Why do I not have the ability to make a new folder in the import tab? This is some simple 101 UI ability. Instead I have to go into Windows Explorer to make a new folder from there. Super annoying and it has been like this since you changed to the Import/Edit/Export tabs. I just cant understand why these "bugs" doesent get fixed. Dont you have meetings discussion your software interface? Arent you using your own software?

In Windows i can right click anywhere in the Import dialog to create a new folder or click on the New folder icon up left in the same dialog.

I'm talking about the import tab, which Adobe seems to want us to use.

A bin is just inside the software. I want to have the ability to also keep structure in Windows Explorer. "You cannot make a folder/bin inside the Import tab." Thats the whole point of this thread


I will move the thread to Ideas.

 

If you use the Project window to import your stuff there you can make folders in WExpl.

If it was up to me this whole Import tab should go away.

Adobe's semi-official answer to complaints like these: The Import tab is not meant to be used  🙂
