Description

Current behavior requires dragging and dropping folders into xStudio to import image sequences correctly. Or using the command line which I don't know how to.

Ideal behavior used in other tools like DJV is that you open an image part of an image sequence and xStudio will check and detect if there is a sequential number attached to the file. Consequently loading the sequence from the folder.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the current behavior when opening one numbered image, then trace the existing image-sequence import path used for dragged folders or the command line. Done means opening an image with a sequential number detects the surrounding sequence and loads it without requiring folder drag-and-drop or command-line use.
