Hi. I added a file chooser so the user can select an image. I store the blob URL into an array to access it again later and it seems to work fine in the current session. But when I close the browser and try to open the blob URL I get an error and no images is loaded. But how can I store/remember a selected pic if this does not work in a new session? Is there any workaround? Or is this only a problem in Preview mode? (I use LAN preview with IP)

Have you tried storing the data with localstorage?

Yes, I store the array data as Json string with local storage and load it on launch. Debug shows that the data is saved and loaded properly but the blob:http:// links are not working when I start a new browser session. But I tried only in Preview so far with local IP.

If you are sure it's not a problem with your code, then I think you should make a simple project to reproduce the problem, then fire a bug report about this.

I exported to NW.js and its the same there, so not only in preview. I created a bug report. But I am not sure if it's a bug or working as intended.
