P: Enable import of Virtual Copies between catalogs

Description: I use one LR catalog as a "working" platform for sorting/editing/deleting imagery, then import "accepted imagery" to another catalog as a "final", clean library/repository (where they're organized).  During this process Virtual Copies of images do not import to the second catalog.

 

Request: Please enable Virtual Copies to be imported from one LR catalog to another.

Value: Enable retention of all work, creative ideas and further organizing of content.

 

[Currently using LR Classic 14.0.1]

"Please enable Virtual Copies to be imported from one LR catalog to another."

 

This is already implemented. Rather than using the Import command, use the menu command File > Import From Another Catalog:
