Paste/Sync different than preset

Hi all, I figured it out, it was just that "Callibration" wasn't checked when copying or syncing. I had tried the "Treatment & Profile" and a few other things, but for some reason, I didn't think to try Callibration until after I posted. All good now!

There's another thing about White Balance pasting that catches people. If you're pasting with 'As Shot' White Balance, the numbers won't change, even though they're different to the original. A 5600/+20 As Shot pasted onto a 5200/+18 As Shot photo won't bump the white balance at all. You have to change the original photo's White Balance from 'As Shot' to Custom first. Then the White Balance will copy as expected. 

This depends on what the preset does. If the preset contains 'Auto Tone', then applying that preset will make automatic adjustments to the image. Copy/paste onto another image will not make auto tone adjustments to that second image, but simply paste the adjustment settings of the source image.

It should be the same result, but only if when you copy settings (or sync settings) between photos, all relevant adjustments and especially "Treatment and profile" (top left) are selected.

A preset can be applied onto multiple selected photos - what happens when you do that? Can even be imposed as the initial processing across a new set of photos, within the import settings.

There may be some issues with transferring WB in particular, between Raw and non-Raw based images. Or transferring Exposure and Contrast and such, between HDR and non-HDR images - that kind of thing. But out of camera files of the same general sort can certainly be batch edited - absent some specific bug.

There is also selecting a batch of photos, turning on AutoSync, and then editing them all together "as one"? (remembering to turn off AutoSync straight afterwards, due to the risk of unintended actions affecting multiple images if you later forgot this was still active)
