Lubuntu Drag & Drop Option
0
I installed Lubuntu
The first thing I do after installing the OS, I build a link to the desktop.
I'm really a sad because I can't drag and drop url link from browser to desktop , or any folder in Lubuntu. Maybe is some plugin, extension, software, app for lubuntu who can do this? If not , maybe you know other light linux OS for old PC who have this? Thank You.

You didn't tell us the release of Lubuntu you are referring to (and thus if using LXDE (16.04 & 18.04) or LXQT (18.10 onwards)). The only other light linux OS supported here is Xubuntu which included 32bit as long as Lubuntu did. I can drag a copy of this page to my xubuntu desktop & it creates a link; which I quickly deleted as I think it looks untidy

It is very bad that Lubuntu does not support Drag & Drop Option because I like Lubuntu

I'm at a disadvantage in trying to help because I've never done what you're referring to, so am only guessing about your purposes. Lubuntu is built aroundopenboxand I think here is the restrictions in Lubuntu (both LXDE & LXQt). URL links are allowed, (i found info here helpful lxlinux.com/indexold.html#11 but this would not be automatic). My attempts to drag & drop 'automatically' mostly failed, but I don't do it, have little experience & don't knowopenbox. The extra code needed to make it automatic would negate the 'light' purpose of openbox I suspect.

I'm not a programmer, but I can't believe that this option is so complicated :)
