Conflict Management
Choose how Capture NX 2 resolves any conflicts that may arise while performing batch processing on
NEF/NRW (RAW) images. The following options are available:
❏ Append New Settings
The Append New Settings option is the default option when applying a watched folder. This option
will automatically add the enhancements from the settings file to all of the images processed by the
watched folder.
❏ Replace Current Settings
The Replace Current Settings option will apply the enhancements from the settings file to all images
and will overwrite any enhancements that may already be contained within the images processed by
the watched folder.
❏ Skip & Continue
The Skip & Continue option will automatically skip any image in which a conflict was identified
without processing that image. An error entry will be created within the log file informing you the name
of the image and the time that the conflict was identified.
Use Settings Files
By selecting this option, you will be able to select a settings file to apply to
the images placed within the watched folder.
• Browse…
Click on the Browse… button within the “Apply Settings” section to
locate a settings file to apply to the images.
Use Original Settings
Select this option to return NEF/NRW (RAW) files and converted NEF files to
the states they were in before they were edited in Capture NX 2. NEF/NRW
(RAW) files will be restored to the settings in effect when the pictures were
taken, while converted NEF files will have all changes made using
Capture NX 2 removed.
