Can an adjusted local color grading layer be directly copied to clips from other camera angles? Why did the base color of the entire frame change after pasting?

Local grading layers coexist with global Color properties. If the global color is checked when using the general paste attributes function, the basic lighting of the target clip will be forcibly overwritten.

[Operation] ① Select the source clip with the adjusted mask, right-click on the timeline, and select "Effects and Filters > Copy" (this channel specifically encapsulates the Mask and local color grading parameters); ② Select the target clip, right-click, and select "Effects and Filters > Paste"; ③ If the composition of the target frame is offset, go to "Color Mask > Layers" of the target clip and fine-tune the mask anchor point in the preview monitor to fit the subject in the new frame.

[Verification] Click the "Eye" icon on the left side of the grading layer to toggle the show/hide status, confirming that the color grading is only applied to the target local area, and the global exposure baseline of the original clip remains unaffected.
