Lightroom Classic V15 update problem

With the Fix/Remove (Clone) tool, when you move the clone source, the image warps vertically even though it's horizontal. This is all with the Lightroom Classic V15 update.

 

Another problematic tool is Lens Blur which no longer works! (Clip02.mp4)

    Greetings, wanted to report that Lens Blur wasn't working with new Classic 15 update. Quit app with test integrity and optimize checked. Launched again and Lens Blur works now.

    I’ve noticed the same issues after the Lightroom Classic v15 update — the Clone tool causes strange vertical warping even on horizontal images. The Lens Blur tool also seems broken or unresponsive. Hopefully, Adobe releases a quick patch to fix these bugs soon!

      You were right! I checked the integrity and optimize tests and now it works as before!

      @Attiwind For clarification, along with the Lens Blur issue, has the issue with the Clone tool also been addressed?

      Hi @Attiwind 

       

      Thanks for sharing the details! I tried but couldn’t reproduce the issue on my end. Could you please try reinstalling Lightroom Classic and then manually opening your old catalog?

      You’ll need to upgrade the catalog again, but if there was an error during the previous upgrade, this should help correct it.

      Hey, @Attiwind. Thanks for adding the videos, it helps. I'll need more info to help you figure this out. Please share the system info from Lightroom Classic from Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > Upload and attach here. 

       

      Does this happen with freshly imported images, or after you've applied specific edits to the image, such as Lens Corrections, Denoise, and Masks? 

       

      Awaiting hearing from you. Thanks!

      Hi @Sameer K , 

      There was an update to version 15 yesterday and the catalog was updated with the version but the image import was previous.

      The catalog has doubled in size and everything is slower than usual.
