Question

Group into stack is disabled

Hi all,

I'm new to Lightroom and was trying to stack few pictures but the option is grayed out. If I'm doing something incorrect, can you guys correct/ help me?

All files are in single folder and I tested them on following options:

  • All JPGs/ TIFFs/ NEF
  • All in local drive
  • All in Cloud folder

Setup Details:

  • OS: Windows 11
  • Software: Lightroom desktop (version 9.1)

I'm also attaching a screenshot for reference

Hey, @Rajesh_Dixit3843. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out. 

 

The Local tab is a direct view of your local files on the external drive. You can group images into a stack in the Lightroom Cloud tab in All Photos and within Albums. 

 

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!
