Lightroom unable to photo stack / “Open as Layers in Photoshop” not working on Mac

Hello I am hoping some one can help me. I photo stack alot and recently I have found Light room will not allow me to do so. It will not allow me to pick two raw photos to merge to layers in photoshop. I have done this many times in the past; with updates have they taken this option away? I have a Mac.

Thanks

    Hi ​@ride+and+hike 

     

    Thanks for reaching out, and apologies for the delayed response. I’m hoping the issue has been resolved by now. If you're still experiencing it, could you please share a few additional details to help us investigate further?

    • Your operating system and version.
    • The versions of Photoshop and Lightroom you're using.
    • Whether the same issue occurs with the latest versions of Photoshop and Lightroom.
    • A few screenshots or, preferably, a short video demonstrating the issue.

    These details will help us better understand and reproduce the problem.

    Thanks, Srishti Bali | Community & Engagement Strategist, Digital Imaging | Adobe
