Demo does not work in Chrome on elementary os (ubuntu?)

[chhch]

The demo https://browser-fs-access.glitch.me/ does not work for me in Chrome. When I click on the following buttons, nothing happens, only the console prints The user aborted a request:

• Open Image File
• Open Image Files
• Save Image File

This buttons work:

• Open Image or Text Files
• Open Directory

In Firefox everything works as excepted.

I come from excalidraw where I had the same problem (excalidraw/excalidraw#4112). There I get a Failed to execute 'showSaveFilePicker' on 'Window': Must be handling a user gesture to show a file picker. Error when I try to save a file as images.

I think the problem is related to this #38. In this demo mentioned in the comment #38 (comment), saving as image works for me.

Thanks for reporting, I can reproduce this on Debian. It seems to be a Linux issue, so I have opened a Chrome bug on your behalf. Please star this bug. I'm closing the present Issue, since it's apparently not related to the library.
