Question

PSE auto stack raw + jpg (should be jpg + raw)

Hi together

I'm using all PSE since 15years actually still PSE15. The feature to import jpg + raw directly from the camera with autostack is great. BUT, I would like to sort the stacks that jpg is always the first picture in stack. Since there are no options for autostack it is always a lot of manual work to change the order, also there is no keyboard shortcut available for reorder stacks I always have to proceed via menu or mouse right click>stack>set picture as first image in stack. If you have a lot of new images it’s always a lot of time waste. So if I could change the order during autostack would be great. Is there any chance?

    This problem still appears to exist with Elements 2020.  Adobe, please address this issue.

    You are right, I don't see the point of setting the raw version on top. No advantage, only drawbacks.

    Is there any chance?

    I remember posting a similar request in the feedback forum when that feature was introduced. No votes from other users, no answers by Adobe. I don't think they'll change the top of stack, but if I find the original post in the feedback forum, I'll request a preference option...

    I have changed my workflow. I no longer shoot raw + jpeg.

    Edit:

    I found that feedback post:
