P: Desktop 4.1 for Mac: HDR Merge Switches to Recently Added Section of Library

Hi,

 

It seems that Lightroom 4.1 for Mac now shows the merged HDR image in the Recently Added section of the library after completing the merge. This is disruptive when performing a number of successive HDR merges, as the cognitive effort to recover one’s position in the list of photos and start the next merge has now increased. Prior to this version, HDR merge did not switch views.

 

Please consider reverting or adding an option to disable this behavior.

 

Thanks,

Joe

Previously after completing a photo merge, you would be taken back to the album the merging was happening in, and the photo stack was selected. 

Now after the merge you are taken to the “recently imported” view with only the merged photo showing. 

Can the previous behaviour return?

Exactly the same problem on Windows Desktop App when performing panoramas merge. This is indeed very disruptive to the normal workflow.
