
Nik

You could simply check the MIME.
