Merged idea
This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit FR-I-790 Stacking/Grouping images.

Please add stacking to the Library Merged

What problem do you see this solving?

Stacks, as implemented in Lightroom, would be a valuable feature. Stacks would be helpful if there were multiple versions of an image - perhaps the original and a TIFF resulting from an export to Affinity Photo or Topaz Photo AI. Stacks would also be useful to collect the images used in a panorama; the panorama could be the 'top' image and the rest behind it in the stack.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

Today after I exported a bird photo to Photo AI. It returned a TIFF.

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

No. I'm not aware of a technique to duplicate the effect of an image stack.

    Hi everyone, 
    Thank you for the suggestion - this is not something we are currently working on.

    This does not mean this is a bad suggestion or that it will never be adressed, but in an effort of transparency we want you to know that we are not currently allocating resources to solving this issue.

    We will revisit the status of this thread if and when it changes.

    Stacking would be helpful for shoots where I have a few hundred bracketed images shot for HDR processing. Especially an "auto stack by shot time" feature because that just makes the library look so much cleaner so much faster when you shoot brackets often. I also like to be able to see how many HDR images I will have before the processing and counting the number of groups is a quick way to see that. I often have brackets shot in 5 shots and in 9 shots in one shoot as well so an auto stacking feature would allow me to quickly identify the different brackets and organize them into folders. Another reason I like to stack my brackets and also make custom stacks is because I often will send bracketed photos into a company called Box Brownie for editing and they require me to tell them the number of finished outputs I expect. I can arrive at that number very quickly in Lightroom by grouping my shots together and seeing the number of groups I have.

    This would be very helpful for working with multiple versions of an image.
