Rather than increasing the number of options, what I’d suggest is something like this: On a Mac, it apparently also has an option to copy only global adjustments (sadly, cropping is considered a global adjustment). Right now, PL2 copies everything or only local adjustments. Your approach works fine if you have just two images and you only do this once.Īnyway, this post is not about presets it’s about improving copying corrections. Even my proposal for using a preset is better. Sigi’s virtual copy method is way better, but it’s still a clumsy work-around. Your approach would require a ton of really boring, imprecise work. I might have a dozen images where I want to use a common set of some of the settings. There’s really no need for the clumsy interstitial screen of Lightroom. Remember palettes in PhotoLab are very easy to turn on/off or reset. When copying over settings from another image, it’s very easy to go through the target image deleting or changing the setting post copy. I understand your question though – when I first started using PhotoLab, the different workflow confused me as well. Clicking those endless Adobe boxes one by one is what is inefficient. After a few weeks of work, you’ll have amazing presets which will accelerate every session. Every event can get its own folders and presets. The preset can then be edited to include or not include certain aspects and then reused.

You can create a preset almost instantly from any image. As a work-around that I haven’t tried, I believe one can create a preset of the corrections that one might want to share and then apply it to whatever images one might want to share the corrections with.
