Bug description

When accessing a smb network share in Nemo via the network overview the context menu does not show the entry to resize images via the nemo-image-converter. If a mount point is created and the smb share is mounted directly by the user the context menu does show the entry to resize the images as expected. For the user the different behavior is not consisted. It should be the same, no matter how the network share is accessed.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Install nemo-image-converter.
  2. Access a smb networt share via the network overview within Nemo. Do not use a already existing mount point where the network share is mounted to.
  3. Navigate to picture and open the context menu with a right click. The entry to resize the image is missing.
Expected behavior

The context menu should show the entry to resize the selected image no matter how the network share is accessed
If the file / file system is read only the following behavior would be expected:

  • Option A: The resize entry in the context menu should be visible but inactive if the file is read only
  • Option B: Nemo should ask for a location with write access to save the converted image to.
