Drag and drop images?

It does not seem possible to drag and drop images into a gallery. I have my photos organised and stored in an editing program, and it would be a lot easier if I could just drag and drop images of choice from that program into a Website X5 Evo gallery instead of having to use the built-in browser in Website. Under the current system I have to first find the photo I want in my library, then go into the Add Image section for the appropriate gallery in Website, remember where the desired photo is then browse to it with the Website browser and eventually transfer the photo. For a program which prides itself on being drag and drop, this seems a rather strange omission?

No you can't drag and drop, maybe you can create and IDEA post, or i can set this post as IDEA post if you wish.
But what i do:
click the add button in the gallery, then a windows selection box opens you can choose there to show pictodrams of you folder. Then select the pictures you want by using the CTRL-key with the mouse.
After you selected what you want press open.
or use shift key with Left mouse button to select a range

Thanks for the feedback. I am using the same method, but it is a real pain. My photos are stored by date taken, 1 folder for each day, whereas in tghe web site I'm building the photos are grouped by subject. So, for example my bird photos are scattered through hundreds of folders, so to group them in a single gallery involves an awful lot of going backward and forwards. If I could drag and drop I could search by keyword then just drag and drop the ones I wanted into the web gallery.
I would appreciate it if you could make this an IDEA post on my behalf.
OK thx,
changed the post.
