    Default Content Catalogue usability, is it just me?

    To be honest, I never really used the Content Catalogue much before.
    Today I started kind of a moodboard, different photos of a theme on a page to get inspired.

    I found a couple of good images. On each one I get an "Import" overlay on mouseover.
    On click, the image gets imported as expexted.

    When I open the Catalogue again, I find myself on top of the list and have to scroll down to where I was before.
    Add a couple of pages of search results to that and you can image it getting tiresome real fast.

    I tried drag&dropping the images, but that does not work.

    Is there no other way to import multiple images easily?
    Also I might just do something wrong?

    Wolfgang, the devil is in the detail.

    Hold down the Shift key and the Imports stay open for another selection.

    The penny just dropped, thank you!
    I knew it could not be this complicated.

    I think it is super complicated. It should remain open until closed.
    Sitting on the Shift key all days is not comfortable.

    As you say, navigating through pages of images to have to redo that if you forget is painful.
