"Run" button for Import & Export panel items

[photoken]

I'm using IM5 exclusively on a notebook PC (without a mouse), and it's a bit awkward using the touchpad to drag & drop a group of images across the screen from the File Window to one of the Import/Export panel items.

Since the relevant images are already selected in the File Window, it would be great if the E-mail item (for example) had a "Run" button that I could simply click to begin the process.

The Import & Export panel takes all kinds of objects, not only files (varies between modules). A user can drag and drop folders, drives, files, categories, collections, time line nodes and combinations to process them.

Solution: Add favorites for your most often used Import & Export modules. You can run a Favorite via s simple click or a keyboard shortcut.

OK, so the code behind the "Run" button would have to accommodate the appropriate input objects....

Aha!  That works for e-mailing.  Thanks for the tip.  Actually, it's probably better, since I won't need to have the Import & Export panel loaded, and I always have the Favorites panel loaded.
