Set different main version

Post by sjusko »

Hi, how can I set different main version for more than one image? I know only for one image - small star on place holder menu.

A main version is specific for each version set. I don't see how you could change the main version for more than one image in one go without pointing out each file individually. So the answer is: you can't.

Hert, what if the user wanted to make the change based on a placeholder. For example, make all files with the "album" placeholder assigned the "main" version of the the version set. Why would this not be something PSU could be enabled to do?

Similarly (I think) ...

Suppose I have a whole set of images. I decide to create a black and white version of each of them for a project, using an automated process in Photoshop, and I want to associate each of the new B&W files with the original images as versions. How can I get all of these Black and White versions to end up in a custom-created "Black and White" placeholder? I don't see how this can be done except by reassigning the placeholder for each image individually.

Whereas with the facility to apply a version placeholder change to a whole set of images, this could be done in a single operation.
