[Feature Request] "Save image" context menu changes

Post by GuntherZ »

I updated to the latest version of Slimjet yesterday and just noticed that "Save image" has been changed to "Download image" in the right-click menu. If it were only a change in terminology, I wouldn't care much, but it's more than just the name. For years I've used the same macro to save images in Chrome at the push of a button on my keyboard, and now that macro is broken. The main change is that "V" is no longer a hotkey for the "save/Download image" menu option. As far as I can tell, there is no longer a hotkey at all for this option. From what I could gather in some Chrome forums, the "Save image" vs "Download image" menu option is changeable via the chrome://flags/#saveas-menu-text-experiment flag. I haven't used Chrome in a while so I can't verify the functionality in that browser, but in Slimjet, toggling that flag does nothing.

I realize that Slimjet updates are (to a certain extent) at the mercy of whatever arbitrary changes the Chromium developers decide to implement. That said, is it possible to revert to the "Save image" option (with the "V" hotkey), or at least make it toggable with the chrome flag?

I would also like to change this back to save image as...

Is there a extension or file I can edit to change it back?
