Operation Manual

Designating an Album Pick for a Stack
The same stack may appear in several albums. Depending on the purpose of the album,
you may want a different pick image for each album. For example, a stack in a webpage
album may have one pick image, and the same stack in a book album may have a different
pick image adjusted for printing. You can designate a specific image in a stack to be an
“album pick”—the pick for the stack within a specific album. Each album can have a
different album pick for the stack.
An album pick appears with the Album Pick badge.

Arranging Images in a Stack
It can sometimes be difficult to decide which image in the stack should be the pick. In
many cases, images are so similar that more than one merits the pick position. For this
reason, you may want to have alternate images available when presenting images to
clients.
You can change the order of images within a stack to help you choose the pick and
alternates. Moving an image to the left promotes it; moving it to the right demotes it.
To promote an image in a stack
Do one of the following:
µ
Select an image, then choose Stacks > Promote, or press Command–Left Bracket ([).
µ
Drag the image over the image location you want until you see a green bar appear, then
release the mouse button.
To demote an image in a stack
Do one of the following:
µ
Select an image, then choose Stacks > Demote, or press Command–Right Bracket (]).
µ
Drag the image over the image location you want until you see a green bar appear, then
release the mouse button.
Adding Images to and Removing Images from Stacks
You can add images to and remove images from stacks at any time. You can drag images
into or out of a stack, and you can also drag images from one stack to another.
