Feature Requests

J'aimerai que la fonction shoot connecté de lightroom (copie les photo en directe sur l'ordianteur (ça ok cela fonctionne) mais que celui-ci propose une fonction de copie également sur la carte SD de l'appareil photo pour avoir une sauvegarde sur l'APN comme le fait Capture one en mode connecté sur n'importe quel APN c'est une option du logiciel.

Hello I would to have the ability to paste all atributes in grid mode from one pic to another. Ctrl+Alt+v paste settings from one pic to another and would be nice if we could also paste the color label.   Also Would be nice to have this feature in the spary mode. A part of spray the label, also spray settings from previous.   Cheers and Thanks . Arthur

All of these new Portrait features, and yet it is nearly impossible to remove dust from headshots (fabric) without a trip to PS, as LR starts to slow down with dozens of clone tool stamps. D&S is also useful to remove long exposure hot pixels that are not automatically identified (night photography, etc.). This would simplify my workflow for several different things I do daily (including not having two 16-bit files residing on my hard drive), and I would think that many people would find it useful.

Provide a way to create new pages completely from scratch by laying out the position of the picture frames and text frames instead of using just the provided templates. I like to do my own layouts that match the text. Also can we have double page layouts where they are linked and cannot be broken apart.

Hi,    might just be me, but I use shift-W to switch in an out of masks frequently. Of course, from time to time I hit command+W instead and LrC quits. Command+W is usually to close a window, but this makes no sense in LrC and quitting is a bit excessive. I'm sure most people would command+Q to quit.   Thanks   Geoff

I would like to request a new feature (if it already exists let me know) that prohibits Lightroom from sampling outside of the cropped area of a photo when using the Remove tools.    I always do retouching after I've made general exposure adjustments and after cropping. However, the remove tools sample from areas that have been cropped out or they blend areas in areas from outside the crop if the painted region is near the edge of the frame. This often means that you have to undo your crop to move the sample and make a more accurate adjustment of the sample point or to increase the area of the object that you're removing that removes all of it frame outside the crop. The AI tools incorporate the areas outside of the crop in their calculations of what is being filled in. So if I try to AI remove an object that is half in and half out of the crop at the edge of the frame, I have to delete what was already generated, undo the crop, then I have to repaint, AI generate, again, the

it would be nice to zoom directly to face, I lose time by moving image to find face. It would speed my work. Just pres Z and automaticaly zoom to face, or if there are many, so zoom to fit all faces. 

please bring this feature to Lightroom Classic, opening eyes with AI or by refernce image

Most have discovered that the resulting DNG file size from AI Denoise is approximately 4 times that of the original raw. ex) Sony A1 50mb photo run thru AI Denoise resturns a ~200b DNG.  This maybe fine for those with only a few photos run thru Denoise but for many it quickly starts to consume a massive amount of drive space.  I tested taking the DNG into Photoshop then saving as TIFF with no compression and the resulting files size was back to 57mb.    There needs to be an option in AI Denoise to have it internally create its output as a TIFF.

I have been using lightroom now for several yaers but one option which i wish would be created would be the option to have some favorirte folder options in the import dialog box. As I have two or three folder I use mainly for importing. but when I change from my sub folder in pictures for example to desktop and want to go back to my sub folder we have to go through the entire folder tree to get to that folder . So having a favorite folders option would make that easier. The same applies when a Card is connected to the computer. lightroom goes to the card first even so i do not need to go there. so then again have to look through the entire computer folders to get to my import folder.

When I'm culling I want to see my pictures in color aswell as black/white. My current workflow is to hover the mouse over a black/white preset, to see the preview on the main monitor, and the second will show it in color.   I think it would be nice if the there was an option to auto-overlay presets - or maybe even the embedded preview - on the second monitor to see if a edit would be right for a picture much quicker and already while culling. Maybe an addition to Grid/Loupe/Survey/Compare/Slideshow. The user selects the new tab and can choose from her/his preset list, and whatever gets chosen there doesn't get applied to the picture, it just behaves as if the mouse was hovering over a preset on the main screen. Now thinking further, there could be the original picture on the main screen, and like four previews for specific presets/edits on the second monitor to see simultaneously. 

why is auto tone so bad sometimes?it cranks up whites to +50 resulting in blown out face.... smh please improve it with some AI magic 😄

Tethered Capture in LR3 was a huge step forward for using LR to capture in a production environment. One UI feature that seems to have been overlooked is a keyboard shortcut for hitting the Capture button. Having to find the cursor and then drag it to the button to click is an annoyance (granted, a small one) when shooting multiple captures throughout the day.

As a 15 year veteran of Lightroom, this is one which would greatly help speed up the workflow process.   The idea: Have a section for edit requests within the Development Module to: Have the ability to Add requests for image editing from clients or team leader. (we would be typing in the requests or pasting them in.) Have the ability to make notes on each request for instance: you can make comments like - I am able to do this request with some modifications. Make comments on what was done to achieve the edit requests. Have the ability to check off requests as they are completed. Have a timer start button for each request, Have a timer stop when they are checked off as complete.   Why the development module?   Better efficiency means better productivity.   In a typical workflow sequence, once images have been selected and filtered, there is no reason to move out of the development module until work is complete.   Having to go back into, say, the li

1st choice would be a complete set of stack ops, but my present need is just to be able to expand a stack so a photo can be selected that's under another. Another solution to my immediate need (and some others) would be to have the 'setSelectedPhotos' method always expand stacks as necessary *and* make active whatever source is needed to make the specified photo(s) selected (at least as an option...).

Firstly, I have searched the discussions here and found plenty of gripes by others, but nothing indicating a workaround or that Adobe is doing anything about it, so please try to resist crucifying me for not being diligent.   Adobe Lightroom Classic 13.0.1; Build 202310121438 (but this behavior has been present for years)   Any time Lightroom is 'working', i.e. importing photos, removing photos from catalog, things that take minutes not seconds, I have found I can't even use Alt-Tab to switch to another window. When I do, the screen flashes and resets my attempt, prevents it, multiple times per second. When Lightroom is not actively working, it still takes two alt-tabs to get to another application in Windows. This behavior is unacceptable. I can only assume Adobe forced this behavior to 'help us', but how can they still believe this is helpful in any way? It diminishes my love for Adobe products significantly, and makes me wonder what they're thinking. Is there anyone out th

Although LR provides a way to preview an output by going into the UI that allows the parameters to be selected to export an image, it is rather cumbersome.  It would be very useful to provide a one-click preview of the contemplated export.  Capture One provides this with an icon that looks like a pair of eyeglasses.   LR has a "Soft Proofing" check box, but I don't know what if anything it does other than turning the background white.  I use my watermark / signature in three colors (white, black and gray), and I use one of them depending on the image.  Currently I don't have a good way to tell which signature might best work for a photo without first exporting it as a JPEG.  Instead, if the Soft Proofing showed me what the exported image actually looked like, I could change my watermark.   Hope this is useful input.

I'm sure most photographers who shoot thousands of images rename their files.  I typically have more than one camera and multiple lenses for each of my project, and before I start shooting, I synchronize all my cameras to the same local time.  When I bring up the raw images in LR, I sort them in the order they were shot, and I rename the images using the following convention:   YY-MMDD Event-#### (Camera, Lens) <other qualifiers>   For example: 23-0913 Istanbul-0563 (LEICA SL2,APO-SUMMICRON-SL 1-2-90 ASPH.) 23-0913 Istanbul-0564 (Fujifilm GFX100 II, GF35-70mmF4.5-5.6 WR)   There are very good reasons for me to be able to rename these files further with a "Search" and "Replace".  The camera and lens names (obtained from the EXIF data) are typically unweildy and create long file names.  I would like to be able to do a search and replace text strings, so I can streamline the names, e.g., into something like: 23-0913 Istanbul-0563 (SL2, SL90APO) 23-

Hi, I have three suggestions for the Reference View UI that Capture One provides, and I hope LR will also.   First, I should be able to use the Shift key to drill down into both images, and also, pan within both images, as long as I am holding down the Shift key.  This lets me quickly compare two images for sharpness, micro contrast, color, etc. at different parts of an image.   Second, I should be able to click to select either image in situ and be able to edit it.  I might be comparing two images from two different cameras, and I might like the way the greens were rendered in one and the magentas were rendered in the other, and neither image might have been perfect.  So I ought to be able to tweak either image to bring it closer to the other.  If the Reference image is a "gold standard" that should not be disturbed, then it is easy to provide an edit lock for that image.  Currently, the only way I can edit the reference image on the left is by also

In my opinion, Adobe have given up the amateur enthusiast photographer customer segment. The amount of marketing doublespeak required to "justify" Adobe's decisions points to its major flaws: Adobe promised (https://blogs.adobe.com/.../lightroom-and-the-creative-cloud....) to keep offering a perpetual license in future versions, thereby influencing buyer decision for Lightroom 6. Then they made it very hard to actually buy the perpetual license version of LR 6, and now they argue that buyers were deliberately choosing the CC version. I believe a significant number of LR users are in the same segment as me: Amateur enthusiast photographers who need a photo management and RAW developer tool, but do not use it on more than one or two devices. For those users, the choice of the perpetual license made the most sense. I am unwilling to pay a monthly amount which will add up the normal upgrade price in under a year, unless it provides me with significant advantages. So, about those advantages

A MUCH needed tool for the high volume professionals / teams.    HIGH VOLUME:  Corporate headshots School photographers  Sports photographers   The ability to use Lightroom's already powerful facial recognition neaural tools for making crop/resize/repositioning adjustments across hundreds or even thousands of photos would be a massive time saving update and likely a feature that would win back many professionals who have converted to: Capture One Pixnub Third party AI tools   By way of using a simple reference image or outline the program could run automatically making these adjustments subtly while conforming to a predetermined crop.    Please implement this feature. The world of pros who use these tools will thank you.   

As a user, it would greatly enhance my workflow if we could Auto-Stack via AI evaluated structure or style.   Similar to how Auto-Stack by Capture Time currently evaluates and "guesses" at your stacks based on when you shot, having the ability to sort and group based on actual image evaluation and composition would be amazing.Two sliders to make it even MORE awesome :1. similar to hallucination on the Firefly API, one slider to vary "how tightly" images should be grouped in composition style.     2. Ability to select a "core" image - select your core image, find "similar" image compositions in your own existing libraries and folders.   (similar to find duplicate functions on AEM DAM?)Had great conversations with the developers at Adobe MAX, would love to see what can be done with this!

For many photographers the IPTC Extended fields play a big role in organizing and finding images. Therefore it is crucial that this information is searchable. But neither the Text filter nor the Metadata list filter make use of this metadata. This should be implemented since not being able to use IPTC Extended metadata within Lightroom is a big disadvantage.

I am newly exploring the HDR (and jxl) formats and it is wonderful to see highlights from my camera's DNG files finally being seen (on a 10bit display), and on iPhones too for that matter.   However, there is little general support for HDR output and the default rendering of an HDR file to SDR is terrible. I've developed a work flow that is ok, but would like to suggest an improvement.   (1) HDR Edit is my master edits and I'm doing everything there. (2) Create a Virtual Copy of this, turn OFF HDR, and do "Auto" for the basic slider settings.   With a few minor tweaks, this is good enough actually, at least for a vast majority of the use cases I have in mind.   So, my request: In the HDR Settings, there is an "SDR Rendition Settings". I know these sliders are a little different, but I wonder if we could have an "Auto" button that would do much the same as what I'm doing manually above?   The default rendering of these settings is terrible - the standard what an

I'd really love to see a way of automating the upgrading of catalogs.  It's twice this year this has needed to occur (13.4, and now 14).   I have a LOT of catalogs. I'm part way through upgrading them to v14 and have done 70 catalogs so far, with probably 50 to go.   Opening each one which takes probably 10 seconds to get to the dialog where you then need to confirm that you want to upgrade, wait for it to upgrade (minutes), then quit, then move to the next one is laboriously slow and tedious.   It would be great to have a command line where I could add in the catalog name/path and some upgrade parameter and it to automatically do the magic, quit.   I could quickly build this into a script (I'm on Mac - so BASH) with 100's of lines with each one calling the upgrade which would then invoke, do the upgrade, quit, and then do the next one in the script, etc.  This means I could do it all unattended overnight / break it into pieces, whatever suits me.
