Simple. Drag an image file from Resources into a Markdown file that you’re working on in the CMS. Full bore crash that requires a Force Quit and loses anything you’ve done since last save.

There’s a lot of these Macs-should-work-like-this things that Elements doesn’t understand. What should happen in the above case, since Elements knows the filename, is insert a ![Image alt text](images/example.jpg) into the Markdown. This would save a lot of time and typing.

But as I say, there are plenty of other drag-and-drop-expectation things that aren’t working. Do you guys want a full list?

Thanks for the report. Dragging images from Resources directly into a CMS Markdown file isn’t supported yet, which is why it’s crashing. We’ll get proper handling in place in a future update so it drops the correct Markdown syntax instead of crashing the app.
