Paul Reid 0 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Dark mode update today YAY. 3 years of users reporting drag and drop no longer works without a fix. NAY. Thousands of screenshots later - I've been using Skitch and Evernote for 12 years since 2007, so close to moving.... Are there any Evernote/Skitch developers on here? Link to post
Evernote Staff* Nick L. 590 Posted June 10, 2019 Evernote Staff* Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hi! Sorry you're still running into problems. Can you clarify or give me steps to reproduce the drag and drop problem you're seeing? We fixed a few of them but not all. Link to post
rcfinn 0 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I'm having a similar issue. I'd like to drag a Skitch image, which has been saved in Evernote, into an Outlook email. I can grab the image, I can seemingly move it to an Outlook email, but when I "drop" the image nothing appears. Details: MacOS Mojave, 10.4.6 Evernote 7.12 Skitch 2.8.4 Link to post
CraigSyno 0 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Just wanted to add to this while looking for an answer on this myself. I was previously on Mac 10.12.6 Sierra which was working flawless, but when upgrading to 10.14.6 Mojave this issue started occurring where dragging a screenshot from Skitch to anything else would often provide a blank screenshot. On testing further however I noted that if I change the name of the screenshot in the bottom-left corner of Skitch before dragging this, the dragging feature would work 100% of the time. This is at least a workaround for now, though it would be nice to see this resolved. If you need any more info from me, let me know and I'll check back a few days a week in case there's any update.

rcfinn 0 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 What do you mean by "change the name of the screenshot on the bottom-left corner of Skitch?" I don't see a filename on the bottom left corner of the image or of the Skitch app. Maybe you could use Skitch to show me a screenshot illustrating what you mean. 😉 Link to post

dakapo 0 Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 +1 Still have the same problems with Skitch 2.8.4 and am not able to drag and drop a Skitch-Image to Apple Mail. Link to post
Jason Lemire 3 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Having this same issue now (dragging/drop OR copy/paste image into iMessage) since upgraded to Catalina. Never had issues before wad was up to date. Mac OS Catalina Skitch 2.8.4. I have already toggled the Screen Recording (fixed the desktop capture) but doesn't fix that I can't drag/drop OR copy/paste my screenshot into iMessage 1 Link to post
Ranxrox 0 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Same issue. Can capture, but can't paste. Haven't tried the rename trick. Mac OS Catalina 10.15.1 Skitch 2.8.4 Link to post
skibradshaw 0 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Same Issue with drag/drop. Now no longer works for Mail or iMessage on Mac. Mac OS Catalina 10.15.1 Skitch 2.8.4 Link to post
Jason Lemire 3 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 So here's what I have noticed since my previous post: If you screen cap your selection, you need to go to the EDIT button at the top-left of your screen. In the drop-down menu, select COPY IMAGE. You can then paste in MAIL and in iMessage. However, what I have noticed is if you screen cap and attempt to DRAG into MAIL/iMessage, this will not work. Further, if you attempt to COPY IMAGE from drop-down menu, after having attempted to DRAG, it will also not work. You will need to capture again followed by the EDIT / COPY IMAGE / PASTE (into Mail or iMessage). Hope this helps some of you! Mac Catalina 10.15 Skitch 2.8.4. 1 1 Link to post

Dear Nick - thanks for the response and apologies for not providing more detail. The drag and drop feature of Skitch is still not working. Drag to any app or desktop on Catalina (same issue in Mojave) and the Green Plus UI icon to show add shows but does not drop the file. See the video of an attempted drag to a desktop or to an email. Copy and paste is only option as per above. The drag was such an innovative UI option. It just seems like there is one line of code unresolved to restore this functionality.

Gazpacho 0 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Skitch responds beautifully on High Sierra. It's a permanent feature in my reports and documents... And emails. Love it. Doesn't work on my new MacBook Pro. Same problem as above. Glitch in skitch Version 2.8.4 (265025) for operating systems Mac10.14 and Mac10.15 using MAIL. It works in the browser... G Link to post
ScottTitus 0 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 +1 Same problem here. Skitch Version 2.8.1 (264719). Catalina 10.15.6 Link to post
joshfree 6 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Same problem here, using Skitch 2.9 and Mac OS 10.15.6 on a 2017 Macbook Pro. Really a drag (sorry) to lose this functionality. I hope you can figure out how to make it work again. But it does work in the browser (see attached). Link to post
Tommytrc 0 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I too am looking for a solution to this drag and drop issue.... BUT heres a work around no one has mentioned. If you have a screen shot THAT IS NOT ANNOTATED <--- important, you can Command A (SELECT) and Command C (COPY) from skitch and then Command V (PASTE) in iMessage. If the screen shot is annotated, only the annotations get copied, not the whole screenshot with annotations. UPDATE. For a screen shot that has annotations...switch to the crop tool and just do a Command C (COPY) from skitch and then Command V (PASTE) in iMessage.. No Command A (SELECT) is needed. Note the key command to select the crop tool OPTION + COMMAND K -Cheers - Tommy Link to post
johnvlang 0 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) Hi, i have/had similar issues... i had v2.9 which failed to launch after a recent macOS update, i'm on macOS 10.14.6. So i completely uninstalled Skitch (using an app cleaner app) and downloaded a fresh copy... i now have version 2.8.1 (which seems to be working ok but no 'dark mode') and checking for updates says i'm on the latest... so, where are versions 2.8.4 and 2.9 coming from/gone? Thanks, John Edited October 16, 2020 by johnvlang Wanted to word it better and include OS version. Link to post
Dersu 1 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 hi team - I can't drag thumbnails from the thumbnail overview screen anymore using Catalina. I can only drag one image at a time from the full screen view. It renders Skitch pretty much unusable. Is there any solve for this or plans to update? Link to post
Dersu 1 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Hey Evernote, any updates or plans to fix this bug? I can't drag thumbnails into anything, they don't drag at all anymore. This is rendering my favorite app I use every day unusable. Please please help!! Link to post

Level 5 PinkElephant 1,373 Posted January 8 Level 5 Share Posted January 8 Personally I am on Skitch 2.9 and MacOS 11.1. My Skitch works as I am used to - and I do not understand what you want to do, and where the malfunction happens. Can you describe it a little better, maybe with a screenshot or two ? Link to post
