After today's Lightroom update copy/paste settings from one image to another doesn't work correctly at my Lightroom. It just pastes some random settings, with always contrast minus 30 something. Color temperature - different as well. Some other settings such as curve copy fine. Checked copy preferences - all checkboxes are selected. Has anyone experienced same after updating?

Update: Using those shortcuts, I am able to reproduce what you are seeing Jon. I had only used the Menu commands before in my testing.  

I've logged a bug. Till fixed, your menu commands are your best workaround. 

Thanks for sticking with it and recognizing what was happening.

One other note, I did test the other day if it did it when using the menu to copy and paste instead of keyboard shortcuts. It apparently does not happen if you use the menu, only with keyboard shortcuts.

And yet it's still happening with 100% consistency. In fact, I just replicated the bug on a JPEG, so it's not just RAF files.

What would be the next troubleshooting steps? Do you want me to document another video showing you Lightroom repeating the behavior with a JPEG?

Jon,  I received your files and have tested with them for the last half hour. I have yet to duplicate what you are seeing. The subsequent pastes from image 1 to image 2 have resulted in identical edits every time

Absolutely! Do you want two fresh files or two that I’ve already tested this on?

Jon, since you and Mikhail have honed in on Fuji as a possible piece of the puzzle, would you be willing to share two of your files that exhibit the problem?

Fujifilm too. Now it's obvious it's a Fujifilm problem. Lightroom and Fujifilm are not in each other favor...

It does seem generally patterned similarly, so there seems to be some connection happening. Though it seems pretty lame if Auto applies basically the same adjustments to every image.

The photos I’ve been testing this on were all taken on a Fujifilm X-T2.
