Hello,
It seems that "make substack" require the list of image index to be
sorted, when used with the "delete" option.
Running the macro below demonstrate the problem.

newImage("TestStack", "16-bit random", 64, 64, 16);
run("Label...", "format=0 starting=1 interval=1 x=15 y=5 font=18 text=[]
range=1-16");
// substack (only make copy)
run("Make Substack...", "  slices=5,10,3");
// this works


newImage("TestStack_with_delete", "16-bit random", 64, 64, 16);
run("Label...", "format=0 starting=1 interval=1 x=15 y=5 font=18 text=[]
range=1-16");
// Substack with delete
run("Make Substack...", "delete slices=5,10,3");
// Does not work. Extract (and delete) slices 5,10,1 !!!!

There are obvious work around but the error is completely silent and I
lost a few hairs before I found it.
Cheers
