Adjustments not copying

I have discovered that, whether I copy Adjustments with the context menu or with the keyboard shortcut (Cmd-Shift-C)…

… the menu items on the target image are not available via the context menu items, only. But they are available via the keyboard shortcut (Cmd-Shift-V) and even that doesn’t always work

Can anyone confirm this?

Joanna,
I’ve just tried this on the Windows version of PL8 (PL8.1.0. Build 434) and PL7 (PL7.10.0 Build 287).

With both of these I created a VC and Reset its corrections, copied the settings from the Master and tried to Paste selected corrections… I was able to do this OK with both the shortcut (Ctrl-Alt-V) and with the right-click context menu with both the versions of PL I tested.

Thanks, but I am using Mac. I will add that, although the context menu doesn’t show the appropriate items, the main Image menu does.

I’m on Windows and use Copy/‘Paste selected corrections’ via the context menu very often. No such problem here with PL7/8 (never), so it’s probably specific to some Macs.

Which is why I am seeking feedback from Mac users

Not sure if I am understanding this properly or not, but I did the same thing as Wlodek but on Mac and with the same results.

@Joanna – I am on macOS 14.7 and am experiencing the same behavior you report.

I am on PL 8.1.0.35 (laptop) and this is indeed new behavior. I’m not in my studio right now, but will check to see if I have an earlier PL 8 version to test this behavior.

@Joanna

On my studio machine I am getting the same behavior too! This hurts. :slightly_frowning_face:

Looking back, build 28 had the correct functionality.

@rsilber

Thanks Bob. I just reverted to build 32 and that works OK as well. But build 35 is whacko.

I have filed a report, citing this thread.

Quite puzzling: re 8.1.0 build 35. Today, on my studio machine, the copying and pasting functionality was working as expected (it wasn’t yesterday). On my laptop today, the functionality is still not working.

Both machines are running 8.1.0 build 35. Both machines also have 8.0 build 32 installed. The riddle is, why the difference in function? :thinking:

Yes, I am having the same problem on my Mac Studio M2Max. This is a critical function that worked so brilliantly in previous versions of Photolab. Now, not being able to copy and paste perspective corrections to multiple bracketed shots for architectural photography is devastating to the workflow…

@Joanna Hello Joanna, This issue will be fixed in the next version (8.2).
Thanks for your patience.
