How to instantiate multiple sprites without creating animation?

How to instantiate multiple sprites without creating animation?
Currently when I drag and drop 200 small sprites on my scene I get input dialog asking for creating animation.I don’t want to create any kind of animation. I simply want to see all my objects on the screen at the same place.Before this was working , now it doesn’t work any more.

I found possible solution that doesn’t work here:
http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/how-to-prevent-creating-animation-when-dragging-multiple-sprites-into-the-hierarchy.281566/
The reason it doesn’t work is because
Selection.objects.OfType() doesn’t return the selection as sprites, but as a Texture2D, so later it becomes problematic when creating the game object.

Thank you in advance.

Hold Alt while dragging the sprites
