I use the "Links" tab in comic edition to add multiple images like covers in a reprint title. When I add the images (interior art, another file) I have to open the "add-window" so many times as files I have to add. There is no problem if I have to add one or two files, but if I have to add five, ten, fifteen... It is a little annoying to open the window repeatedly and click on the archive list once and again...
It would be possible to modify the add-window so I have to add multiple files in one shot? Then I would click on Add button, open the window, select all files I like to add and OK..

Thank you very much for your attention.

Have you tried drag-drop from Windows Explorer to the Local Links window area. I've been doing this in Music Collector, assuming it's the same in Comics. The Local Links will recognize the type of file being dropped, which might indicate that you cold drop mixed files (images, docs, web pages).

Yes, I tried it but it is the same. CC does not arrange the links when I add them this way and I don't want a "suplementary" window open for this action.
I raise it again, I don't know why the program can not has the ability to load multiple images when I open the window for add interior art.The work is done I think.

Yes, it is a bit perplexing that the file selection dialog that opens for Add a Link does not allow for multiple selections, but I was suggesting a method that would accomplish your goal. Additionally, once you drag-drop a group of files to the Local Link area you can then arrange their display order via the up/down arrows in the button bar.

I suspect that if the file selection dialog would allow for multiple selections, then you may still need to arrange the resulting file order for display purposes - depending on how the files are named.
