  • Dragging favicon from URL bar to create a .webloc file (like Safari)

  • SuggestionsDone

Like in Safari I'd be glad to have the feature like in Safari: When the address-bar is activated I can drag and drop the fav-icon in front of the address to the desktop or any folder. Safari then creates a .webloc-file which can be used as a shortcut to the website. In Firefox it does so in the same way.
In Orion if I drag out from the address-bar like described, the ghosted text ist visible as in Safari, but then snaps back to the address-bar and nothing happens.

It is so handy, I use it a lot. Would be great to have.

    Many thanks. Seems on 0.99.109-beta it works dragging an url to a folder creating a .webloc-file.
    The look is a bit weird on dragging but it works. 🙂
    Now, I just tested the opposite and dragged a .webloc back on Orion and nothing happens. 😉
    I expected it would open the related url in the active tab I had it dragged onto.
    Would be great to have that function, too. 🙂

          Seems to be broken in version 0.99.113-beta (WebKit 613.1.12). I cannot drag a URL from address bar outside to create a .webloc file.
