Gmail Drag and drop attachments to save them to your desktop

This is a cool new feature from Gmail. Let's say you open a mail that contains attachments, you simply need to hover over the attachment and drag and drop the same to your desktop to save it. 


How to drag and drop Gmail attachments.


Let’s say you have an email open containing an attachment. Hover your mouse over the attachment’s “Download” link or its file icon and a tooltip appears that says: “Click to view OR drag to your desktop to save."


Simply click and hold, then drag your cursor to anywhere in your file system that you want to save the file. Release the mouse button, and voilĂ ! Your attachment is saved (for large files, you may see a progress dialog).
