On Windows, Tauri's built-in native drag-drop handler intercepts file drag events before they reach the WebView2 renderer, silently swallowing them. This breaks the ChatUI's existing
dragover/drophandlers — dragging files from Explorer into the chat input does nothing, while the file picker works fine. The issue does not affect browser-based WebUI.Change
src-tauri/tauri.conf.json: SetdragDropEnabled: falseon the main window to disable Tauri's native drag-drop interceptor, letting file drag events propagate to the WebView as standard HTML5 events.No changes to application code are needed — ChatUI already implements
dragover/drophandlers that readevent.dataTransfer.filesand feed them into the existing attachment upload flow.Summary by Sourcery
