Delete pictures from Preview??

[jordiborras]

hi there,

When you are visualizing some pictures in the Preview, and you want to delete some as you see them, when you press command+delete, they are deleted from the list on the right of the preview (slides), but not deleted from thew hard disk....!
Anyone knows if there is a way to delete pictures while you see them in the Preview other than doing it with "right button+move to trash"?
This is so annoying, it should be a short cut to be able to delete pictures right away as you see them, and you know that you don't like them...

Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks a lot!

No. Preview is a file viewer, not a file manager.

That's weird. I just opened a few photos with Preview and used the Command + Delete keys to delete them. They were moved from the folder where they resided to the Trash.

you have to be kidding me... jajajajajaja

anyone have an idea of what's going on?

thanks again...

I kid you not. I even moved them to the Desktop, originally they were elsewhere, opened them with Preview, used the ⌘ + Delete keys and they moved to Trash again.

Maybe it's because you are using the Right click + Move to Trash. Try the Command + Delete keys.

yes yes, I'm using command+delete. the pictures disappear from the list of slides at the right, but not frmo the folder. The folder is Pictures and it's not blocked or protected.

I don't wich setting should I change to fix it...

Just now I realized that in the Finder doesn't work either. For example: I create a folder in the desktop, I copy a picture inside this folder, I select this picture, I press command+delete... and NOTHING moves!

I just don't get it...
