Add "Save link as..." Mouse Gesture and Hotkey

[kay_D]

Hi,

Some Pages, e.g. for Banking, make you download lots of PDFs. In order not to show them but save them instead, you have to right-click on the link, move down and select "Save link as...". My wish is to have easy access to "Save link as ...":

• have a modifier key like "Shift" to make "Shift-Click on link" perform a "Save link as ..." action
• have a mouse gesture to perform "Save link as ..."

Thanks,
Kay

@kay_d As a work around while you're waiting, you may find it much quicker to use mouse + keyboard, i.e. right-click, k.

A Links Panel would also be helpful when downloading a lot of files from a single page.

I don't even have the "Save link as" option anymore. And yeah I looked at the Appearance / Menu settings. It's just not available as a command on links. "Save Image As" is, and I was hoping that's a fluid name. I needed this to work for PDFs as well.

@firsh This may be a bug. Save Link As... is on the default Link menu, but is not listed in the Commands in Settings, Appearance, Menu Customisation, Link menu, Context or Application commands.

Please see How to Report a Bug.
