I would love to see the lasso tool from photoshop in bridge. It would make it a million times easier to select objects.
When comparing 2, 3 or 4 similar images in Review Mode with the loupe, an option to sync the loupe on every image on the exact same spot with one click would be very helpful.
I’ve noticed a recurring issue when applying ratings to files in Adobe Bridge. Here are the details:Issue: When I apply a rating to a file, the screen "jumps" down by one file instead of staying in place.When it occurs: This only happens when I have scrolled to the bottom of the list of files.Expected behavior: The screen should remain stable, allowing me to continue working on the current view without the need to scroll back up.This behavior disrupts the workflow, especially when rating files at the end of a large list. I’d appreciate it if this could be looked into for a fix.Thank you for your attention to this matter
Bridge and ACR were working stable for me in 2024, now with version 2025, I experience very often - approx. 1 in 50 files crashes and lost edits.After I finish editing/masking in Camera Raw for extensive time, like creating around 10 masks (20 minutes work) - after clicking DONE - no edits are saved in sidecar .xmp file,- sometimes the file even disappear from working folder, and I do not find them at all, - or the file is moved to trash.At the same time I am experiencing freezing/crashes in ACR, which I have not have for at least 2 years.Extremely frustrating.Adobe user since the beginning of times.Apple MacBook M1 Max 16", 32 GB RAM, 2 TB SSD, 24 GPUMacOS Seqoia 15.2Bridge 15.0.1.412ACR 17.1.0.2100
Since the dawn of Generative AI, there are almost daily upgrades and updates of 'regular' applications and public betas. And because of unfortunate cases of some crucial bugs, users (like me) prefer to retain or even re-install older versions. This results in a myriad of file type associations, both on the system level as in Adobe Bridge.Almost tens or even hundreds times a day, I'm confronted with the need to check the file type association of a certain file before double-clicking it. The system has its default settings, and some updates don't touch that, but other updates or upgrades do. Next to that, Bridge has its own approach. And on top of that, with certain newer filetypes (like WebP) an application like Photoshop even doesn't show up yet in the system's list of available applications to open it...I lost track of any logic in the current or changing status of these settings, due to installing a new, a public beta, or even an older version of any application. Simply opening a fil
When viewing photos in full screen, zooming to 1:1 occurs as an animation. This extends the time to determine whether the photo is sharp. Or if there was an option to enlarge only the indicated part of the photo as a pop-up window next to the mouse cursor.
After assigning a color label to a photo in full view, it would be nice if there was an option to enable a border around the screen, not just in the lower right corner. Looking globally at the photo and the border, it would be clear what label the photo has. The visibility of the border could be activated in the options.
I can rotate photos using the ↺ ↻ buttons but not videos. It would be a good time saver if it was possible to rotate videos the same way using these buttons.
I am using BRIDGE 14.1.4.307 version. In the tool "EDIT/FIND/Filename/ends with" system interprets file extension as part of the name of file, so if you want to find what "jpg" files have a name ending with the word "house" you have to write "house.jpg". I think that the file extension should not be considered as part of the file name. Thanks.
When having to deal with hundreds if not thousands of images when downloading from your camera memory card you need something quick and auto advance to the next image would be ideal in Bridge instead of using the right arrow each time to move on each and every time
I wish the folder view options like "Show Items from Subfolder" and "Show Folders" could be made permanent. They reset every time I open a new folder. I want to un-check the show folders because I already have folders on the left sidebar. I need to show all items in the folder even if they are in a subfolder. Not everyone will need this setting, but the people that need this will usually want it for all folders, not just for the current folder. In addition to that most important issue (persisting the folder view options), Would be very useful to show only specific types of files in the current view, to see only photos (which I might edit in Photoshop) or videos (which I might edit in other Adobe programs) or other Adobe related media. Instead, I see a lot of random system files and documents which I do not care to edit in Adobe programs. They only get in the way, prevent me from seeing all my images and videos and other media. I only want to see in Bridge files that I might want to edi
Hitting Backspace when a photo or multiple photos are selected in a Collection should result in the selected photos to be removed from the collection NOT moved to trash/bin.
Bonjour,Pourquoi ne voit-on pas le "dossier Téléchargement" de mon PC sous Windows dans Bridge ?Merci ...
Newer fields from the IPTC standard or predefined values are missing under copyright law. The Digital Source Type must be revised in the vocabulary. The specification ‘Created with software’ is now inadequate in view of artificial intelligence. The field for opting out of text and data mining is also missing.
Replace colors of the color labels with individual color palette
Since Adobe Bridge 2022, version 12, a blue line has appeared around active panels and thumbnails in versions 13, 14, and now 15. Please consider adding an option to turn off this feature or change the color. It is very distracting when reviewing images for photo editing.
It seems like every time I get a brand new version of Bridge, the scrolling feature becomes slow and exhausting. I was previously able to reach the bottom of my photos in just a few scrolls of the mouse wheel. Now when I scroll, it takes FOREVER to reach the bottom. The page doesn't even jump a half step when scrolling when it used to jump a full step. I now have to drag the side bar to reach the bottom. This is not user friendly at all. Please please please return it to the fast, smooth scrolling we had before the update!!!
Multiple magnifying glasses in one image - it would be nice to see a detail zoom of multiple points on one image, especially when comparing to a similar image (ex: see which image is sharpest across multiple depth of field areas)
Adobe Bridge is compatible with After Effects and Photoshop Betas. It should be compatible with Premiere Pro and Media Encoder betas too, so we can send to Premiere and ME from the Tools menu.
The Best thing about Bridge is being able to See nearly all file types. However, designers often wear more than one hat. Photography, Web, Print, Video...etc.The problem with the Metadata and file info panel is that it's extremely useless. This panel should be customizable to the file type selected. If the file is an illustrator file, one should be able to see and move around all the fields that are possible. Inch, CM, Pixel, Pages, Colour...etcif a file type doesn't have F-Stop info, it shouldn't take up 20% of this valuable space. Document Type - redundantApplication - nearly as redundantFile size - Redundant colour Profile - often Untagged and Redundant when it could be CMYK or RGB or BothIf illustrator/Photoshop has rules set to in/cm/px the dimension here should reflect that.
This is a simple one. Just add .heic to the already long list of document type searches in smart collections.
Suppose you had a whole bunch of .eps files scattered in many folders.Using Bridge (with Show Items from Subfolders) I can select them all, even though they are in multiple sub-folders.I wish to cycle them through Illustrator; and Save-As to a current .AI file ... saved back into the correct sub-folder.How would you automate that? An action? How would it know the correct subfolder?(BTW, in Bridge, you can automate batching pixel-based files to whatever you want like .PSD. But that won't work for vector graphics.)Bridge file renaming is pretty good, but cannot yet GREP search and replace characters. For example, I often rename underscores to hyphens in large volumes of file names.
Metadata fields like IPTC's Country have a limited number of likely values, e.g. "USA". It would be good to have the application 'remember' values and disambiguate as the user types, to speed metadata editing and eliminate extra keystrokes.
Very often I need to apply the same metadata to a limited number of fields, to a large number of files across multiple subdirectories. Right now, I have to open each subdirectory and select the files then re-type the meta data. It would be much more productive if I could select the folders I want to edit and then edit a batch metadata window where blank fields would retin existing file metadata, and where I enter metadata, it would replace whatever data is in individual metadata fields in the individual files, across all the subdirectories.
I use bridge as the default folder browser in windows.I don't understand why Adobe removed the shortcut (Ctrl+F4) to close tabs and also removed the option to click on a tab to close them all (Close All).These are such futile things that make a total difference in the daily work routine, greatly optimizing time.Please Adobe, come back with these features that existed before and I don't know why they were removed.Thanks.
