Problem Uploading images "from my computer"

Post by Jongomez »

Hello Latex Community,
I am using "upload" option to insert images. Until now, clicking on "upload" the system allowed me to click on "from your computer" option text. But now, this option is not activated. What could have happened?
Thank you for your support.

Hi Jon,

LaTeX doesn't have a file upload feature. Do you mean some online editor like Overleaf? Or uploading images to this forum here?

Hello Stefan,
Excuse me, you are right: I am using the online editor Overleaf.

No worries!

Well, then, it's actually an Overleaf-only topic; you could contact their friendly support. If anyone here knows it and can answer, great! Otherwise, it's the Overleaf feature. You can tell is if there's a solution found.

Best regards,

OK Stefan,
Nevertheless I am a little bit concerned because I've send a message over the Overleaf chat cannel and I have no reply.

I'll try to see if there is another way to communicate, but if you or your colleagues could help me on this matter I'll appreciate so much.

Note.-Fortunately the situation is not blocking because I can circumvent the problem by using the "select files" option.

Overleaf: When clicking "Upload", the system retuns with:
Drop or paste your files, folder, or images here. Select files or select folder from your computer.


Thanks a lot,
Jon

To clarify from my previous post:
The 3 options are:
1. Select files--->Now I use this one to acces the imege to upload
2. Select folder
3. From your computer (this one doesn't work directly)

Hi Stefan,
First of all, my apologies for distrbing you with this minor question.
I've contacted Overleaf support and, just as I had suspected, it has been due to a change in Overleaf editor,
Anyway, thanks a lot for your interest. Problem solved.

Best regards,
Jon
