Please specify what version of the library you are using: [3.5.0]

Expected / Desired Behavior / Question

When disabling property "hideLinkUploadTab" a Tab "From a link is shown". If i try to enter a link manually, it will not work, copy & paste link works. It seems taht the textbox is disbaled for editing. Maybe there is a reason for this?

Our users would like to enter links manually.

Observed Behavior

Users can enter links manually in Tab "From a link".

Steps to Reproduce

Use File Picker with Option hideLinkUploadTab set to false and try to add a link manually (by adding text with my keyboard ;-))

Thanks!

Any updates on this? It doesnt seem to have changed in 3.6.0

A solution is to use the 'renderCustomLinkTabContent' prop to render a custom input, and hide the default input

<FilePicker
	...other props...					
	renderCustomLinkTabContent={
		(filePickerResult: IFilePickerResult): JSX.Element | null => <CustomInput />
	}
/>

Same with me here. I saw the above answer, where kenneth sugests to use a custom input and hide the default input. But, i think that the only way of doing that is accessing the DOM and manually disable the default input. In other words, the default input is aways there
