P: HSL Adjustments for Local Adjustment Tools

This is Chad's wife, Kris, posting from his Adobe ID password (our whole household uses Adobe software).

I have repeatedly asked for this feature since LR v.2 when the adjustment brush was introduced.

The adjustment brush as it is currently is great, but to really knock it out of the park there needs to be an adjustment brush for the HSL levels. I find myself needing to adjust the saturation or luminance of a certain color in a certain area, but end up not doing the adjustment for fear of ruining all of the same color in the rest of the photograph. Does anybody else think this should be a good addition?

I'd love to see asking in the HSL panel. It could work in the same way as the adjustment brush, with pins. This would be a great feature, as sometimes I want to change the luminance, but don't want to change it for all of the colors in the image. Local HSL would be great!

This is a feature I really would like. I don't want to jump over to Photoshop to perform this simple task.

Please Adobe. Add this!

I agree with pretty much everyone else. I am really missing HSL in the adjustment brush. Seems like an obvious and powerful enhancment.

Seeing that his has been out there for three years does not give me much hope that we will actually see this any time...

Lightroom: how about an HSL adjustment brush? The targeted adjustment tool in HSL is one of the most powerful tools in Lightroom. I would LOVE to see this become an adjustment brush so that we can selectively adjust only portions of an image. Currently, the HSL too adjusts hue, saturation, and luminescence for the entire image. But, let's say I have an image with a large color range, but I only want to adjust a portion of it, without adjusting the entire image (for example, a portrait session from a beach sunset scene. I want to adjust the sky, without adjusting the model's clothing).

To do this, I would have to either go into Photoshop and use several adjustment layers, masking out the model. Or, I could create multiple virtual copies within Lightroom, adjust each one for the colors I want, and then blend them back together in Photoshop. Either way I am having to make the jump over to Photoshop.

An HSL adjustment brush could prevent this blending step. In the CC14 presentation, Adobe made a big deal about making our workflow faster, and more efficient, while cutting out unnecessary steps. This seems like a big one for us Lightroom users.

This is a feature request to enable HSL sliders for Paintbrush / Gradient and Radial filters in Lightroom. This would allow localised colour, saturation and luma adjustments for powerful editing.

I'd love to be able to manipulate specific colors with a brush! There are many times when there's something in the background (say a red car in the background that I'd like to diminish) and a global color adjustment would mess with something else in the image I don't want to impact (for example red lips). This would definitely save me a few trips to Photoshop for retouching.
