I have the same problem, drag and drop fails in many forms on Wayland (not on X11). If you repeatedly drag and drop from Nautilus to Chrome (for example), it works like 10% of the time.
- sometimes it works - sometimes it pastes a text path instead of the file - sometimes it does nothing When opening a Chrome tab by dropping a file, often I see a wrong path like this: file:///home/thisuser/Downloads/some_document.docx-34:-56:63:64 It seems like the random addendum -34:-56:63:64 is causing the fail. I'm using up to date Ubuntu 22.04, Gnome 42.4 on Wayland. Drag and drop is failing for me since Ubuntu 22.04 release, when I switched to Wayland. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970921 Title: Drag and drop does not work Status in Nautilus: Fix Released Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After upgrading Ubuntu to 22.04 drag and dropping files from nautilus to web browser (chromium, google chrome / apps like seafile, etc.) do not work.
