Since LR Classic 13 there is a search function for the own development presets. A search function for the presets for the brushes etc. would also be desirable. ! Thanks!

Hi, I don't understand why the new Point color is not available in a B&W picture edited from an original in color. It could be nice to adjust HSL in a specific area based on the original color file, even if we are in a monochrom adjsutments session. Thanks

The impact of the sliders in the development module is linear. It would be great if you could change this to exponential on a keystroke I.e pressing Shift-Control plus Sliding  makes the scale exponential.  normally you like to change the value of exposure, dark, white just be tiny steps from zero. If the scale of the slider is exponential you have better control. 

Edit Capture Time issue - When I select a number of photos and use "Adjust to a specified date and time", rather than all having the specified date & time they are changed but have different dates & time around what was specified. Have not determined pattern, maybe offset from original date.Windows 7 SP1 64bit, Lightroom 5.2

It would be nice if the automated word wrap feature found in so many adobe products would also be available when adding Text Overlays to Slides in Lightroom Classic. I like to add a good bit of detail in my photo captions, but when I try to display the text in my slides, the text will remain in one line only and spills outside the slide template. Yes, you can reduce the font size by manipulating the bounding box size, but then the text becomes too small to read.  It looks like I can add unicode characters to the text field, but none of them seem to have any effect in the Slideshow module. Automated word wrap; at least as an option, but be very helpful!

Over the years many of us have created, saved and applied Custom Curves to our images.These curves predate the Implementation of the new ExtendedToneCurvePV2012 and ExtendedMainCurve that have been introduced with HDR. This means that the curves in our library of presets or in our edited images, are not easily and flexibility usable for HDR...but it should not be the case.E.gThis S shaped Custom Curve was created in LrC 12 and this curve woks efficiently for the underlying Histogram.     When we apply this curve (via a preset for instance) to an HDR image with comparable or nearly identical underlying histogram this is this result.This curve doens't work anymore, it is limited to SDR region because that's all we what had before LrC 13.The user must re-draw the entire S curve to make it work for HDR  or must create a new preset but neither of the two operations is fast. Having to recreate HDR versions of our curves is a significant endeavor. &nbs

Hi all. Please allow us to create a Vitrual Copy from a Histry Step, Preset and Snapshot.   I suggest the following methods in the Develop Module.   . Cmd/Ctrl + right click on Step/Preset/Snaphsot to create a VC . Right Click on Step/Preset/Snaphsot > Create a VC   Also it should be possible to create VC form a Snapshot using the following:   Library > Right Click or Photo >  Develop Settings  > Sanpshots > "Name of Snapshot" > Create VC Develop Module > Right Click > Develop Settings  > Sanpshots > "Name of Snapshot" > Create VC

At today it is impossible to paste/sync Healing and Merge it, alas LrC only "Replaces" healing.   Please allow to Paste, Sync and Merge Healing.   We are already given the choice to Merge or Replace masks so it's only natural and logical to have the same for Healing. .

Kolor Punku przydalo by się wiekszy zakres wyboru koloru. Nieraz brakuje mi szerszego zakresu koloru. np. na tym zdjęciu kolor można tylko regulować w tej ciemniejszej partii chmur a już na jaśniejszych częściach chmur nie idzie. trzeba próbkować drugi raz na jaśniejszy kolor. Fajnie by było jak by można było to za jednym razem regulować.

New Feature .

This should be a pretty easy feature to add and it would be a great help in the setup for auto-stack.   The relevant window shows how many stacks there will be, but it does not currently say what the sizes of those stacks will be.  A line listing all of the stack sizes, e.g.       Stack sizes:  1, 3, 5 might tell a user that the setting is right whereas a line showing:      Stack sizes: 3, 26 would probably suggest shrinking down the interval a bit.   

The removal tools in Lightroom are very good and I'm very happy with them but the removal tool in Photoshop is really a game changer. It would be nice if the removal tool from Photoshop was also available in Lightroom

I'm trying to repair an old Rob Cole plugin with Chat GPT, and it's occurred to me that it makes no sense how hard it is to determine the preset folder. Rob had a process that fell over if you had two catalogs with different settings under the same Windows user environment. I'm redoinhg it so it reads the largest file in the preferences location, parses it for the storewithcatalog setting, defaults back to appdata if it isn't there, otherwise takes the respective setting and then uses the respective path from the SDK. Any chance Adobe can augment the SDK PathUtils to find the applicable presets root path along with the other standard folders? Can't help feeling that anything we can do is rickety and could fall over. And imagine there are a few similar bits of rickety code out there...

I'm trying to write a new preset that resets the new Point Color section and I am unable to reset that particular section.   Any ideas?   Rich

Hello, I would love for Lightroom to offer the equivalent to the Photoshop "marquee" tool so that I can easily select and deselect a specific area. The reason I need this tool is to have an accurate histogram reading of the selected area.  For now I'm using the crop tool but it's very time consuming. Thank you for your consideration!

Right now there's a single automatic "subject" selection for the focal range. Any surface I want to add is manual, using brushing, which is tedious and inaccurate. It would be nice to be able to point at other objects and have the AI detect them and add/replace them as the focus surface. Add is even more important than replace, because selecting a person as the initial focal surface is usually appropriate, but fixing errors around the subject person is difficult at the moment.

Editing smart collection criteria is cumbersome. Write an edit utility that runs outside Lightroom.  Make this utility open source (e.g. github) so people can enhance it.

List out all the unique photos in each catalog and all the photos contained in both catalogs.  For duplicates, list out the DEVELOP history and highlight differences.

I see a lot of questions about features and configuration in the BOOK module.  Third party plug-ins could address many of these points.

Facial Recognition has serious issues, and in my experince, often suggests the wrong name for a person.

I use the filmstrip in the map module, but never in the library view or the develop module. It would be desirable if it is remembered module-specifically whether the filmstrip was shown or not.

Hello After upgrading to LR Classic 11 (Windows 10 21H1) I realized that the icons for crop/resize, repair tool and the new masking functionality are too small on my 4k screen - on my second monitor (2k resolution) everything looks fine. I attached a screenshot: Left = 4k screen, Right = 2k screen. Can you check and fix this for the  next release? Thanks, Thomas  

Hi all. In order to jump directly into HDR editing we could have a practical "Create HDR Virtual Copy" option in the "Photo" menu. I suggest also to assign the following KBSC for the option: Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + '    Without an Adobe kbsc one could still assign a custom kbsc to the option via Any Shortcut by @johnrellis    I know we can do the taks in 2 steps "Create VC > activate HDR" but I think the most common and best workflow is to create a VC for HDR so the option and the direct KBSC would be practical.   Creating a HDR VC could also be achievable by "Shift + click HDR button = VC is created with that mode already enabled"   .      

Lightroom displays a histogram as a line chart with semi-transparent areas under the curve making it easy to see each individual series. Lightroom Classic displays an area chart for its histogram making it impossible to see hidden details of those series behind the front ones. Is there a way to configure Lightroom Classic to be the same style chart?
