P: Fails to merge images

When trying merge 6 images (which have plenty of overlap and merge without issue in Photoshop), Lightroom Classic CC says "Unable to merge the photos.  Please cancel and review your selection."  There is no indication why these photos cannot be merged by Lightroom.

Hi Arjun,

The merge function appears to be working ok now thanks.
I'm currently running the 8.3.1 release.
I'll let you know if any problems crop up 🙂

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Robert,

For investigating the case of merge failures, we would need the files where you are facing this.

Could you share the 6 files to keniya@adobe.com?

Thanks,

I have had that issue as well, rarely but enough to remember it happening. Would have been with versions prior to 7.3
