Open more than one rawfile with Adobe RAW

[Buster]

I often have to develop lots of CR2 in one go with Adobe Raw - usually I do it using breezbrowser. If I select a couple of raws in IM5, they were opened one by one in Adobe Raw. This is boring - why aren't they opened all to develop them in batchmode? Or can I edit this in preferences?

I don't know.
But open FIRST Photoshop, select all images in IM, and then drag and drop them into PS, and then all are open in RAW together.

Tried this. No problem on my system. PS CS6 64bit.
All files open in PS ACR together no matter how I get them into PS.

That's exactly how I work. I select a set of RAW files in IMatch 5 and then drag them to the CS window. CS opens all files in batch more in the RAW development module.

Works likewise in LR, although LR. Drag files from IMatch 5 to the Library module in LR. As long as all dropped files are from the same folder, LR can cope.

I find the drag and drop of files especially powerful in the case of categories.

If I select for example cat" Lizards", I get a mixture of images taken with two Nikon, a Panasonic, a Fuji, a Minolta. They are of course in different folders and sub-folders. When I drag them  to ASP and launch a batch develop the derived JPG/TIF are neatly located in the corresponding sub-folders. Flexible and saves a lot of time and possible errors.
