Hi There,
Is there a way to turn on/off the black and white option for a batch of photos?
I work on a mac.
Thx

David

  Make sure the edit all selected variants option is on (icon on the toolbar looking like 3 stacked rectangles). Select the batch. Select the check box for Enable Black & White: that will apply this to the primary selected image - the one with the thick white border. Then hold down shift and click the double-headed arrow symbol in the B&W tool that will copy this setting to the rest of the batch.

  Hi Ian,
  
  MANY THANKS!
  This seems to work (sometimes)
  However it doesn't seem to work every time (maybe a bug in capture one 12?)
  Thx

  What you also can do is using a preset that only contains the value for this B&W on/off checkbox. The fun part is that a preset works on all selected images. There is no need to copy this as an adjustment.

  Nice lateral thinking Paul!

  Thanks Grant, I apparently was in lateral mode. 😉
  
  I actually use (thousands) of presets for virtually all my edits. Few people understand the power of presets Capture One offers.
  
  But as you said, I am a lateral. 😁

  I'm not sure I could cope with thousands of presets.
  
  500 keyboard short cuts would be too many for me! Actually more than ten or so - unless they are used very regularly.
  
  Do you play chess Paul? A lot of chess play at the higher levels seems to be constructed around presets and memory.
  
  
  I do understand the potential power of presets - especially if one has worked out how to benefit from them with some lateral thinking when defining how a feature set might be applied - as you have done.
