[Bug] Pasting develop settings from P2010 to P2012 reset sliders

I may have found a nasty bug.
I wanted to show how amazing is the new clarity slider between two versions of the same image, one with Process 2010 and another with the new one.
Realizing that I slightly changed color between the two (white balance for sure and maybe some other color treatment settings), I decided to copy those two settings from the P2012 one and paste on the P2010 one.
1. Copy settings from the fist image
2. These are the settings for the P2012 image
3. These are the settings of the P2010 version BEFORE pasting settings from the newer one
4. These are the ones AFTER the paste.
Basic settings have been reset just by pasting White Balance and Treatment (color).
Process version was set on 2012 without asking to do so.
You can get the same result even by copying the White Balance alone, which is not a P2012-dependent setting.

Lr 4 Beta always syncs process version when doing a sync. When syncing a 2010 to 2012 image, the Basic panel settings will be converted. This is the reason why this is happening.
That said, we're investigating more fine-grained approaches going forward.

  • I have a dual monitor setup.  When I paste develop settings from one image to another, Lightroom switches the active window.

    Strange problem.  Lightroom 5.5.  Windows 8.1. Dual monitor setup.
    I'm processing a large batch of photos.  I have Monitor #1 set as my main develop window, with Monitor #2 set only to display a larger version of the image I'm working with. If I copy the develop settings off of one image and try to paste them onto another image, Lightroom will switch from Monitor #1 to Monitor #2 as the main develop window, and will not display anything on Monitor #1.
    If I then try to paste develop settings onto another image on Monitor #2, LR will then display a larger version of the image I'm working with on Monitor #1.
    To work the way I want to, I have to continually drag my develop window back to Monitor #1 every time I try to paste develop settings onto a new image. How can I make this stop?

    I just tried what I think you’re saying you’re doing and I don’t have the problem with LR 5.5 on Windows 7 SP 2.
    Does the same thing happen whether you use the key shortcuts vs the Settings / Copy/Paste options on the menu?
    I ask this because if you’re using the keyboard shortcuts, maybe you have some display-manager program that has bound itself to the Ctrl-Shift-V (paste settings) to the function of move-to-other-monitor which would do at least part of what you describe.
    You can also test this theory by doing a Ctrl-Shift-V with an application other than LR as the active window and see if it moves.  I suppose Ctrl-Shift-C might also play into it so try both of these hot-key combinations with a program that isn’t LR.
    If none of this sheds any light on the situation, then give a more detailed description of the low-level functions you’re doing to accomplish the copy-paste of settings, so someone else could replicate the steps exactly.
    Specific detailed steps, like:
    left-click on source photo’s thumbnail in the filmstrip
    press Ctrl-Shift-C to copy the settings
    click Check-None
    enable the white-balance and calibration checkboxes
    click Ok
    left-click on destination photo's thumbnail in the filmstrip
    click on Settings / Paste Settings in LR’s menus to paste the settings to the selected photo

  • Cannot paste develop settings to multiple images in Lightroom 3

    I have just started using Lightroom 3 and am only able to paste develop settings to one image.  If I select multiple images it will only paste the setting to the active image, not all selected images. I never had this issue with Lightroom 2.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

    Hi Dorin
    I think the complaint is still valid - there should be no reason that you should have to toggle to Auto Sync before being able to paste your develop settings to the entire target selection, not just the active image in the selection. It should work with that switch toggled to Sync mode as well -- there is obviously a bug here.
    I am having the identical problem as the original poster. I am using LR 3.3 on a Mac, OS 10.6.5, in other words I cannot get develop settings to copy to all my selected target images while I am in the Develop module, only the active image within the target images, without toggling the Sync button to Auto Sync.
    This even after the release notes for 3.3 say they have corrected for the problem "Paste Settings did not apply to all images in the Develop module Filmstrip" (see http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2010/12/lightroom-3-3-and-camera-raw-6-3-now-avail able.html)
    This is silly. How do we ask Adobe to correct this bug?

  • Import development settings from another computer

    Hey,
    At home I still have the trial version (I wait for 4.2 to see if it will be much faster before buying it) and today I do some photo development at work (we also have 4.1 version).
    What I'd like to know is it it's possible to import the processings settings of each photos to my own catalog ????
    Here is how I did my work:
    At home my raws are on an external USB drive and I import my pictures from this disk: path is I:\Mes photos\<subject + date of the photoshoot>
    My Lightroom catalog is in it's default path (user profile, my pictures).
    At work, I put my photos on a temp director c:\MyRawPictures and import them into lightroom.
    Now how can I export the development settings from the lightroom at work and import them in my home setup ?
    I saw a menu "import from another catalog". can I use this one ? If yes, do I need to copy the "Lightroom catalog" folder ?
    Thanks.

    From the computer which has the images developed you invoke the command "export as catalog". You can optionally include both the previews and the images themselves ( called 'negatves'). Write this to a destination from where the other receiving comp can get it, e.g. a portable external drive or shared network.
    From the receiving comp you invoke "import from another catalog" and you choose this exported folder.
    You can limit this to small parts of your catalog, so no need to export and import a total catalog.

  • Importing development settings from JPG

    Hello everyone,
    I have a JPG file that I've created in Lightroom from a RAW file.
    My computer has crashed at some point, and I lost everything, but I managed to save the original RAW file.
    Is it possible to recover the development settings from the JPG file, in order to re-edit the orignal RAW file (so I could make changes right from where I left off)?
    Thanks for all of your help in advance,
    Dan

    Right. I since amended that on Phil Harvey's recommendation, but to be frank, I don't understand it all perfectly, so bear with me.

    To your question, if I have the same settings tools - the Temp starts with 0 and can move between -100 to +100.
    This is what's known as "incremental temperature" adjustment, not raw (kelvin), i.e. standard baked rgb file (e.g. tiff, jpeg).

    I assume you mean sliders. What's on the camera calibration profile drop-down menu?

    I noticed that when working on a dng file, there is a slight change in the calibration profiles (no "white or "highlights" and there is a "fill light" option. Maybe other changes, but haven't really taken a real close look at it).
    fill light is for photos utilizing process version 2010 (or 2003), i.e. legacy process versions. whites & highlights are for PV2012 photos (current process version).

    Why do you think that having the lens correction option available is a bad thing?
    Using profile-based lens corrections is a bad thing if baked rgb file (e.g. tiff, jpeg) already has lens corrections applied, or is cropped... Such is the reason Adobe does not support profile-based lens corrections for rgb files, only raw files.
    I'm guessing you weren't actually using profile-based lens corrections on your tiff, right? e.g.
    As I said, it is possible to finesse metadata such that raw (profile-based) lens corrections can be applied to rgb files, but one needs to be careful, since it could make things worse instead of better (e.g. applying lens corrections when already applied, or applying them wrongly due to crop). I thought at first this is what was happening to you, but I think now I was wrong - what do you think?

  • Can't Paste Develop Settings to Multiple Photos

    I'm running Lightroom V3.2, and I have about 100 pictures I took at a concert.  I tweaked the exposure, brightness, etc, and the noise reduction, and copied the develop settings.  If I paste the settings onto any one photo, the paste works great.  However, I want to paste these settings to all 100 photos at once.  In the filmstrip, I select multiple photos, and no matter how I paste it (typically with the big paste button on the lower left of the develop screen) the settings are applied to only the right-most selected photo in the filmstrip.  I've tried everything I can think of but I can't get the settings to apply to multiple photos at once.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    That did it, thanks for the speedy reply!!!
    Wow, is that functionality confusing though...

  • Paste Develop Settings into multiple images ?

    I develop a particular image that has similar light and exposure to many that follow, so I want to past those develop settings into the several images that follow. I highlight the several remaining images at the bottom shown thumbnails. I paste the develop setting. The setting seems to be applied to only the LAST image that I selected. Is this behaviour as expected?
    I've only been able to manually paste the development settings into each of the images, ONE AT A TIME, which is quite tedious, compared to being able to do it to a group of images at once.
    I would prefer to be able to paste the development setting to multiple images in one fell swoop.

    Or use Auto Sync mode in Develop. Select multiple images in filmstrip or in Library's grid, then in Develop Ctrl/Cmd (Win/Mac) click the Sync button and it'll change to Auto Sync. Once it's on, it stays on. I almost always work this way - YMMV.
    The modal thing is no big deal, just smoke thrown up by Aperture fans who're smart enough to spot differences and creative enough to twist them into a way of justifying their fanboyism. Library works on cached data, Develop accesses the original data. Once you get into Auto Sync, and learn your keyboard shortcuts, modal is nearly irrelevant.

  • How to efficently apply development settings from DNG to RAW?

    Hi,
    two years ago, after switching to only shoot RAW, I let LR convert my RAWs to DNG on import (app. 1.000 pictures), but later stopped that again due to the slow process and continued to work on my original RAWs only. Now I'm left with 1.000 developed DNGs and 10.000 RAWS.
    What would be the most efficiant way to transfer the development setting of my DNGs to the correspinding RAWs?
    Best,
    Max

    Hi Max
    The only way I can think of is manual process e.g. import the raw files then select the DNG and corresponding raw and synchronize settings.
    If batches of the DNG’s have shared develop settings you might be able to speed up the process by choosing a representative DNG and then synchronizing a whole bunch of raw files.

  • Copy/Paste Develop Settings for multiple images

    I'm trying to update some settings on multiple images. In Develop mode, I start by making the corrections to a single image, and then click the "Copy ..." button. I then select multiple images in the Filmstrip and click "Paste". This works just fine, but only on the 1st image/highlighted image, and not the whole selection. Am I doing something wrong here? Shouldn't I be able to update multiple images, at once, like a batch process?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Lee Jay
    How do you know this is on purpose? It seems like a bug to me.
    See this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2951457
    If your reasoning was correct, how come the settings do paste to the entire target selection and not just the active image when the toggle in the lower right hand side of the screen is switched to Auto Sync?
    Would love to hear more of your insight, because this is really confusing me.
    Best

  • How to revert copied and pasted Develop Settings to raw files.

    Using Bridge 2.1.1.9 and just discovered this handy workflow scheme.
    Was wondering if there was a way to go back to the previous setting after applying a Develop Setting copied from another file within Bridge. There doesn't seem to be or at least I haven't found a "Command Z" option within Bridge.

    Good points, Omke.
    I've duplicated my Pentax PEF's and they do retain the .xmp embedded edits without being converted to DNG.
    And I do save custom named edits using the traditional method in ACR, but you should see the list I've accumulated. It's huge. Most have come about due to my experimentation with target scenes I've created to come up with some setting that could be applied to a series of scenes lit with available light to make them all look like they came out of the same camera. I don't own expensive studio lights. I shoot landscapes and animals at my local park.
    I just love the immediacy of copying and pasting .xmp exported tweaked edits from another image and applying to a series of scenes shot under the same outdoor light. I have my image thumbnails sprawled out in Bridge so I can get an overall view of their differences. It would be nice to revert back to the previous .xmp exported edit after a copy and paste.
    But it doesn't really matter anyway cuz most just need a tweak to color temp, clarity and vibrance adjust to get them to look alike with regards to color. Exposure differences are far more time consuming and require opening each one in ACR.

  • Lens Correction Profiles: Pasting develop settings in bridge yields inconsistent crop

    Hello Everyone,
    I recently discovered lens correction profiles which have been a real benefit to me in my most recent batch of images shot at 16mm on a Canon 5d MII. The lens distortion isn't always spot on, but it is a huge headstart most of the time.
    I bracket photos for HDR and will apply all my crop settings to one image in the bracketed series and afterwards psate the settings onto all the others in the series. This works great.
    However, once I started using Lens Correction Profiles, when I paste the crop setting onto the subsequent images, the crop is in a different position. I was completely baffled. But after some fiddling around, I noticed that if I manually open each of the subsequent images, remove the crop, uncheck and recheck the Lens Correction Profile, and reapply the crop, it is consistent with the first. This leads me to believe that somewhere in the Paste Setting sequence, it is doing the crop out of order. (As if it is cropping the image and THEN applying the lens correction--which yeild different results.)
    (As a item of note, when I mean cropping, I use the automatic crop obtained by highlighting the entire area of the image after applying lens corrections so as to only crop out the grey areas acquired by shifting the image around while still maintaining aspect ratio.)
    Is there any way we can get the pasting to paste so as to make these subsequent images identical to the original image? Or am I missing something?
    Relevant Specs:
    OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
    Bridge 4.0.4.2
    Adobe Camera Raw 6.4.0.139
    Photoshop 12.0.3 x64
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Normally, when you apply a lens correction profile, there shouldn't be any visible gray areas around the border of the image.
    Are you saying this is not the case?
    Are you making additional distortion or keystoning adjustments (e.g., in the manual tab)?

  • Copy-Pasting crop settings also affects other Develop settings?

    I noticed the following behavior in my Lightroom 4.3. Let's say I have two almost identical pictures. Both have their Develop settings reset, no keywords and store some GPS info (so in the flimstrip both pictures have a "geotag" icon overlaid on them and no other icons).
    Now, I go to Develop screen and crop the first picture. I leave other Develop settings untouched. This makes a "crop" icon to appear on the first picture in the filmstrip. All works as it should.
    After that I ask Lightroom to copy the Develop settings from the first picture. In the selection dialog I leave everything unchecked besides the crop settings. I.e. I want to copy crop settings only, nothing else. Then I immediately paste these settings over the second picture. Expectedly, the second picture gets cropped in exactly the same way as the first one. It also acquires a "crop" icon in the filmstrip. However, in addition to the crop icon it also gets a "+/-" icon, as if some other Develop settings got changed by the paste as well. A quick inspection shows that all Develop settings (besides crop, of course) remain at their default values.
    I wonder why the second picture acquires that "+/-" icon. Is there some hidden Develop setting that gets affected by my paste, even though I explicitly asked Lightroom to copy crop settings only? Or is it just a user-interface-level bug?

    I reported this strange behaviour a year ago already for LR 3.4: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom_3_4_1_wrong_activation_of_ badge_has_delevop_adjustments. LR 4.3 seems to have the same bug (at least I think it is a bug).
    As far as I know, no "real" development settings are affected by this bug, however an internal flag for "has development settings" seems to be set when the "+/-"-badge appears. This means that such images are found by smart collections with "has adjustments = true". So it is not just an user-interface-level bug.

  • How can I copy develop settings on multiple images from one folder to another?

    I have a bunch of Fuji X-T1 raw images that I have converted to DNG form. Once Lightroom supports X-T1 raw images directly, I would like to replace the DNG files by the corresponding raw files (which I have saved) without having to redo all of my edits.
    I've tried an experiment with a NEF file, which Lightroom supports: If I convert it to a DNG file, import the DNG file, then replace the DNG file with the corresponding NEF file, Lightroom still thinks the file is named DNG. This behavior makes me nervous.
    So what I would like to do is to import all of the Fuji raw files, then transfer the develop settings from each DNG file to the corresponding raw file, then finally archive and delete the DNG files.
    Is there any way to do this other than by hand? That is, if I have a folder with a few hundred DNG files, is there any way to tell Lightroom to take the develop settings of every file in the folder and transfer them to the correspondingly named file in the folder of raw files?
    If not, can someone suggest to me a way of accomplishing this that does not involve copying and pasting the data for every image by hand?
