Export LUT not saving custom adjustments

[DM1]

Adjustment effects added to image are not exported when using Export lut. The exported lut has no effect when applied to original image.

When the lut is created using inferred lut, the effect is recorded correctly.

Examples here:

Can you please export and send me the LUT that you created and also confirm the adjustments you made when you created the LUT file

The adjustments were: Curves, Levels and HSL adjustments.
Afphoto file and LUTs attached. I have attached two 'exported LUTs’, neither worked but had different file sizes. As stated, the inferred lut provided the same effect as the 3 adjustments.

Photos show settings layers and settings used for adjustments. I have only tried this with .cube and .3dl LUTs.

Looking in the LUTs shows the Exported Lut has no data recorded whereas the inferred lut does contain data points. The inferred lut was saved as a preset and renamed accordingly.

Why do you have the LUTs Adjustments in a Group in that .afphoto file?

Not sure what you mean Walt. The Group contains the adjustment layers. The LUTs are sitting above.🙂

Sorry. I meant to type "Why do you have the Adjustment layers in a Group?"

That's unusual, I think, and might cause problems. Try ungrouping them.

That was when testing for OP's initial question regarding saving a group of adjustments as an asset. I never bothered  to remove the group. however the group folder should be pass through and 'should' not effect export. I'll give it a quick test though to see if it makes a difference.🙂

EDIT: Removing group has no effect. Still not working. The data is not being saved (as shown when comparing the last two photos attached above)

I am also having a similar experience. I am inferring a LUT from an adjusted image using the LUT adjustment layer. Works fine. The inferred lut does a good job. However, I can't export it. If I export a LUT, the LUT contains no adjustments. It just ends up being an identity LUT. I have tried merging the LUT adjustment layer as well as leaving it as its own layer, but in both cases, the exported LUT is just the identity LUT.

I suspect Export LUT has a bug but no word back from @DWright yet to confirm.

In the meantime if you want to reuse your inferred lut on other images, you can still save it as a Preset. It will then be available under 'LUT' adjustments (as distinct from All Adjustments).

Done above🙂

I agree. The iPad issue to me appears quite straightforward. It’s easily replicated. When you open a lut created with the Export LUT command it does not contain any data. Hence it’s extremely small size. It used to work so shouldn’t be too hard to fix. 
It’s a bit disappointing that mods have not responded in some way after having requested (and been provided) relevant samples. I guess there's a lot more pressing issues going on at the moment.

Thanks, corrected to Desktop (Win+Mac)

Further testing reveals Export lut working provided you don’t group adjustments and or filters. But, shouldn’t Grouped folder be ‘pass through'?

Where in the layer stack is the grouped set of adjustments?

Is there anything else in the group?

[DM1]

Hi Walt, I simply added a couple of random adjustments and a filter, adjusted setting in context menus. The adjustment filter layers were siting above the pixel image layer. Export lut as test lut and applied test lut to original image. All good, same result as filters and adjustments. Then I deleted test lut layer Next I grouped the filters and adjustments. Same position in layer studio as before and repeated the Export lut as test2 lut. 
Loaded test2 lut and no effect on image.
Only difference between the two LUTs being that the adjustments/filters were grouped for test2.

Conclusion being Lut export is not reading grouped adjustments?
