Apply Develop adjustments to other photos
As you make adjustments to a photo in the Develop module or in the Quick Develop panel of the Library module,
Lightroom keeps a record of the settings. You can copy these settings and apply them to different versions of the
photo and to other photos selected in the Filmstrip.
For a video on synchronizing settings across a group of photos, see www.adobe.com/go/learn_lr_video_synch.
Copy the current photo's Develop settings
You can specify individual settings to copy from the current photo before you paste them to another photo in the
Filmstrip.
• In the Develop module, click the Copy button to the left of the toolbar, choose Edit > Copy, or choose Develop >
Copy Settings. Select the settings you want and click Copy.
• In the Library module, choose Photo > Develop Settings > Copy Settings. Select the settings you want and click Copy.
Note: The Edit > Copy command in the Library module (Mac OS only) is designated for copying text and metadata. In
the Develop module, the Edit > Copy command serves a dual purpose for copying selected text in a panel or copying the
Develop settings of a selected photo.
Paste Develop settings to another photo
Select the photo in the Filmstrip that you want to apply the settings to and do one of the following:
• In the Develop module, click the Paste button, choose Edit > Paste, or choose Develop > Paste Settings.
• In the Library module, choose Photo > Develop Settings > Paste Settings.
Note: The regular Paste command in the Library module is designated for pasting copies of text and metadata.
Apply Develop settings using the Painter tool
1
In the Grid view of the Library module, select the Painter tool in the toolbar, and then choose Settings from the
Paint menu in the toolbar.
Note: If the Painter tool does not appear in the toolbar, choose Painter from the toolbar menu.
Choose the Develop setting in the toolbar, and then click or drag across photos to apply the setting.

To disable the Painter, click the circular well in the toolbar. When disabled, the Painter icon is visible in the toolbar.

Synchronize settings with multiple photos
Whether you are working in the Develop or the Library module, you can copy and paste the Develop settings of the
current photo (which is indicated by a thicker white border around the photo in the Filmstrip) to all other selected
photos in the Filmstrip.
Note: When only one photo is selected in the Filmstrip, the Sync Settings command is not available. In the Develop
module, the Sync button becomes the Previous button; in the Library module, the Sync Settings button is inactive.
Shift-click to select the other photos in the Filmstrip to synchronize with the current photo, and then do one of the
following:
• In the Develop module, click the Sync button, or choose Settings > Sync Settings. Select the settings to copy and
click Synchronize.
