Creating Stacks Automatically When importing images, you can have Aperture automatically group them into stacks. To set Aperture to stack images automatically during import: 1 Connect your camera or card reader to your computer. The Import pane and Import dialog appear, displaying the images on your camera or card reader. 2 Drag the Auto-Stack slider to set the time interval for successive shots in a stack. Click these buttons to open or close stacks. Click here to stack selected images. Click here to unstack all stacks. Drag the slider to stack images. Click here to split a stack. The images in the dialog are stacked according to the slider setting. Inspect the stacks to determine if the time interval should be shortened or lengthened. Note: You can also manually select images in the Import dialog and stack and unstack them using the same commands and procedures you use to stack images in the Browser. 3 Specify the other import options you want, then click Import All. For more information about importing your photos, see Chapter 4, "Importing Images," on page 109. After Aperture imports and stacks your images, you can review each stack to determine if the automatic stacking meets your approval. If you prefer, you can also automatically stack images after importing them. 222 Part II Photo Editing
