  • Issue persists in current master

JabRef Version 4.1, Windows 7, Java x64 Version 8 Update 162

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Drag and drop a PDF onto the file textbox in General for an existing DB entry
  2. The file will be added with the full path. In contrast adding the file via Right Click->Attach File will produce an entry with the correct relative path (relative to Library Properties->General File Directory).
