Deletion of stacked files

[Van_Epscheuten]

I am trying to delete a stack of files. In the past, PSE (15 on Win10 64 bit) used to ask me whether I wanted to delete the top file only, or the entire stack. For some reason, this behavior has changed: I now have to delete each file in the stack individually. I would like to revert to the previous situation. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Rik,

I can still delete all or only the top of file with the delete command.

If I want to keep only the top of file and delete all other files, I do use the 'flatten stack' command.

I might add that my stacked files are not recognized by PSE as being a stack, although there is a stack icon overlay in the top right corner of the thumbnail. If I right-click such a file, both the Stack and the Flatten Stack options are unavailable (greyed out).

In additon: I can't stack separate files toghether either.

It sounds like you are in the adaptive view. If so, you need to be in the Details view. Try pressing Ctrl+D.

No, I am in the Details view.

Hi Rik,

Few queries:

• Can you please tell what file types you are working on.
• As you can see Stack icon, is your catalog a converted one? If yes, then from which version to which version.
• Also, please share the screenshot of media where you are saying, stack icon is visible but Stack options are greyed out in context menu.

Regards,

Nidhi

My stupid error! It's not a stack, it's a version set!

Not a stupid error.  In this regard, stacks and version sets should act consistently.  They don't.
