How to stop Drag & Drop attachements to auto create !thumbnail! in description

Question

When creating a new story in Jira I drag & drop images into the story.

Whenever I do, it automatically adds !thumbnail! inside the text and then I have to select it and delete it because it messes up the text (and I don't need it).

Any way to cancel this?

Thanks.

I'm hoping for a switch in settings "Don't mess up my text with !thumbnail! when I drag and drop" :)

Cheers,

Sagi

understood. just verifying what i suspected. the reason the thumbnail is there is that text area is in context during the drag drop. I wish I had an idea on a solution but I don't at this point.

Yes but it's impossible to work this way.

Each time I press outside the text field, it sends notifications to everybody who's watching the story/bug about 'changes in the story' so it just spams them with emails over nothing.

And I drag&drop a lot of times as I write a story so it becomes a mess.
