Ability to add images to the CMS from the Asset Manager

When adding images to a collection within the designer, you have the ability to choose existing images which have already been uploaded via the asset manager in addition to the current ability to upload new images.

    Absolute insanity this isn't a thing. Not to mention that 'compress assets' in the CMS doesn't even seem to properly do just that on CMS images (separate from Asset images). Unbelievable.

    This is a massive frustration. To the point of failure for external projects. Eight years past so, I don't have any hope it will be fixed now. Perhaps it is driving extra revenue from storage capacity upgrades...

    @Ryan Davidson, you can specify an Alt tag in the template designer. Click the little cog when you have the image selected and an Alt Text dropdown lets you choose another CMS data field as the text source. So just make an Alt text field.

    seems like a waste of space having to upload images twice!

    This is so obvious in other CMS,

    why would a featured image need to be reuploaded so many times?

    This would be such a lifechanger - please let us just chose images from the left asset manager lik we do normaly.

    Yes this is also necessary to have a decent way of adding alt-texts.

    This is such a design flow with the system.

    Much needed feature! How is this missing? How is anyone able to manage a portfolio CMS without this?!

    Actually, issues like that stop us from purchasing the enterprise package.

    It is ridiculous that that this has been sitting here for 6 years without being addressed. It is an absolute no-brainer and a huge pain for users as long as it is unsolved. So basic.

    Very basic feature, very much needed

    Do we have to start migrating clients back to WordPress because core functionality like this still hasn't been implemented and isn't being addressed via a roadmap?
