Drag and drop of QR codes not working

Overview

I remember dragging and dropping QR code seeds onto the KeePassOTP window used to add the seed, but lately this hasn't been working with any site I've tried. I can't remember all the site names that have draggable QR codes that don't work, but I'll list the ones I do remember:

Expected Behavior

Drag QR code from 2FA setup page onto the KeePassOTP window and it's added as a 2FA seed.

Actual Behavior

Dragging the QR code onto the window does nothing. KeePassOTP window remains blank

Context

OS: Win10 v1709
KeePass Version: 2.46 (latest as of writing)
Plugin Version: 0.18.2 (latest as of writing)

NOTE: Plugin is set to save my OTP stuff to the same database as the passwords, as entering my password twice for OTP access was a pain (and bypassed the point of my using Windows Hello plugin to unlock my database), and saving the OTP stuff to a database within the database feels really weird.

I couldn't get the GUI option to enable debug mode to work (box wouldn't stay ticked, didn't do anything); had to use command-line launch:

Feature Request: Any chance you could add support for just pasting in the URL of the QR image in advanced settings, similar to Winauth? This would be a useful workaround for when the image cannot be dragged (and no alternative seed code is provided)

I was able to import the seed for the OTP into KeePassOTP by adding the Windscribe OTP QR code URL to WinAuth, then exporting the data from WinAuth to a TXT file, which listed the otp URL with the seed (which I then pasted into KeePassOTP)

Actually, KeePassOTP tries to use the image's URL already today.
Appearently the currently used QR decoder is not able to decode the image / the image URL.

I will replace it by ZXing

Version 0.19.1 now uses ZXing.net to read and write QR images.
I tested it successfully with Windscribe.

Pasting the data:/image URL used by Windscribe to display the QR image is possible as well.

Please re-open if not working for you.
