Unable to open or download images in the Flatpak version.

Open ForeverNooob opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Describe the bug

In the Flatpak version (in.cinny.Cinny) it's currently not possible to open an image (in a new tab) or download an image.

Viewing images might not be possible since Tauri is not able to open new tabs. There's a FR for this though: https://github.com/cinnyapp/cinny/issues/5

Reproduction

  1. flatpak install in.cinny.Cinny
  2. flatpak run in.cinny.Cinny
  3. Login
  4. Go to a room that has images.
  5. View or download an image.

Expected behavior

Images are being shown or downloaded (as it is possible in the web version)

Platform and versions

1. OS: Ubuntu 18.04
2. Cinny version: v2.0.4
3. Homeserver: matrix.org

Additional context

No response

This seems more likely to be a bug in cinny-desktop, as this works fine on windows (albiet "open in a new tab" button opens the image in a new window)

cinny in cinny-desktop currently silently places those into your XDG download directory, most likely it is ~/Downloads. It might have to do with tauri-apps/wry#349 resulting in the WebKitGTK default instead of tauri using their own save dailog automatically.

Downloading works as camelCaseNick pointed out, in case of opening seems dup of #534 or #5.
