P: Droplets no longer work with export presets (CC 2015.4)

Export preset where you chose "Open in other application" and you have selected a droplet (I have a folder with many droplets) does not work, because the droplet utilized by photoshop is not the one chosen in the export preset

Btw at least the droplet used is the correct one at least, but it's not applied to all the photos so it's kind of useless.. do we have to wait 2 other months for another update? 😞 Hope not!

Ehm no John, it's not fixed! If you export more than one photo the droplet is used only in the first photo not the whole batch!!!

I am exporting from LRCC and selecting my droplet in the Post Processing section of the export folder and the droplet opens in my toolbar, but does not run.  Lost an hour today messing around with this.  Not loving how much time I lose to CC bugs only to have to find a thread like this.  Adobe should recognize the immense inconvenience and expense we are all going to while they test their software on us.  My bill is not for a 'beta' version of this software so it really is unacceptable.

We have tested and identified this issue. A fix will be included with the next release of Lightroom.

In the original topic, Robert reported he is using CC 2015.4 on OS X 10.11.

I've created two actions in Photoshop - one for landscape and one for portrait photos.
I created a third action that does a few things, and then using the conditional argument it chooses one of the first two.
I made a droplet of the third action.
When I drop files onto the droplet it works fine.
When I export in LR and ask it to run the droplet after export - it says:
The command “If” is not currently available.

This is bad, its part of a series of problems I have been having. Adobe's quality is getting unreliable.
