Bugs Corrected in the Lightroom 3.6 Release Candidate
The following bugs that were part of previous Lightroom 3 releases have been corrected. The team appreciates the very detailed feedback the community has provided on Lightroom 3 and we’re excited to correct a number of issues experienced by our customers. These issues have been FIXED
- Lightroom 3.5 did not update the correct metadata fields in a file after adjusting the capture time of an image
- Publish Collections created prior to Lightroom 3.4 designed to publish to a Hard Drive could fail to work properly in Lightroom 3.5
- The Targeted Adjustment Tool provided the reverse value intended when used on OS X 10.7
- The incorrect Aspect Ratio was displayed when Crop settings were Copy/Pasted or applied via Previous button (Mac Only)
- In rare situations, Lightroom 3.4 and 3.5 would not be able to read certain JPEG files properly
- Files with invalid date metadata could fail to import properly
- Editing a crop that had previously been copied from another file would fail to retain the copied aspect ratio
- Please provide feedback on your experience with the Lightroom 3.6 Release Candidate Bug Report Form.
