One of the most tedious parts of using LRTimelapse is navigating the file tree.
I'm often doing time-lapses in a larger project, so the raw image folders are sometimes buried several levels deep.

On a Mac, I'm used to many programs allowing me to drag a file or folder from the Finder to the application window in order to navigate to that file or folder in the application. LRTimelapse doesn't respond when I try to do this, requiring me to manually navigate each time I want to use it.

Would it be possible to implement a feature in LRTimelapse, making the file tree quickly open a folder when that folder is dragged from Finder into LRTimelapse?
Thank you!

My apologies if this has been brought up before. I tried searching the FAQ and forum, but didn't find anything specific to this issue/use-case.

This is a good idea, I will think about it.
Until then you can use the "restrict folders" feature, which will allow you to only show the folders in the tree that you really use for timelapse. I've explained this in the what's new tutorial for LRT 6: https://lrtimelapse.com/tutorial/
and you can set the folders in the Settings / Folders.
It's really useful for power users.
