P: Book Module - Used/Unused filters are not showing the correct selection

Community Beginner ,

I use the lightroom book module to make some pretty long albums (Like hundreds of pictures).  Earlier this week I installed the update, and now I can't filter the pictures in a saved book to only show unused photos.  This is critical when I'm using hundreds of pictures.  How do I fix it?

I can reproduce this on Mac and Windows, and @Rob_Cullen 's workaround does not correct it for me.

I noticed the same!

Try clicking on [Reset Default Presets] - It restored more options for me.

Where is this drop down menu to access "Restore Default Presets"?

"Where is this drop down menu to access "Restore Default Presets"?-"

Look in the filter options- disclosure menu-  on the filmstrip (when in book module)

As of today's update I am having the same problem - when i select the Unused filter, it still shows every single photo in the collection. This makes it very hard  (impossible!) to work on large books when it is necessary to select photos from the unused ones. When I select the Unused filter, a message 'No Filter' momentarily appears on the screen. The Used filter has the same issue. Other filters only show the photos fitting the filter description. There must be a bug with these two filters.  Restore Default Presets did not fix the problem. I even tried deleting the Unused filter and restoring it.

Same here. Apple Mac Studio 2023 running MacOS 15.5, Lightroom Classic 14.4. It is now almost impossible to create the books that I create using the Book module.
