P: Smart-collection Has Raw Details doesn't match raws with Denoise or Super Resolution

The smart-collection/filter criterion Has Raw Details doesn't match proprietary raw photos with Denoise or Super Resolution applied in LR 14.4, even though the Develop > Detail panel shows Raw Details checked, and even though Has Raw Details matches Denoise and Super Resolution DNGs created by LR 14.3.

 

To reproduce on LR 14.4 / Mac OS 15.5:

 

1. Download and open this catalog with six photos:

There are six perspicuously named photos: raw-details.arw, raw-details.dng, super-resolution.arw, super-resolution.dng, denoise.arw, denoise.dng. The DNGs were made by Enhance in LR 14.3, and the ARWs had the corresponding option applied in LR 14.4.

 

2. Observe that the Metadata > Detail panel shows Raw Details checked for all six photos (correct).

 

3. Observe that the smart collection Has Raw Details and the filter column Has Raw Details only match 4 photos, the three DNGs and raw-details.arw. They don't match denoise.arw and super-resolution.arw (incorrect).

    The new behavior in LR 15.0 makes logical sense. The filter and smart-collection criterion Has Raw Details was renamed to Has Raw Details Only, and it only matches a photo if it has Raw Details checked but not Denoise or Super Resolution.  (I verified this with the test catalog in the bug recipe.)

    @Srishti Bali, I just verified the bug recipe on my Windows machine. Let me know if there's anything I can do to clarify the instructions.

     

    Windows screenshots:

     

    The Develop > Detail panel shows the photo denoise.arw has Denoise and Raw Details checked, but the smart collection and filter criterion Has Raw Details isn't matching it:

     

    Whereas the Develop > Detail panel shows the photo denoise.dng has Denoise and Raw Details checked, and it does match the smart collection and filter criterion Has Raw Details:

    Hi @johnrellis

     

    Thanks for sharing the details. I tried to reproduce the issue on my Windows machine, but wasn’t able to. I’ve shared this with the product team and am currently waiting for their response. Please allow me some time to get back to you.

     

    Regards,

    Srishti
