Client: Feature Request: Enable right click-mailto function for Links in the Windows client.

Created on 21 May 2015  Â·  11Comments  Â·  Source: owncloud/client

Windows client. A right click on a Link should open the dropdown context menu and display "add this file to a new e-mail" and open the e-mail application and attach the link to the file.

EDITED: Add mail subject "$userName has shared $filename with you"

@Kawohl Thanks for your feedback, cc @jancborchardt. Would this work for you?

Instead of right-click which is hard to discover, this should be done with a button. Next to »Copy link«, there should be »Mail link« – which automatically opens the email app defined as standard and pastes the link into the message body, ideally with a predefined message (as we do in the mobile apps cc @rperezb @MTRichards)

@dragotin

@jancborchardt being possible i'd add to prepolulate the mail subject in iOS we use:

"$userName has shared $filename with you"

@dragotin we talked about this in Nuremberg 😉

@rperezb yes, but not all I talk about is implemented immediately.... unfortunately :o)

@MTRichards something to consider for the next version maybe? Not too big effort.

Lol. I just put this on our sheet for discussions...

@rperezb @dragotin yeah, sounds good, also with the predefined message.

@Kawohl i edited your issue so that the mail subject criteria is not lost over the comments
