search box text drag drop from web page

Post by jjjjTTTT »

Dear Dear,

Recently when I use ES protocol in chrome, a confirm dialog will be pop out, this is annoying.

If Everything window supports keywords drag drop from chrom or Edge, etc., that will be nice :D,


Thanks a lot!

I have put on my TODO list to add support for drag-dropping text from Chrome/Firefox.

Thank you for your suggestion.

In this context, you might also be interested in this topic:
12. Button in web browser (Firefox, EDGE) -> to make a search query in 'Everything' (text from the web)

Short version:
- Highlight text on web page in EDGE
- Press web button
- Everything will be opened and the text will be automatically inserted into the search line
