Copy Adjustments

The Copy Adjustments command enables you to copy to Capture NX 2’s clipboard either the entire series of settings from the current image or only the highlighted steps or enhancements from the Edit List palette. Once the enhancements are on the clipboard, you can paste them into a different image, a group of images, or back into the same image.

To copy the entire series of settings from the current image, ensure that no steps are selected in the Edit List palette using the Deselect All command in the Edit menu and then select Copy Adjustments from the Batch menu.

To copy only selected enhancements, select one or more steps or enhancements and then select Copy Adjustments from the Batch menu.

C Hint: You can copy more than one step at a time. Hold the control key (Windows) or command key (Macintosh) and click to highlight multiple steps or enhancements. You can also select a range of steps or enhancements by clicking on the first step or enhancement in the range that you want to copy, and while holding the Shift key down, selecting the last step or enhancement in the range that you want to copy.

Paste Adjustments

The Paste Adjustments command enables you to paste any settings that are currently within Capture NX 2’s clipboard into the active image in the editor or into selected images within the browser.

To use Paste Adjustments, ensure that you have previously copied adjustments using the Copy Adjustments command, and then select this option. You can paste settings into the current image either

in the editor or in the browser, or you can paste settings into a series of images selected in the browser. The pasted settings will be appended onto the end of the Edit List palette for the selected images.

Due to the unique nature of the “Develop” section within the Edit List palette, copying and pasting the contents of the “Develop” section will replace the contents with the pasted settings in the images that were

pasted into. To prevent the “Develop” section from being replaced, ensure that you select only steps from the “Adjust” section when performing the Copy Adjustments command.
