Has anyone else found that the Before & After views in the Develop module (The \ Key) are not working correctly in Lightroom 3 ? If I make changes to an image and use Before / After it works as expected and toggles between my developed image and the imported settings. If then move to another image and then back to my original image and make more changes it then toggles between the last changes I made and the new changes. The Before image always used to remain as the imported image in Lightroom 2.
To make matters worse I recently re-imported all my images after resetting the develop settings and writing out xmp to fix an issue I had with before / after after re-importing images a while ago. I want my before view to be the imported view, always ! I know this can be set in the History panel but only one image at a time. It looks like I wasted a huge amount of time trying to sort this out only to have LR3 change its behaviour and screw up all my Before images again.
Also the before / after view sometimes shows changes to the crop but not always. I would actually like it to show the crop changes so I can see what my before image really looked like.
The only reliable way to see the before and after images is to reset and then CMD-Z to undo it.
