Title: Collapse Variant Stacks in CO9?!
Post by: Bob Rockefeller on December 16, 2015, 04:04:54 pm
How in the world do you collapse variant stacks so you can just see the first in the library in CO9?

I could swear in CO8 you clicked on the variant's number in the square, but not CO9.

Hi Bob,

In the top left corner of the first variant's thumbnail, there is a ''stack icon". Clicking that will collapse or deploy the whole stack. Variants can be promoted/demoted to change their order, so you can determine which one will remain visible.

Cheers,
Bart

Indeed it is! Thanks. I thought I had lost my mind.

OK, one more.

What do you close all the variant stacks in a browser view all at once? Open them again?

Hi Bob,

Menu option: Image|Collapse All and Image|Expand All

If you need to do this very often, I suppose you can also change the keyboard shortcuts to suit your needs.

Cheers,

!!!

But that's only true when viewing an album. If you're viewing a project, for some reason, the stack icons are not shown. Odd.
