Hi,<div>Thanks for the work Krzysztof.</div><div><br></div><div>As Jon mentionned, this is the kind of thing the students from Centrale Lyon have to explore during their work on image management (specifications are here: <a href="https://blueprints.launchpad.net/inkscape/+spec/image-properties-dialog-enhancements">https://blueprints.launchpad.net/inkscape/+spec/image-properties-dialog-enhancements</a> ). But don&#39;t worry everything is fine. Your work is very welcomed :)</div>

<div><br></div><div>I asked them today to better communicate with me and the list+wiki concerning what they intend to do and what they have done. I met them a month ago chen they just started to explore the code.</div><div>

Hello<br>
<br>
I wondered for some time how to add an &quot;embed&quot; checkbox to the import<br>
dialog, but it wasn&#39;t necessary - I used the extension parameters<br>
feature.<br>
<br>
I fixed the embedding of images in the following way:<br>
1. If a bitmap file is imported, a dialog appears that asks the user<br>
whether to link. (Same when opening a bitmap image.)<br>
2. When a bitmap file URI is dragged over Inkscape&#39;s window, a dialog<br>
appears as in 1.<br>
3. When pixel data is dragged over Inkscape&#39;s window, it is embedded<br>
an no dialog is shown.<br>
4. When a bitmap file URI is pasted, nothing happens (for now) -<br>
that&#39;s because the clipboard doesn&#39;t support URI lists yet.<br>
5. When pixel data is pasted, it is embedded as in 3.<br>
<br>
As a bonus, all bitmap import should now use the same code path.<br>
<br>
Regards, Krzysztof<br>
