Describe the bug
Using stage manager to align the "Files" app and Safari (with KiCanvas.org loaded), I am unable to activate the drag and drop.

Expected behavior
I expected same behavior as seen on Safari in MacOS.

Environment

  • OS: iPadOS
  • OS version: 17
  • Browser: Safari
  • Browser version: 17.4
  • Additional info: iPad Air 13" M2 (2024)

Additional context
After a little googling, I realize that this may be a browser limitation within iOS / iPadOS where drag events are not available. If this is the case, a quick and easy way to address this would be to add a file input dialog / button where a user could then use the native file select menus to get the kicad files loaded.

It would be quite a game changer for me if I could explore my schematics and PCB layouts from the iPad while at my bench.

Kudos to you, in any event, for developing and sharing this great piece of software.

Interesting! This would be a pretty nice first issue for someone to tackle, I'm more than happy to have a little button on the homepage that lets you select using a file picker instead of drag and drop.
