Multiple files for one image

I've just finished importing all my files into Capture One having finally decided that I've waited long enough Photomechanic's catalog (6 years since the demo at Photo Plus!) . The problem is that each final image ( as a Photoshop layered TIF file) might contain several image files and I might have worked on 2 or 3 Photoshop files variants on the way. Then there are various output files, usually jpegs.

I have not tried it, but I gather that Photo Supreme, by IDImager, I can stack all those files together as a single unit for each "final" image.

But C1 was not set up for this scenario so I'm looking for a way to handle this scenario in C1

I think the only option for C1 is to give all members of an image collection a unique keyword then use keyword search. Using a collection for each final image would end up with several hundred collections, so that won't work.

I wonder if some of the C1 experts here might have suggestions of a better way to handle this situation. I don't know if C! integrates with Photo Supreme.

I really like the raw conversion of C! and the ability to work after that in Photoshop and that's why I'm looking for help.

Thanks

  My suggestion is to pick one catalog - either Capture One, or Photo Supreme. Using them both together is going to be a mess.
  
  If you're really keen on PhotoSupreme, then I'd advise using Capture One sessions, and once you've finished a shoot, and done your raw processing, import it in to PhotoSupreme do the stacking there, and don't go back to Capture One (unless you want to process out a new PSD/TIF from Capture One).
  
  I do something similar, using Capture One and a program called NeoFinder (a DAM catalog system that isn't limited to photo/video files). I use Capture One sessions for each shoot, and when the shoot is wrapped I update the NeoFinder catalog for the drive that my archives are stored on.
  
  Anyway - What it sounds like you're hoping for is to use Capture One catalogs and PhotoSupreme catalogs which just seems like way more work than you need to be doing just to have images stacked. (which, by the way, you can do in Bridge or Lightroom).

  Many thanks for the reply.
  Since posting the original question, I came to the same conclusion, to use sessions for the inital processing. I now use Photosupreme for the catalog and C1 for procession sony images.
  
  Thanks again
