Glitter Drag

By: harytfw
A drag extension that supports you drag text, links and images then helps you open , copy or search it

Features & Capabilities

Glitter Drag is a versatile Chrome extension designed to enhance your browsing experience by allowing you to drag text, links, and soon images, to perform quick actions such as opening, copying, or searching. With support for four drag directions, you can assign different commands like opening links in new tabs (at first, last, or beside the current tab) in background or foreground modes. This highly customizable tool empowers you to streamline browsing tasks by combining drag directions with specific actions, such as dragging a link upwards to open it in the background at the last tab or dragging it rightwards to copy its text. Although image support is still under development, Glitter Drag's intuitive controls and option page customization make it a powerful and user-friendly addition to your Chrome browser.

For issues or suggestions, users are encouraged to open an issue on GitHub rather than commenting on the add-on marketplace. The source code is openly available, supporting transparency and community-driven development.

User Reviews

Users praise Glitter Drag for its rich customization options and ease of use, with multiple reviewers noting the ability to add custom search engines and other options. The add-on generally offers smooth drag-and-drop experiences and non-interference with uploads. However, there are reliability concerns: some users report not working or only partial functionality, plus bugs like image copy failure and drag-related issues. There are frequent requests to expand engine options and enhance specific features, but overall sentiment remains positive.
Pros
  • Rich customization options, including adding user-defined search engines (and options for links/images).
  • Simple and easy to use.
  • Drag-and-drop friendly and non-intrusive to file uploads.
  • Overall positive user reception and satisfaction.
Cons
  • Reliability issues: not reliably functioning in all cases; some reviews report only partial functionality (e.g., 'works roughly 30% at a time' or 'not working').
  • Some feature bugs were reported, such as copying images not working and other drag-and-drop related bugs (like Twitter/X drag not opening in a new page).

希望能在:文本->狂热8个方向->搜索引擎选项中,能多添加一些常用的搜索引擎(如哔哩哔哩,知乎,youtube,豆瓣,X,百度百科,新浪微博,头条搜素,京东,淘宝,Bing的国内国际搜索引擎选项等),并在基本已有的搜索引擎基础上,让用户能自定义添加自己想使用的搜索引擎选项。 其他的:链接、图像方面也可添加类似的功能选项。麻烦作者了,谢谢!

Is Glitter Drag Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Glitter Drag requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on.
