Dreamweaver doesn’t allow you to drag files or folders from your desktop to Dreamweaver’s ‘files’ box
Dreamweaver CS4 pisses me the hell off.
I’m using a trial of Adobe’s brand-new Dreamweaver CS4. There has been one single basic feature that I feel has been missing from Dreamweaver since forever now, and that is the ability to drag a file or folder from your finder or desktop right into the files box in Dreamweaver. I figured surely with the release of CS4 this will be added. No chance.
I find it hard to believe that this functionality does not exist in Dreamweaver. All the Mac FTP clients I’ve used allow this. Unless I’m missing some hidden checkbox or preference option somewhere, this is not doable in this latest release (which otherwise looks a bit nicer than CS3).
Adobe, this is a real bummer. This would speed up people’s workflow. Why do you insist on keeping some of the functionality of your software products so close to Windowsey-crappiness. Do you people even use Macs? Do you even publish websites? You should be ashamed!
Man, I wish someone would come out with some extention or patch or fix for this. If anyone out there knows a cure, it would be rad of you to share! 
This works in Windows. Drag files from Explorer right into the files box. It copies them to correct location. Maybe its just the Mac version. Yet one more reason not to use Mac. Or just buy the Windows version and run it in an emulator.

Eddie this is a great reason to use Windows. I don’t know why these software people aren’t sharper when it comes to this… I guess they love leaving off features so they can con us into the upgrade in 4 years. Awesome.
