I’m on M1 Mac OSX 14.2 using NLP v3.0.2 and Lightroom 13.0.1 and try to copy setting (Brightness, Temp, Tint) across multiple photos. The Copy Settings window appears when I copy, but nothing happens when I try to Paste on a different photo. It’s only sometimes, and I have been able to see a pattern. Does not help to restart Lightroom. Other suggestions?
