Find the .desktop file for Sigil (/usr/share/applications/sigil.desktop)
Copy the file to your applications folder (so it’s not overwritten when Sigil is updated) — in a terminal:
Code:
```
cp /usr/share/applications/sigil.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/sigil.desktop
```
Open ~/.local/share/applications/sigil.desktop in a text editor and change the Exec line from Exec=sigil %F to Exec=env SIGIL_ALLOW_CODEVIEW_DROP=1 sigil %F
Save & close the file
