I tried to upgrade to Nik Collection 7 from Nik Collection 5 and was told that I have to pay full price. When I reached out to the DxO representative, I was told that they could be charging me "$79 for upgrade from v5 to v6 and $89 from v6 to v7, so, instead of charging you individually to upgrade we charge the $159 new price" . Isn't that like saying if I upgrade from iPhone 13 to iPhone 15, Apple should charge me for Apple 14 as well. Too frequent upgrades with minor changes and I have to pay full price for each upgrade. No, Thank you.

Earlier we could group control points. Can't seem to find it in Nik Collection 7

[@madefromfilm]

Make sure that none of the local adjustment tools button is active in the panel.
In the image, click close to the control point, control line, control polygon or luminosity mask dot that you will be using as the main setting and then, holding the left mouse button, drag a rectangle to encompass all the other dots you want to link (the rectangle will have white edges and a white translucent fill).
Release the mouse button: all included tools are linked and active (and yellow):
only the sliders of the control point or the control line where you started to draw the selection rectangle are visible,
these sliders will affect all the tools in the same way,
the size of the area of influence remains independent and changeable, from one tool to another,
the tools dots keep their appearance.
Another way to link multiple local adjustment tools is to hold the Cmd (Mac) or Ctrl key (PC) and click on the dots.
To cancel the linkage and regain the dependency of each control point and/or control line, click anywhere in the image.
The linking technique can also be used to remove several local adjustment dots at once (press the Back or Delete key).

Be warned that this “upgrade” does not include Nik Perspective. If I had known this before purchasing I never would have bought the “upgrade.” What a rip-off!!!

On Robin Whalley's review video on his TH-cam channel he said you could install Version 7 and keep your previous version which means you can keep Nik Perspective. Haven't tried it myself yet though.

It's totally true.
