This would make copying settings so much easier...

Question

It's baffling that when I copy settings from a photo, settings that rarely need copying (crop, spot removal, transform, local adjustments, etc...) aren't grouped into their own section of the pop-up panel. It's illogical the layout the way it is. Please group these adjustments into their own area of the panel and include a one-click on-off radio switch as well. It would make things a lot easier for power users.

It may be because the specific options that “rarely need copying” are not the same for all people.

I’ve definitely synced a crop across many images, sometimes just to get them all into the same aspect ratio that I then recompose slightly for each image. Some will sync spot removal because there’s a dead pixel on the sensor and they want a spot correction for that applied to an entire shoot. I have also synced local adjustments, such as a gradient that works great on one image and needs to be applied to other similar images.

It would still be perfectly reasonable to submit a feature request to customize the dialog box, maybe to let you hide or reorganize the options you don’t use. The Photoshop Feedback site linked to be dj_paige is definitely the best place to do that, so it can be tracked and voted on.
