When delete photo how to display next photo

[camerafun18]

In the PSE2019 organizer, when I click the delete button to delete a photo from the catalog and hard disk, it switches to the newest overall photo.  How can I make it display the NEXT photo in the catalog immediately after the deleted one (like in PSE8), and not jump to the end?

It's especially frustrating when I'm viewing a specific date range, then after deletion it jumps forward in time to the newest photo that's waaaay past that date range.  I did search these forums and the pdf but couldn't find anything, thanks.

Could you please mention the exact steps you are performing, after which you run into this kind of situation? We're unable to reproduce it at or end.

Yes, there has been a few similar questions with any Elements versions, and I have never been able to reproduce myself.

In the meantime, consider another workflow to browse an cull images.

Instead of deleting individually, mark files individually, which can be made either:

- by assigning a common temporary tag like 'tobedeleted'

- hiding the file

- assigning a given star rating

After marking a number of files, say 50 or 100, select those files and delete the batch in one operation. Batch deletion takes time but you are more efficient in your culling process.
