Is there a way that toggleable options could be added to the Insert > Text (From File) menu for PText and MText. My office keeps most of our notes in individual text files so that we can quickly insert multi-line text. I would like to keep doing the same, but insert as PText/MText instead.

Without the option, I have to: open the text file, Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C, close the text file, go to DataCAD, create a PText/MText entity, Ctrl-V, click OK, set the size.

I would like to: pick Insert > Text, double click the text file, make sure the PText toggle is on (hopefully it can remember your last setting), click the drawing, set the size.
