How to set a default library?

So my question is this: I have a library that is full (I spring between multiple projects) and when I want to try to save an asset to a specific library, I'm not given the chance to do so. The asset automatically tries to save to the last library (as you stated) and I receive a notice, "Could not save into [folder]" but I don't see anywhere to move this asset to the library I want it to go to.

    Create a new library. It will become your default library.

      This doesn't work for me, and I can't figure out how to rresolve it. No matter what I do, everything is saving into the 2nd to last library I created, NOT the most reent one. Yes, I can move the images after I've saved them, but it's quite annoying to have to change each one. I feel like previously, we were able to assign a particular library as the default. That makes it much easier when you have to jump between projects.

        I just tried something else. I went back to the main Adobe Stock page and started a new search. NOW, it looks like it's updating the default as I swap libraries (keeping the previously selected library). I absolutley could not get this behavior to work prior to this.


        Thank you for this information @michellen78583256! I do think there is a bug here as I saw a similar issue today and then could not reproduce it immediately after. My colleague @Vani_100 is going to look into this further and may reach out to you for more information.

        Assets do not save to the last library used by the user, my Adobe stock consistantly defaults to saving in a folder I haven't used for over a year (maybe 2 years), everytime I use Adobe Stock I have to change it to a library I named Adobe Stock (which is the only library I save to from Adobe Stock), but everytime I logout and back in it's back to saving in a default library, which I can't change by any method.

         

        I'm surprised there isn't an option to set default or use last library, which would please both set of users.

          I am surprised it has been over a year and a simple way to define the default library is still not available.
