What It Does
Invoked by the import channel functions and import layer functions, the Import dialog box lets you specify
options for importing channels or layers. This can be done by importing textures into existing layer stacks,
layers, or as new channels, however, importing textures as a new channel only opens the Import dialog
box after first selecting options for the new channel from the
Add Channel Dialog Box.
