Search for images option in right-click menu

Unread post by Sessh » 2019-10-28, 01:55

I don't recall which browsers I've used before that had this feature, but it allowed you to right click on any image while browsing web pages and have an option to do a web search for the image. I sometimes see images and want to know where they are from or it's origin and being able to do an immediate search VIA an option in the right-click menu was quite useful. Ideally, it would use the search engine that is set as the default.

Why don't you people ever look through available extensions before posting a feature request here?

'Who stole my pictures?' on CAA does the job.

Cool, didn't know about that one. The second line of your post would have been sufficient by itself. There's nearly 20,000 extensions there to look through and I've never heard of that one.

Thanks anyway..

The point is that you either ask in the extensions subforums or look for one..99% of feature requests are what an extension would suffice for.

Fair enough. I'll keep that in mind next time.

@Sessh

Don’t know about a browser with image search but TinEye Reverse Image Search add-on is still available at http://legacycollector.org/firefox-addo ... index.html

Hope this helps.

'Who stole my pictures' searches Google, Yandex and Baidu in addition to Tineye.
