View > Before/After doesn't work on this photo with multiple masks.  Before shows the same edited image as After, but toggling off the Masks panel shows the original image.

 

Edited image:

 

Before:

 

Masks panel toggled off:

 

Screen recording is attached.

 

Download the raw and it's .xmp sidecar with edits from here:

    Additional information from engineering:

     

    "The previous settings for an image are set by default to be same as the settings at import time. In the case where an image is imported along with a sidecar, the settings in the sidecar are applied during import only. So before settings are also set to be same as the settings present in sidecar. Hence before/after will be referring to same settings."

      Thanks much, that explains the behavior -- I import photos with .xmp sidecars all the time and never noticed that before.

      On my MACBookPro 15 inch Retina 2015, LrC v11.0.1, MACOS v12.0.1

       

      Step 1, download photo and xmp to download folder. 

       

      Step 2, copy the photo and xmp to the folder my test catalog is in

       

      Test 1, Import (Add). 

      Result 1, Before/After look the same, yes I can select masks and see them, look at them. But before./after fails

       

      Strp 3, Remove (delete) photo from catalog. Delete xmp from catalog

       

      Step 4, copy just the photo to folder with test catslog

       

      Test 2, Import (Add) without xmp, accomplish some edits

      Result 2.  I go and add some masks, In this case before.after works.
