Feature Requests

Ich habe folgendes Problem, für das man mir im Chat keine Lösung vorschlagen konnte: Über meine Kameras werden alle Bilder mit meinem Namen und  meiner Anschrift gespeichert. Diese Metadaten werden von LrC gespeichert. Die Folge davon ist, dass alle Suchbegriffe, die den Namen meines Wohnortes oder den Straßennamen (in meinem Fall "Frankfurter Str" enthalten immer dazu führen, dass alle meine Bilder angezeigt werden. Es macht für mich also keinen Sinn, nach dem Begriff "Frankfurt" zu filtern, obwohl ich die Bilder damit getagt hatte, da automatisch auf allen Bildern meiner Bibliothek dieser Begriff enthalten ist.  <   Frankfurter Str. >  Ich wünsche mir daher, dass Lightroom die Anschrift in den Metadaten ignoriert. Übrigens auch Vornamen! Liebe Grüße von Stephan 

I have clients that want to find images that fit their application in a particular room.  It would be nice to be able to place an image of the room in the background of either library or develop mode and then cycle through the pictures to see which image fit the room best.

In the import dialogue in Lightroom 3 on Windows the drive letters A: and B: does not show up. I have A: assigned to an HDD and B: assigned to an SSD where I like to save my DNG files. (It was a VERY long time ago since those drive letters were reserved for floppy drives). My suggestion is to make all drive letters assigned to an attached storage device visible as a destination in the import dialogue.

Hello everyone.Currently when we duplicate a Mask we can't immediately rename it.We must first duplicate THEN rename2 history steps are created/needed for no real reason. I suggest to immediately allow to rename as we duplicate a Mask. E.g.   At this point the user can simply "Enter" or click "Ok" to commit the default duplicate name  OR the user can instead rename the Mask as something else.  Instead of two history steps this would create only one step which reduces the clutter, keeps the catalog lighter and overall is more efficient. .

when photographing in fast paced situations  it's hard to always make sure the camera is level, eventhough the camera does have a Digital level gauge (Virtual Horizon) . I assume that the tilting angle is also recorded somehow in the exif, so it would be amazing if one of the options to  Auto-straighten would be according to "camera level indicator".   

I would sometimes find it helpful to make a note of exactly what has been done for extensive edits. Or where the difference lies compared to another image. For this reason, I am missing an option in the development module to add a note or comment to an image.

I've uploaded 3 videos taken by DJI Mavic 2 Pro to Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zqm8walmuahk7bc/AADAg5Amt8dV2eQbsNXf7w2xa?dl=0 DLog-M.MOV -- HEVC -- DLog-M -- can't imported by Lightroom Classic HLG.MOV -- HEVC -- HLG -- can't imported by Lightroom Classic Rec.709.MOV -- HEVC -- maybe Rec.709 -- imported to Lightroom Classic sucessful When importing DLog-M.MOV and HLG.MOV, Lightroom Clssic failed and reports "The video file appears to be corrupted or unrecognizable. It has no audio or video streams"Please support DJI Mavic 2 videos, because it's becoming a significant tool for professional photographers. After a long wait, photographers are difficult to deal with large amount of video files.Test environment: Lightroom 9.2.1 on macOS 10.15.4Tested on June 7th, 2020, EVERYTING is updated to date.Note: This conversation was created from a reply on: Lightroom Classic and CC: Please support HEVC (H.265) video support for Windows.

Lightroom: Many times while working with a large number of images (any amount for that matter) while viewing using the filmstrip,especially while in the Slideshow or Loupview, but really any module. To very simply have a "HOME" and an "END" key. To very simply take you back to the beginning or the end of the filmstrip. One click, Done! No more scrolling and scrolling ! This would be HUGE! dj

Hello,In the "Person mask option" window, why not allow to check "Whole person" and also "create separate masks". This way, all masks are selected without having to check all the boxes one by one.Best regards,A.H.

The Color Mixer sliders are great, but they don't offer as much control as a series of curves when altering HSL. For example, if I wanted to target a range of hue between orange and red, I can't.  The screenshot below, from a video application, shows the type of curves that make these adjustments possible: Just as with the Color Mixer sliders, I can take an input hue and rotate it. Unlike the Color Mixer sliders, I can decide the precise range of the input hue(s) and create a smooth adjustment. Changing the Color Mixer sliders into curves would still give intuitive controls, but far more powerful.

Prior to Lightroom Classic 11, when a preset with masks was applied, any previous masks were replaced.  With the new mask model in version 11, masks in presets are added to whatever masks were already present.  As this is a departure from the previous behavior, there should at least be an option to mimic the old behavior.   Note that when syncing Develop settting between two photos that both have masks, Lightroom brings up a dialog to ask if the masks should be replaced or merged. At the very least this option should exist for presets that contain masks too.   The workaround today is to "Delete All Masks" before applying a preset with masks.  This is an extra step I'd rather not have to remember to do.

I often export photos several times and to different folders. It would really help if Lightroom listed what folders I had exported a photo to, and when

Hi,   The new denoise feature in LR 12.3 is great - much better than the old sliders - but...   Does anyone else find the magnification on the preview window too high? The most important thing when assessing what strength of denoise to apply is the impact it's having on image sharpness. And you can't see that properly with the preview at greater than 100%. The only options seem to be the whole image or a section of it at what looks like somewhere between 200 and 300% with no ability to select any magnification anywhere in between. Unless you can and I haven't figured out how. If we can only have one magnification level in the preview window it should be 100%.

Well, very unfortunately, and completely 100% user error but hey that's how mistakes occur... I got the indicator for "do you want to import settings from disk?" Yes, in this case I did. On one image. But I had my complete project set highlighted at the time and... poof.   Every edit I had made in today's edit session (only 2 hours...) went away, back to the original file "from disk". Everything - crops, clone/heal, develop settings, etc. Everything.    no problem... hit UNDO.   Uh, oops. No. That doesn't work.   So, because things are blissfully NON DESTRUCTIVE... should there not be a way to undo this gaffe/slip? I would HOPE so, because Undo is Undo. But...no luck here and I've had to re-edit to make my turnaround time deadline. Lesson learned, as always. But wow. Painful lesson.Suggestion to future developer changes in Lightroom Classic --- is there a way to redundantly write the xml / sidecar / catalog settings containing the edits to another file that WOU

HI all. Small idea:   Allow to create "Sync Metadata Presets" so that we can quickly select the fields to sync.   Potential UI   OR  

Here is an idea, what if using AI, Adobe could identify subjects in a frame, and add a radial filter around them? I know we can select a background, but it would be nice to be able to add a graduated filter around the subjects.    Use cases would be exposure vignettes, light corrections, color gradations, etc. I would find this extremely useful as a portrait & wedding photographer who uses vignettes when my compositions vary from shot to shot. 

Salve, non ho trovato una sessione riguardo ai suggerimenti delle nuove versioni di lightroom... comunque volevo suggerire una nuova funzione... spero che questo mio post possa giungere ai programmatori... Mi piacerebbe nelle impostazioni di anteprima del secondo monitor, oltra al lentino dinamico che segue il mause per visionare l'anteprima al 100%, trovare una nuova funzione di lentino "VISI". In questo modo con una sorta di riconoscimento dei visi, il lentino farebbe visionare automaticamente i visi dei soggetti per il controllo di precisione del fuoco. Questo penso velocizzerebbe moltissimo il flusso di lavoro inerente proprio alla selezione delle foto. Speriamo qualcuno attenzioni questa mia richiesta da utente professionista! Saluti Daniele

Propose having hot buttons to preselect total number of thumbnails per row in Library grid mode. This would speed up zooming in and out of photos grid for a better view for culling purposes (ie marking colors, flag). At times you want see the forest and at times you need to have a quick view to reveal out of focus photos which are not obvious in forest view. The present slider is at times slow to respond. On the 4K display the max without side panels display its 24. Propose to have 5, 10, 15, 20 quick buttons.Attached is an approximate visual representation  

The following function would be very helpful for assessing the colour distribution in the image and for determining the white balance:   Idea:Possibility of hiding the brightness curve in the histogram / displaying only the 3 coloured curves.   Problem:The brightness curve is currently superimposed on the 3 coloured curves, making it somewhat more difficult to assess the colour distribution.   Possible solution:Right-click on the histogram, the option to hide the brightness curve is offered here. Many thanks

Export to more than one folder at the same time. Obviously using the same export settings

When Folders and Albums in the Adobe Cloud are synced to Lightroom Classic (LrC), LrC converts the Folders to Collection Sets and the Albums to Collections, and places them under a top-level Collection Set called "From Lightroom."   However, the system does not do the reverse. If you create Collection Sets and Collections in LrC, and then sync them to the Adobe Cloud, Lightroom Web (LrW) and Lightroom Desktop (LrD) ignore the Collection Sets and it converts only the Collections. The result is a long list of albums in LrW and LrD without any folders. To me/for me, the system is creating a mess in LrW and LrD as I now have one set of Folders and Albums that were created in LrD and a whole lot of albums that were created in LrC. How are you supposed to quickly find anything?   Please change this so you can sync Collection Sets in LrC with Folders in LrW and LrD.

Please allow to copy Global Point Curve and paste it in a Local Point Curve in Masking. Use Case 1. User edits Point Curve in Tone Curve or Masking (e.g I did it in Tone Curve)  2. Users wants to reuse the existing curve and apply it to a Local Curve (in this case the Correction has the default Linear Curve)   3 . User must: A. save the curve as a "Curve Preset"  B. Go into Making or Tone Curve and apply that "Custom Curve Preset" C. Delte the preset because it was meant for one use only. Is a waste of time to do ABC for such a task. It should be possible to Copy and Paste Global Point Curve and use it in Masking or vice versa. Given the use case provided this is what happens at each step internally. 1. ToneCurvePV2012 =[1] = 0,[2] = 0,[3] = 47,[4] = 32,[5] = 156,[6] = 158,[7] = 197,[8] = 223,[9] = 255,[10] = 255}, 2. ExtendedMainCurve  (missing) 3.  After "Copy and Paste" the Curve to s

When importing files in Lightroom Classic they occasionally appear grayed out, indicating Lightroom recognizes them as already in your Libray. At this point, I must cancel the import and attempt to find the files in the Library myself. Due to my extensive library locating the images can be difficult and time-consuming. It would be great if, as in the Library Module, you could control-click on the grayed-out image in the Import window and be given the option (in the resulting contextual menu) to "Go to Folder in the Library". Lightroom would then need to close the import window and open the Library module, highlighting the folder containing the suspected duplicates in the navigation panel on the left. I LOVE and often use this feature in the Libray Module and would LOVE to see it implemented in the Import module.   [Moved to "Ideas" by moderator]

The Enhance dialog should explain why Denoise or Raw Details are greyed out by providing a simple explanation:   Denoise and Raw Details don't work on the selected file types: <file types>   where <file types> provides the precise file formats of the selected files: mRAW, sRAW, linear DNG, JPEG, TIFF, PSD, PSB, etc.  LR has that information internally -- it just needs to show it to the user.   In addition, Learn More should link to a page that provides a comprehensible explanation. Right now, it just says "any Bayer or X-Trans RAW files" -- how many non-nerd users know what those are?   This trivial change would avoid hours of user frustrations and needless FAQs here.    

Snapshot default name as the last step in History not as a date and time. This could be only as an option, set up in preferences. Something like export files naming that is customizable.Examples of potential snapshots names base on order number and last step.{#} - {last step} 🙂 Snapshots: "03 - BW 1 02 - Adaptive Engance Portrait 01 - Exposure +0.55"     Reason: This would make list of snapshot less enigmatic. The 'date and time' is sorted nicely chronologically but tells us nothing about the nature of the particular snapshot itself.Snapshot names like: "2024-01-18 10:03:19 PM"make sure they are not duplicated and in order but are vague about its' content.
