I work with around 12,000 product images and build digital and paper flyers and booklets. When I was using windows 7 I would search for the images I required and would drag and drop them into Xara. With the changes in windows 8 I am no longer able to do this, I have to navigate to the image location and open it in Xara then move it into my current document, and this is driving me nuts! I would like to run an app that's docked on the right side of the screen (as the search panel does) that will allow me to search for the image I need and drag and drop it into Xara, I have tried a number of explore apps and none of them allow you to drag and drop. This may seem rather minor but I have a large workload and productivity is very important to me.

Anyone got a solution?
