Lightroom 3.5 copy/paste settings is different, and IMHO, broken

For some reason now you cannot paste the settings you copy when you are in the loupe or grid view. Command-shift C still copies in loupe and grid, but you are no longer allowed to paste, unless you are in the develop module. You must copy them in the develop module as well, or the settings don't seem to be pasteable. Aggg - hard to describe this. Does this make sense to anyone? Is anyone else also seeing this?

I still can copy/paste Ctrl+Shift+C/V both in Grif and Loupe modes in LR 3.5 final.
When you hit Command-shift-C in grid or Loupe, does the Copy dialog box pop up?

Copy/Paste settings always includes lens corrections even if not ticked? (LR3)

I'm having trouble with copy/paste settings on LR3, in that whenever I copy settings and paste them onto other images, the settings for the Lense Corrections section are always transferred, even though they were not ticked in the copy settings dialog. Can anyone else confirm this is a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Edit: Should have mentioned, LR 3.0, Mac OSX 10.6.4, iMac i7.
Thanks,
David

I CANNOT reproduce that.
Do you have the lens correction box unchecked? or do you just have the four boxes under that hierarchy unchecked?

Hello,
How to do a copy/paste of a question (and the possible answers) in a form ?

Hi chrisweb86,
Can you please elaborate the complete workflow you are trying to perform?

Is there a problem with copy paste using Ctrl+insert and Shift+insert

This is a swing application.
initially i was using java 1.3 and the copy paste using Ctrl+insert and Shift+insert was working
then i migrated the same to java 1.5 and this functionality got messed up.

Include the following in your initialization code, before you create any components:     InputMap im = (InputMap)UIDefaults.get("TextField.focusInputMap");
    im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("control INSERT"), DefaultEditorKit.copyAction);
    im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("shift INSERT"), DefaultEditorKit.pasteAction);
    im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("shift DELETE"), DefaultEditorKit.cutAction); You'll need to add the appropriate imports, too: import javax.swing.InputMap;
import javax.swing.KeyStroke;
import javax.swing.UIDefaults;
import javax.swing.text.DefaultEditorKit; It seems they accidentally removed those bindings from JTextField under MetalLookAndFeel in JDK 1.5. They've been restored in JDK 1.6.

Why do I have to insert someone else's resume into my profile to change my copy paste settings??

I just want to use copy/paste with my mouse.
Why can't you make it just a toggle in Firefox?
Why do I have to enter someone else's resume in my user.js file??
That makes even LESS sense.
For Firefox:
Quit Firefox. If you have Quick Launch running (in Windows, an icon in the toolbar), quit that too.
Find your Firefox profile directory.
Open the user.js file from that directory in a text editor. If there's no user.js file, create one.
Add these lines to user.js:
[edit: removed personal information]
Note: The preference is site as well as protocol specific. For example:
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://www.mozilla.org")
is not the same as:
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "https://www.mozilla.org")
This is because the first uses HTTP while the second uses HTTPS.
If you want to allow multiple URLs to access the Paste operation, separate the URLs with a space. For example:
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites",
"https://www.mozilla.org https://developer.mozilla.org")

Sorry about that. You can find the addons by using:

I'm thinking maybe those sites use different text editors than other websites making copy and pasting outside of those webpages a PITA.
This site tries to explain how to do what you were trying to do earlier.
 http://www.infogears.com/cgi-bin/infogears/mozilla_firefox_copy_paste.html
 Which is to enable access to the clipboard (the place where copied items are stored) for these sites.
The addon [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/allowclipboard-helper/ AllowClipboard Helper] tries to fix this on websites like the ones you go to. But it can be tricky to setup. There's a good tip from one of the reviewer's of that addon by the guy named '''pewe''' ([https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/allowclipboard-helper/reviews/351658/ Link to review]).
So in Firefox, copying is blocked from certain text editors.
 This article tries to explain why Firefox does this:
 http://kb.mozillazine.org/Granting_JavaScript_access_to_the_clipboard
It works in Internet Explorer because they are not strict about this "Javascript access to clipboard" feature but Firefox is b/c they think it's a security risk since the website can read and copy whatever you put into the clipboard.
So long story short, certain websites use text editors that make it impossible to copy & paste stuff from them to other areas where you want to copy & paste. You could try all the stuff I mentioned above (although it's a bit nerdy) or you can save yourself the trouble/frustration and just use Internet Explorer when browsing these websites.
If you hate switching between IE & Firefox just to check a few sites, try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ie-tab-2-ff-36/ IE Tab addon]. It lets you use Internet Explorer inside Firefox by opening it in a special tab. Don't ask me how they do it. :P But it works.

Copy/Paste Settings mystery?

OK. I've searched this forum and either haven't used the appropriate phrase or it's just not covered.
I have tried and tried to use "Develop > Copy Settings..." and "Develop > Paste Settings" to transfer various settings from one image to one or more other images in the Develop module. No go.
I have also tried the "Sync..." button in the Develop Module and THAT doesn't work as expected.
The *only* way that appears to work is to change to "Auto Sync..." and work from there.
Now, please, before someone says this is a 'design feature' save your breath. If what I see is correct, then this is a bug. If I'm missing something then please educate me.
Thanks,
Bob Peters

LR is using Ctrl-C or Ctrl-V only for editing text in Keywords, Metadata, etc., it seems. There is no reason not to also use it for image changes as well. It only requires LR check what was selected before the key combination: text in a field? Or an image from filmstrip or grid?
As there are already ways of copying/templating text for metadata, keywords, etc. such as Sync button, dragging/drop keyword tags, assignment at import,etc. I'm guessing that copying and pasting changes to image are a good additional and logical use for Ctrl/Cmd-C and Ctrl/Cmd-V.
I disagree with your comparison to MS Office applications. Images in LR are like Powerpoint slides that you receive and edit via MS Powerpoint. There are direct analogs in Powerpoint for LR metaphors: slide sorter (grid), slide outline (filmstrip), slide master formats (develop pre-sets), and on and on... including inserting/updating/deleting/copying/pasting modifications
Copy and Paste of image edits should be as straightforward as RSP and Office and the most logical action for Ctrl/Cmd-C and -V ... especially because it was so elegant in RSP, the developer(s) of which Adobe brought onto the LR team.
Nothing wrong with modifiers keys (shift, alt, etc.) for the lesser used contexts of Copy and Paste operations, but get the most important/frequently used contexts using the fewest keys!
The more I use 1.0 version of LR in trial, the more convinced I am that it's still rough around the edges and a half-step backwards in productivity compared to my current workflow, though I see it's potential. I'm probably going to wait for 1.5 or Service Pack 1 or whatever the next update release is and re-evaluate then.
I think LR needs to be a little more flexible to better work the way individual photographers would like it to work instead of (what seems to be) imposing a more rigid, uniform discipline on the way all LR users work.

BUG: Copy / Paste settings

This bug has been reported in various forms. But I'd like to chime in.
I'm finding that the set of develop settings I copy are not pasting correctly onto other images. Sometimes settings I have NOT checked are pasted; other times settings I HAVE checked are being pasted. The bug does not seem to be related to the specific combination of settings checked and unchecked. Particularly I've found that copy/pasting UNCHECKED white point settings will not paste. UNCHECKED crop will paste. It's quite frustrating. I have not found a work around.
I am using LR 3.2 RC.

Mark, you can report this here. This would be most helpful. This forum is now mostly for user help rather than technical issues.

Copy/Paste difference between CS4 and CS5

Please help... I am losing my mind...
I just upgraded from CS4 to CS5 the other day and am at my wits end.
I use Adobe Illustrator for live trace and paste the paths into an embroidery software for digitizing.
In Adobe Illustrator CS4, I could copy (ctrl+c) paths in illustrator and then open the embroidery software and paste (ctrl+v) the paths.
Now that I've upgraded to Illustrator CS5, I can no longer copy/paste paths... why? The paths simply wont paste into the embroidery software any longer.
I feel like there is something very fundamental that I am missing.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Larry,
Thank you for your suggestion. If you can't tell already, I am far from an Illustrator power user...
I verified my clipboard settings looked as the attached image and it still did not seem to work. I also tried every combination of options and none of them worked either.
Work Flow: I will highlight the paths and copy them, then in the embroidery software when I hit paste, the mouse cursor turns into the processing icon for a split second like it's trying to paste, but nothing ever shows up in the embroidery software.
I reinstalled Illustrator CS4 alongside CS5 this morning, and tried the same copy/paste process with CS4 (from an illustrator file created in CS5)... works like a charm. I realize that downgrading to CS4 is not the solution. However, not being able to correctly operate the copy/paste commands is toying with my ego...

Copy/Paste Settings in Develop Module Never works first time

Only just noticed this one since upgrading from LR4 Beta to LR4.
First session developing a few shots taken over the weekend (.CR2 RAW files). When I only have a few shots, all taken in the same environment, I tend to just get the first one right and then Copy the Develop settings, and paste them onto each subsequent shot.
What happens on my 64 bit Windows 7 box - the first time I paste the settings to any shot, I get the task bar appear at the top right, which after a brief time changes to 'task completed' - but no settings have been pasted.
If I then paste the settings it works the second time.
This has happened to me consistently across around 30 shots now.
Anyone else seen this?

Copy/paste settings: a bug?

I am using LR 3.0 and made a sharpening adjustment in a photo which I wanted to copy to multiple others. In Develop module, I hit Copy, clicked on "Sharpening" and then selected a dozen others and hit Paste. Not all the others had a sharpening adjustment showing up in History. Is this a bug?

Since you are in the Develop module, I assume you are selecting the images in the filmstrip. If you do not have AutoSync on, then the paste will only affect the most selected image.
Turn on AutoSync and see what happens.

Modify Events Dates or Copy/Paste events with different date

Hi everyone,
I have about a dozen calendars in iCal. I would like to copy the events of last year exactly a year and three months later. They really are a lot, so manually doing it would be a lot of trouble.
I have been nosing around Automator solutions and it seems to be quite close to it, but not really it. I think I would have to do it per each calendar anyways, but each event seems like a lot of trouble.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Colin

It would be relatively simple with Applescript to iterate through each calendar, each event and copy the details to a new event, changing the start and end dates. There might be complications if any of the events were recurring, or had alarms.
However, even ignoring the fact that 2008 was a leap year, you cannot add exactly one year and three months to a date, because 3 months is not an exact period. What date, for example, is 1 year and 3 months after March 31st 2008? If you want the dates offset a specific number of days, it is easy, but if you want every event that was in March to be copied to June the scripting is likely to be so complicated that it would be easier to do it manually.

Why I cannot copy/paste any web links and texts? With Internet Explorer its possible, but with Firefox not.

When someone sends me a link in MSN and I try to copy it to the adress bar, it wount happen. Same is with textes in Firefox.

In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".
See "Firefox connection settings" in [[Server not found]]
You can find the connection setting here: Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy
Another possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that,.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls

Copy paste between Premiere Pro and After Effects cs5

I have seen this done but somehow it isn't working for me.
I have a Premiere Pro project and have created a dynamic link with After Effects.
I have copied a single edited clip from my timeline in Premiere and have attempted to paste it to After Effects.
I have seen that after performing a paste command in After Effects it creates a composition and an MPEG clip and also a layer for the clip.
Well - in my case - the paste only recreates the MPEG clip and nothing else. No composition... no layer. Besides I think this clip is the one from my assests and not the edited clip.
What am I doing wrong?
