I have occasionally (not always) the same issue. The link is set, but without showing the dialog before.

@0xswitch this should not be the culprit unless the image is so large and the computer is so overloaded that it takes more than 1 second for the image to be created.

I want to ask all people in this issue: how large is the image when you encounter this issue? Do you feel significant latency for the image to be pasted?

@reorx I can't say for sure since i'm doing my own screenshots so it can be an area or the whole screen but mostly they are areas with the size of around 200kb, i also didn't notice any lag or anything like that.

@JStyle21 got it, are you still encountering this issue after upgrading to the latest version (1.6.0)?

@reorx Yes, issue is still there, just installed a fresh 1.6 and tried to paste an image, tried all attachments also didn't work. If there is something else to try or if i'm not using it properly let me know but i couldn't get the dialog even if the image is pasted from the FS or dragged or any other combo i could think of.

maybe the image isnt't that large but it is stored on a remote server (obsidian vault stored on a smb server for example) and it takes much time to save it.

edit: I just made a test with the latest version. It works when the vault is on the same host but doesn't when the vault is on a remote shared folder !

@0xswitch I'm only using my obsidian locally and it doesn't work... Can you try with an image capture app like spectacle, greenshot etc.?

This spectacle https://github.com/KDE/spectacle? Seems that I need a Linux environment to test this plugin.

Yes, that's spectacle but you can use greenshot or any other app that performs screenshot to clipboard

Hi,

I'm having the same bug in Windows 10. I installed the plugin for the first time. So it never worked beforehand (except in the sandbox vault. see below)

• I tried it with active and inactive option Handle all attachments
• When I try it in the Obsidian Sandbox vault the dialogue the dialog works!
• The sandbox vault is saved locally (C:) my actual vault is saved on a mapped network drive. So it seems there is a problem with network drives
• Image sizes 500-800 kb

Expected behavior Dialogue to rename image

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

I wanted to add that on my system (linux - zorin), the file.stat.ctime property is 0. Why? No idea. Probably because the filesystem doesn't store that information or the api does not expose it. This results in the plugin not prompting the dialog at all, as the timeGapMs will ALWAYS be more than 1 second - as it is essentially the current time (due to ctime being 0). A workaround for this might be using the mtime in the case when ctime is 0.
