Bug Reports

When Automatically Write Changes Into XMP is enabled, LR won't write the develop settings of the current photo when it exits. To reproduce:   1. Enable Automatically Write Changes Into XMP.   2. Edit a raw in Develop.   3. Change the Exposure slider to -5.   4. Exit LR.   5. Edit the raw's .xmp and observe that the Exposure slider is not -5.   See the attached screen recording.  Prior to LR 11, this behaved correctly. With the current performance enhancements to writing .xmp, there's no performance reason why LR shouldn't write the .xmp of the current photo on exit.   Tested on LR 11.0 / Windows 10.

When I select multiple images in lightroom and hit "open as layers in photoshop", photoshop launches and opens the first couple images and then stops opening the remaining images. It leaves a layer called "load images" at the bottom of the image stack.   Often if I close the file, and try again, it will work the second time. This has been a repeated issue for several years. I manage a facebook group for architectural photographers with 3.5k members and this issue is regularly brought up.   I'm currently using PS 22.5.0 and lightroom Classic 10.4 on a iMac running Big Sur 11.5.2.   Please address this issue!!!!

I am trying to use the embedded previews from my Sony A1 raw files.  I know they're there because I can open them with Photo Mechanic.  But when I use embedded previews on import the previews I get are nowhere near full size.   Does anyone know how to work around this, or is Adobe working on a fix?     ---------------------------------------------- Moved to Lightroom Classic 'Bugs' forum by Forum Modertor

I updated Lightroom Classic to 11.0.  Once I did that, I click on Mask, add a new mask, and select the brush tool. When I do, there are no brushes to select from. I cannot use dodge, burn, soften skin, iris enhance, etc.  They're missing.  Any help on how to fix this?     Thank you!   

When zooming into an image in library mode, the color changes suddenly and differs from all the consistent colours shown in develop mode or library mode (fit image). I just updated to LR10.1 and appreciated other fixed bugs. I am using an external BenQ display calibrated to AdobeRGB profile using xrite. The images have Adobe profiles (AdobeVivid) applied.

Hola, estoy con un problema el Lr. Estoy editando fotos de un evento hace unos dias. El viernes se me actualizo la version de Lr, por lo que el sabado cuando lo abri para seguir, me dijo que tenia que actualizar la version del catalogo dada la actualizacion del prograa. Lo hice, y contnue trabajando sin problemas. Hoy cuand abro para retomar el trabajo y entregar al cliente, no me deja abrir e catalogo actualizado, y tampoco el anterir! No se como seguir trabajando   Por favor ayuda!!    

Lr 11 update is causing a major problem with developer profiles.The profiles are not showing up when a preset is applied, or the slider is there but greyed out.As part of a team that has developed many preset collections with custom profiles, this a HUGE problem that needs to get fixed asap!

  I have a preset for sharpening. When I select multiple images and apply this develop preset there is a weird behaviour. The preset is applied but also all other images get develop settings from the active image in the selection.   This started happening in 10.4. I use this regularly and it never behaved like this.     Lightroom Classic version: 10.4 [ 202108071231-af9219b9 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 10 - Business EditionVersion: 10.0.19043Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 12Processor speed: 3,1GHzSqLite Version: 3.34.0Built-in memory: 49076,1 MBReal memory available to Lightroom: 49076,1 MBReal memory used by Lightroom: 4036,5 MB (8,2%)Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 5463,4 MBGDI objects count: 818USER objects count: 2310Process handles count: 3956Memory cache size: 3950,8MBInternal Camera Raw version: 13.4 [ 872 ]Maximum thread count used by Camera Raw: 5Camera Raw SIMD opti

I found a design error in LRc regadring the creation of HDR or Panos.When rendering a new image either as HDR or as pano and use 'Auto Correction' settings LRc will create a new rendererd image and doing some Auto Corrections on that picture.  If you take a look into the protocol you find only one entry, that is 'Import'. This would be fine if importetd picture would be the rendered pic with auto corrections. But if you click onto 'Import' in protocol the picture gets reseted. I think this is an design error. Protocol should either show two entries for Import and(!) auto corrections or 'Import' should be the picture with(!) applioed Auto corrections.

[See here for how to reproduce the bug and an easy workaround: https://feedback.photoshop.com/conversations/lightroom-classic/lightroom-classic-editing-cr3-files-in-ps-from-lr-lose-color-profile/5f9043b035f40c2520b9e964?commentId=5fb3495d014b4c3c8a0da305 -- John Ellis]   Editing a picture in Photoshop 2021 from within LR 10.0 makes the color profile disappear and the image loses all it's vibrancy... Any idea how to fix that? Top image is what I see in LR. Bottom is how it shows up in Photoshop... 

Updated LRC and now tethered capture window doesn't even show.

[See this reply for how to reproduce the problem:  https://feedback.photoshop.com/conversations/lightroom-classic/lightroom-classic-color-grading-tone-curve-preset-issue/60f07ff69aff7e7291982bb1?commentId=60fc5c569aff7e7291996749]   When I create a colour grading preset, of course with only the colour grading box ticked, when I apply the preset to a photo it also applies the tone curve of the photo that was used to create the preset.   I'm pretty damn sure this shouldn't be happening. And its damn annoying considering I've now found my colour grade stye and am applying it to all of my pre edited photos. I have to select the colour grade values individually for each photo. It's rather burdensome.   Any suggestions. Is there something I don't know about how this data is processed?   Thanks

After exporting this error report populates and states that an internal math error has occurred for 18 of the images. I'm not sure how to fix this. Can someone help me out? 

This may be because I am running an older iMac, but in Grid View, images in portrait mode are getting the filename cropped when displayed in the bottom label.  Is there a workaround for this?  It's not work stopping, just annoying.  

In v10.1.1, I can select a group of images. Using Crop & Straighten, I select an aspect ratio of "2x3 / 4x6", the aspect ratio is locked on the master image. I then Synchronize the group of images, selecting only "Crop, Straighten Angle & Aspect Ratio". The entire group of images now has an aspect ratio of "2x3 / 4x6", with the aspect ratio locked. This would appear to be the desired effect, when syncing a crop at a specified aspect ratio.   Now, with the new v10.2, the same sequence ends up having only the master image with the aspect ratio locked! All other images in the selected group have the correct aspect ratio, but they are set in the unlocked state!   I have two computers, one with each version, they are replicating the above. This is a major hit. I'm performing this on hundreds of images at a time, I then need to go into each image and tweak the position of crop. With the crop unlocked, I can mistakenly screw up the aspect ratio.   System Specs:   &

I recently imported to Lightroom a few thousand photos that I had scanned. Then I tagged faces in them. Lightroom slowed down until it started disappearing and reappearing. I noticed that the task manager could no longer display graphs.  These are symptoms of a handle leak, so I rebooted.   Having rebooted I restarted Lightroom and continued tagging faces. In Task Manager I kept an eye on the columns: Handles, Threads, User Objects, and GDI objects. This is how they looked at the beginning: And this is how they looked after a lot of tagging: All four counters have increased significantly. In particular "User Objects" has increased from 2,526 to 5,588 items. This indicates a Window leak.   So I brought up Spy++ and looked at all the windows on the system.   There were hundreds and hundreds of top-level listboxes!   All these ListBoxes are owned by Lightroom, but it is not their parent. Their owner is "Lightroom Catalog-2-v10 - Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Cla

When updating web / classic galleries the 'Update Web Gallery' never finishes. This occurs with all the templates in the 'Classic Gallery'. I can make changes to things like the Site Title, Collection Title, etc., in a Classic Gallery and those changes will be displayed on the monitor but images included in the gallery are never displayed. I can modify and create other gallery templates with no issue (Grid, Square, and Track) and images are shown appropriately. However, 'Preview In Browser' will work and reflect changes accordingly. 

As this has happened to me over a dozen times in the past few weeeks, and after each instance the dialog box appears stating there is no known solution so would I like to sned in a report, I am hoping it is not breaking news. But, when I attempt to go to the Maps mode from Library or Develop after having selected a few (or a few dozen) images, LRC unexpectantly quits.   Through trial and error, I have found that if I do not make an image selection and then go to Maps mode, it usually does not just quit - so there is that. But obviously not what was intended, since this is new behavior since gettting the latest update of LRC.   If it is pertinant, I am runing this on an M1 MacBook Pro with 16GB of RAM (and an external 2TB SSD) on OSX 11.5.1

Lightroom Classic 9.3 and 9.4 and probably other versions:Right-click a Develop preset and select Apply on Import from the menu. A plus sign is appended to the preset's name. Go to Apply During Import on the Import screen and notice that the preset's name appears in the Develop Settings field. While still on the Import screen, select a different Develop preset from the Develop Settings list. When you return to the Develop module, the plus sign still appears on the originally selected preset rather than the preset selected on the Import screen.

Auto Sync in Survey mode doesn't sync changes made to the stars under the thumbnail, though it does sync changes made to the pick and rejected flags under the thumbnail, to the stars in the toolbar, and to the stars with keyboard shortcuts.   To reproduce:   1. Select four photos and go into Survey mode.   2. Do Metadata > Enable Auto Sync.   3. Click and change the stars under one of the thumbnails -- notice that the stars do not change for any of the other thumbnails.   4. Click the pick and reject flags under one thumbnail, and notice that the other thumbnails also get the flags.      5. Click and change the stars in the toolbar (not under the thumbnails) and notice that the stars change for all the thumbnails.   6. Use keyboard shortcuts (e.g. 1 ... 5) to change the stars and notice that they change for all the thumbnails.   Tested in LR 10.0 / Mac OS 10.15.5.

Lightroom 9.2.1 had this problem, I was hoping 9.3 would fix the bug. It doesn't!If you create a slideshow which contains mov files, if you do no changes to the mov file, the slideshow Export video works fine. However, if you change the mov file white balance or tone (e.g. in the library quick develop panel) then try and export the slideshow as a movie, the process just hangs forever.Does anyone else see this problem? can you try and reproduce.My mov files are created by a Fujifilm X-T3, I'm using MAC OS Catalina 10.15.5Here's my system information:Lightroom Classic version: 9.3 [ 202005281810-476e492c ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: en-GBOperating system: Mac OS 10Version: 10.15.5 [19F96]Application architecture: x64Logical processor count: 8Processor speed: 4.0 GHzSqLite Version: 3.30.1Built-in memory: 24,576.0 MBReal memory available to Lightroom: 24,576.0 MBReal memory used by Lightroom: 1,759.6 MB (7.1%)Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 7,041.7 MBMemory cache size: 39.8M

I'm currently using LR Classic release 10.1.1, Camera raw 13.1, on an iMac running Big Sur 11.2. and GPU AMD Radeon Pro 580 - 8gb.  I use a Wacom and MIDI2LR with a Behringher X-touch.   This error is extremely similar to the problem where brush work was deleted/modified when spot removal tool was used, with this problem when you exported the error was not exported.   The problem I am experiencing is that in the library panel (and on the film strip when in develop mode) I am seeing the incorrect brushwork on a graduated filter which is being deleted/modified/affected, but not when in develop mode (develop mode is showing the correct edit).  On top of this when I export a full res jpeg I am seeing the problem in the exported jpeg.  You can see the specific problem on their faces in the images below.  I've since worked out that the library version of masking is where my Wacom pen drew, and the develop version shows the auto mask selection.  But when I e

When I copy the settings and only check "color adjustments" and then paste the settings onto another image, it also copies and pastes the tone curve, even though it's not checked. This has always been an issue for me and I would appreciate if someone helped, as I have to enter the settings manually on every photo. I am using Windows 10 if that's relevant.

The Smart Preview Status column in the Library Filter bar's Metadata browser shows wrong counts.  To reproduce:   1. Start with a catalog containing many photos.   2. In All Photographs, do Expand All Stacks, select all the photos, and do Library > Previews > Discard Smart Previews.   3. Select the first 10 photos and do Library > Previews > Build Smart Previews.   4. Create a smart collection with the criterion "Has Smart Preview is true". Observe that the smart collection shows a count of 10.   5. Open the Metadata browser with the single column Smart Preview Status and select Has Smart Preview.   6. Observe that the count for the line Has Smart Preview usually is much less than 10, but the number of photos displayed in Grid view is always the correct 10.   See here for the original report: https://www.lightroomqueen.com/community/threads/wrong-photo-counts-in-metadata-filter.42872/   Tested on LR 10.2 / Mac OS 11.1 and 10.2 /

Photo > Enhance with the Super Resolution and Create Stack options never completes when run on a photo in Quick Collection. The .dng appears but the progress bar never finishes. This doesn't happen when Create Stack is unchecked.  Resetting preferences doesn't help.   Most likely the code that tries to create the stack doesn't realize that collections aren't allowed in Quick Collection.  I think the proper behavior is to grey out the option when invoked on Quick Collection photos.   Tested on LR 10.3 / Mac OS 11.3.1.  Doesn't happen on my Windows 10 LR.
