I remembered a feature that used to let you drag an image from a web browser into the Book Details right sidebar in Calibre in order to add the image to the cover metadata. I thought I may have confused that with something else, but then I found this post in another part of this forum:

But now it doesn't work for me. I'm running version 0.8.52, and the earliest I remember it working was somewhere before 0.8.35.
Does anyone know what happened to this feature? Was it removed?If it was, consider this a request for it to be re-added.
I enjoyed it a lot because the built-in cover downloader can't always find covers for some books and the dragging method doesn't require downloading the image and then browsing to its directory.
Thanks for any help.
