How do you duplicate a psd file in Capture One 21

In Aperture I could duplicate a colour psd file and then open that in Photoshop and convert that to a B&W version or another manipulated version so that I could then have two different psd files in Aperture. Creating a Clone of a psd file in Capture does not create a new separate file so that when I open up the second file any changes to the clone are also applied to the original. How can I create a separate duplicate psd file in Capture so that any changes to the second file are not applied to the original.

The only way I can see is to export the psd with a new name and then re-import.

Hi John,

You can make a new variant or clone your variant of the PSD file.
The new PSD variant can be edited further within Capture One, you can for example make a black and white version or you can choose to right-click and edit with Photoshop. When you save the file, this new file will be located in Capture One right next to your variant.

I think you might have been choosing the 'Open With' option instead.
