Feature: Modal for disabled drag'n'drop in Admin Mode #13209
Comments
Thanks for the issue. I think it'll be less of a problem now that we support admin operations without elevating the main process, but this is still something we should address. |
How about displaying a modal when the app is launched, rather than when the user tries to drag and drop? |
It's usually better to associate it directly with the action, a lot of users tend to skim through prompts and won't pay attention to what it says if it's displayed on startup.
I think there are some workarounds for the file selection dialog. |
Maybe so, but wouldn't it still be better to tell the user that they can perform admin operations without running the app as admin at startup so that the user can quickly see a better solution? |
We can do that as well 👍 |
I'm not sure we can do this one because you can only display one content dialog at a given time. |
Good side of getting dialog only at start then eliminates the need to get it to pop-up at the point. |
I'll work on this |
What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?
#13134 disabled several instance of drag and drop through the app to prevent a crash when running admin mode. (See #12390)
Regardless, there is no way for the user to see it's an intended behavior. A modal should be displayed when the user tries to drag and drop in those situations, with a
