P: Grid overlay in Geometry / Rotate, Horizontal and Vertical no longer visible

  • June 14, 2022

Lightroom Desktop 5.4 running on Windows 10 PRo

Steps to reproduce:-

While editing an image, open the Geometry panel and select the Rotate slider. Note that the grid overlay no longer appears on the image, making it difficult to ensure lines in the image are vertical or horizontal.

Same applies to the Horizontal and Vertical adjustments.

For Rotate a workaround is to use the Crop tool instead (grid works OK).

@Jan Pochylý it didn't arrive. I'm not sure attachments work by email, you may need to visit the forum to include the screenshot

Dobrý den Viktorie,

bohužel tuto možnost nemám. Screen v příloze. Lze se k předchozí verzi dostat jiným způsobem?
Pracuji na Macbook Air M1 - MacOS 12.4

Děkuji a s pozdravem

@Jan Pochylý its unlikely that a bug like this would trigger a double dot release, so the earliest it's likely to be fixed is the next release, which is likely a couple of months away. However if the bug is affecting your workflow, it's easy to roll back to the previous version https://www.lightroomqueen.com/roll-back-update-previous/

Hello, what is the status of the bug fix? I have to process photos without guide lines and it's hell! I'm taking photos of architecture and it's really extremely laggy.
I'm paying Adobe for something that doesn't work, it's holding up my work, plus I have to give discounts to clients for waiting.
Your attitude is very unprofessional, especially when you offer products for professionals!
How will you address the situation?

Thank you for your response. When will it be fixed?

Why did you delete the tool guides in the geometry section in the Lightrooom version 5.4 update (MacBook 2020 M1)? You can move the slider as much as you want, but you can't check the alignment!
