P: Lightroom Classic: synched brush not at the same place on a cropped copy ??

Hello,

 

I just found an issue on the latest LR version:

if you select all parameters except the reframing when synching parameters to a virtual copy which is differently reframed, the brush is not copying to the right place 🙂

    @John_R_Ellis 

    I'm amazed that there is no LR update yet to fix this awful bug.

    There are also similar concerns with the spot removal tool which during sync no longer uses the same sampling area !!

    Where is the best place to report bugs, here or on

    https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom/bd-p/lightroom?page=1&sort=latest_replies&filter=all

    What is the difference?


    It is very annoying, with each release, some faults are corrected but new or old ones reappear, leaving us always with  a badly functioning tool for which we have to pay. This is amazing!

    Here is an example with a cyan graduated filter on the left and a cyan brushstroke just in front of the model in the original version.


    Second version is a cropped virtual copy and the result after synching everything except cropping.


    It often happens to present a photo in another format and copying edits to a cropped version is a common thing that has always worked since the early versions of LR....

    I think I understand what you're describing (and understand why Adobe considers it a bug fix, not a bug), but screenshots of the original and virtual copy showing the locations of the brush strokes would remove ambiguity.

    Hello,

    1. yes it is the crop tool

    2. No rotation, just a virtual copy

    3. If I start using the brush just in the center of the uncropped original, the copied brush into the cropped virtual copy will be just in the relative center of the crop whatever the crop I made, not at the absolute place of the original.

    To understand more precisely:

    1. By "reframing", you mean what LR calls in English "cropping" with the Crop tool?   

    2. Did you rotate the original or the virtual copy?  Or is the original in portrait mode, rotated in-camera?

    3. And to understand what you mean by "the right place", can you please reply with screenshots showing the location of the adjustment brush strokes in the source photo and the virtual copy?
