Feature Requests

It would be great if Lightroom came with an easy and quick way to give an option to MERGE ALL duplicate keywords. Right now I am using a hierarchy of Alphabet listing so I don't hit the limit of keywords that make them not show on the list. But that brings new problems like when one keyword is already inside one hierarchy (lets say letter A) and you have the same world outside it, you cannot drag them inside the hierarchy because the same keyword exists already there. So suddenly you have the same word in multiple places. It might be useful for some limited things, but in my case I would like to merge that keyword into one and not have them scattered in or out of my alphabet hierarchy. There is a slow a cumbersome method to solve that as explained in Lightroom Queen, but it would take weeks in my case to fix all the keywords.   Please Adobe solve all the Keywords issues that you are dragging now for years without any path.   Thank you.

Cuando seleccionamos las fotos desde la biblioteca ¿Hay alguna manera de recortar directamente desde la biblioteca .... sino estaria bien esa opción 

Dear Lightroom-Team, please add the feature that when you select a rating filter, Lightroom will not jump to the first image in the catalog but to the closest image, which matches the rating criteria. Short explanation: If I set the filter for "Photos rated 1-star", all images with 1-star will be displayed. If at this moment I display an image that is rated with 1-star, exactly this image will continue to be displayed. However, if I show an unrated image and then set the filter, LR shows me all images with "1-star" and at the same time jumps to the FIRST image in the selection that has 1-star. If I have 5000 images in a project collection, am working in about the middle of the collection and now set a filter, LR automatically jumps to the START of the collection and I have to go back to the middle of the collection and find my last image I was working on - super annoying. It would be great if there was a setting for this so that I can determine for myself whether the closest or the fir

Allow Month name to be in alphabetical order in Lightroom Classic in the Library and Import Module for Exp - January Febuary, March ....

We all know that the tone curve module holds a heavy influence on the overall look of an image, but given the complexity of how individual curves and RGB channels interact with one another (think luminance, contrast, color cast), I'm always left asking myself: Why can't I individually preview each curve and channel?    Much like the Color Grading and recently updated Masking Modules, I'm asking for Adobe to bring those "toggle preview" features to the Tone Curve, affecting the Parametric/Point curves and the Red, Green, and Blue channels. I attached a handful of screenshots that detail an example of the toggle preview from the Masking Module, and where the action/function of the feature can be placed in the Tone Curve Module.    Being able to preview each curve/channel individually will bring immense benefits when tweaking the input/output values. Thus, users would have the ability to pinpoint and isolate how certain curves/channels are influencing the entire look o

When importing from a legacy archive disk we can easily have 50,000+ files but we only want perhaps the RAW, PSD, TIF files.  All of the other importable file extensions could be ignored, but there is no way to simply filter the input.  Other times we may want to inpurt only images over2Mb, or images from the last 2 months.  It would be great to have that as a possibility.As well it would be nice to see the By Size filter added to the standard metafilters on the library page

Is there anyway to use the amazing masking tools within Lightroom Classic to create a transparent section. For example, background remover (object selection which can then be a separate virtual copy). I know I can make it white or do a multiple step and take it over into photoshop but considering Lightroom Classic can export a transparent PNG, it makes sense to have this feature in Lightroom Classic. Please Adobe Gods, could you please make this happen? Thank you!

Coming from CaptureOne I'm a bit dismayed by the way sharpness works in Lightroom (or rather doesn't work). The images look very mushy in comparison and when I increase the sharpness it quickly turns into artifacts that look like tiny worms.   I get better results when reducing sharpness in Lightroom and then sharpening again in Photoshop (Smart Sharpen, small radius, high percentage).   Wouldn't it make sense to improve this setting and / or implement sharpening algorithms from Adobe Photoshop? The additional processing time is miniscule (if there's one at all) and it would save a lot of time and the images would look much better right from the start.   

At navigator zoom options, I would like to see Fit without upscale. So fill the area for large images, and show smaller images at 100% if they fit.

To see a file in the OS, you use Command or Control R (Show in Finder/Explorer). To see where it lives in the folders panel, you have to right click then select Go to Folder in Library'. It's probably my most used contextual command and is located beside Show in Finder. The shortcut Shift Command/Control R is available and would be a perfect match to the existing Show in Finder command. Please can this be a future JDI item?  

Hi, While adding individual picture cells and text cells in a book is a great new feature, I wonder how can I create those cells with identical sizes?There is neither an opportunity to just copy and paste an existing cellnor can I see details regarding size (x/y values) and the exact position of the cell. Unfortunately, there is also currently no possibility to align boxes. The ability to add individual cells is really great and I guess some of us were waiting for year on it. However, a page of a photo book should look professional and therefore it must be possible to determine the exact size of cells, their position and to align them vertically, horizontally or to evenly distribute them on a page.I hope you got my point. If not: please try to create a page with 3 x 3 photo cells of identical sizes...ThanksChristian

Here’s an idea for a useful feature in a future version of Lightroom Classic- allow a contextual click on an image (or thumbnail) to copy the image file name. So the pop up window would display the option to copy the file name to the clipboard. And maybe even better, add a key command to do the same thing.   I can’t tell you how many times I have to select an image, use Command + R to find original, then click on it, then hit enter, then Command + C just to get the file name into the clipboard- would be in the thousands!   Yes, I know I can go to the Metadata tab in the sidebar, open it, select File Name field, and copy that, but also being able to do it in one step would be a time saver. Thanks.

Hi,   I often use Super Resolution + Enhance Details to counter diffraction effects in pictures shot at narrow apertures, it's really good at that, pretty amazing what comes out if you use it to upscale and enhance, and then downsize the output to original size.    I realise this is very much a first world problem, but having an extra checkbox in Super Resolution dialog window where we currently have: - Raw Details (on/off) - Super Resolution (on/off)   My suggestion would be to add one more option that will downsize output to original size, maybe something like: - Downsize to original image size (on/off)   Saves a few clicks but the value added is that this makes it more obvious right from the UI that Super Resolution can be used in this way, to a great effect

LrC Sélection des objets et personnes, ajouter une option pour la possibilité d'exécuter ces sélections via AI sur les serveurs comme dans Photoshop  et ceci pour plus de précision dans la sélection des contours, car dans PS la différence est souvent très grande entre la sélection de l'IA sur le poste de travail ou le serveur.

I use a lot lightroom for tethering fashion catalogue.  I think that rulers in LR is a too poor tool.  Rulers should be more thin and we can only move a couple of axes. I can see it in library but disappear while i try to crop the image (it would be the most useful situation to use them) Also i really miss the possibility to overlap an image as reference for setting rulers and crop all pictures right. 

Hi everyone   Since upgrading from Lightroom CC to Lightroom Classic CC a few days ago, in the Developer mode, the color/brightness of the grid lines is medium to dark grey. They are very hard to see now on any photos. Before the upgrade the grid lines were more like white or a very light grey.   How can I change the grid line color/brightness to a light grey or white color?   Thanks Michael

File > Auto Import > Auto Import Settings forgets the previous setting of Add To Collection and always displays it unchecked, even when it was previously checked. Tested on LR 12.1 / Mac OS 12.6.1.   To reproduce:   1.Do File > Auto Import > Auto Import Settings.   2. Check Enable Auto Import and Add To Collection, selecting an existing collection.   3. Verify Auto Import works by dragging a photo into the watched folder.   4. Do File > Auto Import > Auto Import Settings and observe that Add To Collection is unchecked (bug).   This bug has been around since time immemorial, but the original bug report appears to have gotten lost. See these threads for relatively recent reports of the issue: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/problem-auto-import-to-a-collection/m-p/11575854 https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/auto-import-s-quot-add-to-collection/m-p/11642026 https://community.adobe.co

First, let me say I've used Lightroom since it was born, so I'm well versed in LR Classic. I have an iMac and MacBook Pro both running Big Sur with LR vs 12.1. I do not have this problem on the iMac, but on my MBP, I'm having a problem using the new content aware tool and the spot removal tool. In previous versions, the sample area and the fixed area were well defined, with the sample area having a slightly heavier line around it. Now, I can barely see an edge to what I'm selecting to be “fixed” with either tool. After using the spot removal tool, I can barely see either the fixed area or the sample area (yes, my cursor is over the icon), so I can't very easily move the sample area to improve what the tool did. I've zoomed in, but that's seems to be even worse. On both computers, I have the Tool Overlay set to Auto — I've tried each setting with no difference. Please, does anyone have a solution to get my edges back so I can see what I'm selecting?

Request for change   In the Object Masking panel, add a button to execute the mask creation as opposed to the mask creation occurring upon mouse release. This could allow for complex object selections without resorting to multiple Additions. This is not a request for the Done button coming back, this is a request for basically a start button being created.   Example workflow, currently   Image has, say three separate objects to be in the one mask, objects are not near one another.

These days with high bust rates used more often, culling has become quite a chore.  I notice that in OM WorkSpace, there is a facility that selects a number of the sharpest images in a burst series of like images.  If this can select say 5 of the shapest images in a burst of 20, that reduces the culling workload by 75%.  I would think this a very worthwhile feature.

The ability to search for similar photos and videos within our own Lightroom or Bridge folders. Our phones can do this, as well as countless other apps. Could you please finally implement this simple feature into Lightroom Classic? Even across all of your software, including adobe bridge? It will be very useful to everybody. Thank you so much! Not everyone managed to properly keyword tag their photos unfortunately.  

A very simple thing. If I am in Library module and I press "R" to resize a picture Lightroom goes directly to Dev module, perfect.I would like to see the same thing as I hit "Y" in Library to see an original image vs the developed one.    Thank you

W Panelu Kadrowanie i prostowanie przydały by sie ikony obracania takie jakie są w Lightroom i ACR

is there a way to hide the panel arrows. the arrows still take up spaces after the panel is hidden. it would nice to have a shortcut to hide the panel arrows if one is familiar with the shortcuts to hide the panels.

After I import my photos to LrC I rate the potentially good ones with one star and assing color labels to them based on what I want to do. Green is HDR merge, Blue is Compositing different images together, then when I have spent some time tweaking the image, but still think I can improve, I'll give it a Purple label. When I filter for a specific rating, or more often a color label, I sometimes find stacked images. HDRs, Panoramas, or images I stacked myself, virtual copies even. If I then change the rating or the color label on the main image on the stack, nothing will happen to the other images on the stack and vice-versa. If I have a filter so I only see a color label or a rating, I won't see the images on the stack which have a different label or rating to the main image on the stack. I have attached an image showing the behavior as of now.   I understand this behavior, and I agree this should be the default way. I have been working with it for a while now, but I believe i
