How do I remove a module from multiple images

Software darktable
1

I’ve managed to add lens correction to hundreds of images via the Styles option in lighttable. I’d now like to turn lens correction off on all the images. I’ve played around with Styles but I can only enable modules - I see no way of removing them. Each image has different modules enabled with different parameters as I’ve edited them all, so I can’t just remove all metadata for every image. How do I do this?

I think… But not sure … You can disable it on one.
Then, in the lighttable, select that image, and use the ‘selective copy’ button. You can then pick what you want to copy. In a module that is turned off, you can select to copy the ‘off’ state.

Select the other images, and hit paste (or selective past, not sure).

If you are out of luck, this won’t work with turning modules off and then my advice is worthless:(

Thanks - that’s it!

Note for my future self - as I don’t take many photos these days, so I’ll forget next time I need to process 2000 photos - you need to ensure mode = append otherwise there’s nothing “selective” about the paste; it’ll just remove any unselected modules.

Or create a new style with only one item which is turn off lens correction.

Apply this new style in Append mode
