Hi, first time poster here but long time users. Major issue with my work flow today. I normally use the x/y compare view in lightroom to do close compares of my images and to remove the ones I don't want. Up until now this has worked well by just right clicking on the image in the compare view I want to remove and selecting the remove option. However, on using this today I became aware that it was removing the opposite image. I have been through a long support call, including resetting all my preferences only to find that the support analyst had the same issue on his machine. He refused to escalate the issue and told me to post it here and ask for it on the wish list. However, as this is something that was working and is now broken and I imagine is part of others work flow I think this should be looked at urgently. Fortunately I spotted this in time to restore the incorrectly removed images from backup, but others might not be so lucky.
In Lr 5.7.1 it works the way you describe it to work properly.
I suggest you post over at the Photoshop Family Feedback forum, LrC section.

Thanks, I have rolled back to 9.3 and it works as expected so definitely a problem with 9.4

On my system the Candidate always get removed no matter what image was selected or what image, Side, you right clicked on.
I'm going to test this on Lr 5.7.1.
