I hope to add the ability to directly drag and drop files or folders into the chat box.

Every time I want to tell Copilot which file I'm referring to, using the # command to select files feels inconvenient. I hope it can support directly dragging and dropping files or folders into the chat box, which would greatly improve our efficiency.

At the same time, I’d love to see a persistent context mode, where certain context information can be retained across chats, since I need to provide it every time.

You can drag files from explorer already

When I drag the file into the chat box, the file is only displayed in the file list above the chat box, but if I want to clearly tell the AI that you have to refer to a certain code from the XXX file in the XXX folder, and then borrow it from my XXX file, this is very difficult to describe and completely unrealizable.

@AaronKate You can drag and drop files into the input box first, then specify which file you are referring to. If you have multiple files, the coding agent can automatically search for specific code within a particular file. However, providing explicit instructions in your prompt can improve accuracy.

Drag it into the input box first, and then specify the file in the input box, don't you think it's too troublesome? Obviously, it can be specified directly, but now it takes two steps to complete.

It's like going to the toilet, you can take off your pants and underwear together and go to the toilet directly, but now you have to take off your pants first, and then take off your underwear, obviously these steps can be completed at one time
