How to add new resource file to WPF project in Rider

Is there any "easy" (drag-and-drop) method to add a new file to Resources.resx to the WPF project in Rider? The only way I found is to add file to Resources folder and then open Resources.resx in XML format and add this:

<data name="name_of_resource" type="System.Resources.ResXFileRef, System.Windows.Forms">
  <value>..\Resources\file_name.ext;System.Byte[], mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089</value>
</data>

It's not very hard to add one file like this but when I have to add many files it's more complicated and time-consuming than in Visual Studio where I can just open resources in designer mode, and do drag-and-drop to add new files.

No easy solution I know of, this is a rather old question but you could always use Visual Studio to add the resources and then go back to Rider. That's a solution I've found to work.
