Question

LR Classic to PS roundtrip

When I open a LR photo as a smart object in PS, save it, and close, the photo is not being saved back to the collection it came from. It is being saved in the catalogue folder, but not in the collection (I'm not using smart collections, just regular collections.) I just updated to LR 9.4.4 and PS 21.2.2  Is anyone else having this issue?

    Not in a Smart Collection, so probably not #3 in the following, but read anyhow:

    Thx - I had seen this before posting my question.  It's not applicable, unfortunately - I checked all 5 points.

    Are you opening in Photoshop from the collection? It should only get added to the collection you are currently in. Just tried it on my 9.4 install and it works correctly.

    Thx for your response. Yes, I am opening in PS from the collection, but it's not going back to the collection. Can't figure it out - very weird.

    Is it perhaps automatically stacked? Other reason can be an active filter on the collection.
