Copy/paste image corrections

Post by ardklg »

I've gotten used to this in RSP and Bibble, and it would be awesome to have this feature in a jpg editor...

...the ability to copy adjustments (like white balance, sharpness, etc.) from one image to other images. For example, if you have a group of images that were all taken in the same place under the same lighting conditions, you could adjust the white balance for one image, and copy that white balance adjustment to the other images in that group.

So it's almost a batch convert...

Sort of, except you could do it visually while viewing the thumbnails.

For example, rather than having to write down the white balance settings, then make a list of the filenames that you want to apply it to, then run the batch convert routine and selecting the filenames you wrote down, you could

a) right-click on the thumbnail for the photo you corrected and select "Copy attributes" and select the attributes/settings you wish to copy (white balance, sharpening, contrast, etc.)
b) control-click all the thumbnails for the photos you'd like to apply the settings to, then right-click and select "Paste attributes".

The settings in the source file would be applied to the target file(s).
