MOVE ADJUSTMENTS TO NEW FILLED LAYER

FirstName LastName

What problem do you see this solving?
WAY better workflow: I don't ALWAYS know from the beginning that I want certain adjustments on a new layer, so I do them all, and after I finished them, I want to change the opacity, but I don't want to affect other adjustments on the same layer. So I have to create a new filled layer, and then manually copy and paste the adjustments I want to separate to put them into the new layer. This is even harder if the adjustments are in the Colour Balance section, since there are no specific values.

I would like to be able to click on the 3 dots, or 3 bars of the specific tool-tab, and have an option that says: "Move adjustments to new layer", thus creating a new filled layer (or maybe copying the mask on the current layer onto the new one), reset the adjustments of the specific tool on the current layer, and pasting them in the new layer. (How has no one ever thought of this?)

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?
Manually copying each value and inserting them into the new, manually created layer.

Are you happy to be contacted further about this suggestion or request?
Yes

    Another similar use case is when you have adjusted one or several tools in a layer and want to use several parametric masks (radial masks and/or linear gradient masks) with the exact same adjustments. I cannot do this in one layer so I need to copy the layes' tools in order to apply the same adjustments for each parametric mask. As you said, moving or copying tool adjustments from one layer to another or a new one is a missing feature.

    I already asked for this in Jun.21. And I think I recall someone else also asking for this more recently, so hopefully it might get some traction.

    In the meantime, there's an easier way than what you're doing - just clone the variant then copy the Layer from one variant to the other
