Step Seven:
Back in the first step, I mentioned that
the dust on my camera's sensor created
these annoying spots in the exact same
position in every shot from that shoot.
If that's the case (and with spots like this,
it often is), then once you've removed all
the spots, click the Copy button at the
bottom of the left side Panels area. This
brings up the Copy Settings dialog, shown
here. First, click the Check None button, so
everything it would copy from your photo
is unchecked. Then, turn on just the check-
box for Spot Removal (as shown here) and
click the Copy button.
Step Eight:
Now, go to the Filmstrip (or the Library
module's Grid view) and select all the
horizontal photos (photos in the same
orientation) from that shoot, then click
the Paste button at the bottom of the left
side Panels area, and it applies that same
spot removal you did to the first photo,
to all these selected photos—all at once
(as shown here). To see these fixes applied,
click on the Spot Removal tool again. I also
recommend you take a quick look at the
fixed photos, because depending on the
subject of your other shots, the fixes could
look more obvious than on the photo you
just fixed. If you see a photo with a spot
repair problem, just click on that particular
circle, hit the
Delete (PC: Backspace) key
on your keyboard to remove it, then use
the Spot Removal tool to redo that one
spot repair manually.
