    Description

      Current import flow is not intuitive and requires too many steps before user can add imported items to design. Most likely users cannot accomplish the task without reading documentation.

      • it is difficult to find where to start (there is no option in menus, any panel, context menu nor in Import tab, wording on button)
      • would be nice to get rid of import dialog and have instead good defaults that are always used: user could define those for project and also change those if needed later on.
      • where to find imported things (action started from Resources tab, imported stuff appears on Resources (if images) and/or as Flow tags in QML types
      • flow tags needs to be selected to be able to have your item available in Library

      Process should be really simple for the user, basically just selecting Import, browsing file system and selecting what is needed. Everything else should happen automatically under the hud, ending up to auto sorted items which are ready to use, including fonts without font loader. Assumption is, that if user imports 3D model(s), he is intending to use it. It should appear straight to My Quick 3D Components not as a flow tag.
