Now that context menu support has landed in oxide (bug #1326070), link targets and media (images, video, audio, …) can be downloaded from the context menu with a call to saveLink()/saveMedia(), which will trigger the "downloadRequested" signal with the necessary data (cookies and referrer).

Under every image there is a link, named 'Open original' that links to the image itself (like https://files.slack.com/files-pri/T02A1MKNL- F046U9A6V/img_20150328_103844.jpg). But to see the image you've to login to the website. So, when you try to download it (long press -> save image) the browser calls the content hub, and indeed content hub saves img_20150328_103844.jpg in ~/Pictures, but the file is an .html file, and not the image, so the photo doesn't appear in the gallery app. The first thing IMO is to display an error if the file isn't valid, because it took me a while understand what was wrong with my dowload - it says 'Success' but then my photo isn't in the gallery. Then, there should be a way to download private resources from the web To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+bug/1438046/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-apps-bugs Post to : ubuntu-apps-bugs@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-apps-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
