No way to copy raw adjustments?


Recommended Posts

I was excited to try the new non-destructive raw edition in Develop Persona.   I edited a raw file, got good results, hunted around for the way to copy/paste all my adjustments to the other files from that shoot - and found there's apparently no way to do this!   Is this still true in the latest release or am I missing something obvious?

Perhaps this will help:

There is a way to apply the edits done to a raw file to others. First open a raw file and process it (develop it) to give an embedded or linked layer, not a pixel layer. Now use the  move tool to select the layer in the Photo Persona and record a macro. The macro will consist of you hitting the Develop button in the Context toolbar and then hitting the Develop button in the Develop persona. Name the macro after the file name or some such thing, mine look like 5634 raw Develop. Now you can use that macro to process the new raw files or you can use it to Batch Process a bunch of raw files using the File > New Batch Job... .

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

I'll try that, thanks.  Have never used Macros so this workaround seems a bit tedious but maybe it  won't seem so bad once I've tried it.
