TB 78 doesn't read .ics file dropped on calendar pane
TB 78.6.1 ESR from openSuse 15.1 opens a blank event window when I drag and drop an ICS file onto the calendar pane. Dropping an ICS there used to not only open a record but also fill in the fields of date, time, and location. Was there a change in how to import events in the calendar? Did I miss the memo ? :-) Thanks.

Hello you guys why do you use the other way?
Drag and drop?
Just use the normal open ics-files? It works just fine.
To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try the following:
Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender.

Just installed an update (78.7.0) and the behavior is the same.

Thanks for the solution. Last time I looked the "drag and drop" method was the only one that worked. There didn't seem to be a way to import ICS files. Happy to see the change. May still need a way to right-click on an ICS file and import from there.
It's a known problem, but no fix yet. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1683460
