Question

Did LR Classic CC (7.0.1) break soft proofing?

Since upgrading to 7.0.1 I am unable to get the original and the soft proof copy side by side on the screen to compare them. How do we do this now?

    It is still there:

    You get to it by turning of soft proof on an image and then clicking the YY button. You will get the before proof changes and soft proof preview side-by-side

    Stephen, in the Develop Module go to View and the Soft-Proofing features can be found.  I had the same question and I've just found the "answer" so, like you, I'm working my way through the entire process -- there are some changes.  Good luck!!

    I can get that far no problem. I can check the soft proofing option under the image to get in soft proofing mode. I can click the Create Proof Copy button and it makes a soft proof copy. I just can't get the original and the proofing copy both on the screen at the same time to compare them. I read somewhere to select the master and the copy and press C (for compare) but that kicks me back to the Library module. I can use reference view to get them both on screen but then it is no longer in soft proof mode.

    You need to click the Y|Y button and then select "before state" or "Master" in the popup beside it
