I couldn't possibly include a video for privacy reasons.
It's a very specific situation on telegram web, that occurs to me very often.
When I have the right column open (the one that appears if I click on "saved messages" at the center top, that shows "Chats Posts Story Archive Media...) by default it shows a list of chats.
If I drag a file from a window at the right of my browser into the center column, the one with the Saved Messages chat, I must move over the right column, with the list of my chat. As I do that, the center column is, instantly and without notice, switched to whatever chat name of the left column I moved over! I don't even have to stop, it's instantly selected while I drag and drop (which, being a very quick operation, doesn't allow me to react in time and notice).
It's the kind of behaviour that no other software in the world has (you usually have to stop for a few moments on something why drag-n-dropping to select it).
This is obviously unwanted and must change, I sent files to the wrong person a dozen times.
I don't even need that chat list there but it appears after I select that menu on any contact and then switch to Saved Messages.
It all feels like a trap to make me send files I want on Saved Messages to random people. It's wrong and causes me damage.
Don't you dare calling it an expected behaviour.
Steps to reproduce
Open telegram web
Select Saved Messages in the left column. The Saved Messages chat column will appear
Click on Saved Messages at the top of the chat column. A right column will appear, with "Chats" open, a list of all recent chats
Open an Explorer folder (the OS file browser) at the right of the browser
Drag a file from the Explorer folder to the center column (the Saved Messages chat column) moving over the chats on the right column and release the file in the center chat column. The chat column has now switched to whatever chat I moved over while dragging the file
You have now release the file into a random chat and not Saved Messages. WTF
