Feature Requests

I would like to use Slideshow to display my HDR edited images on an HDR comptible monitor? Is that feature in the works? I'm getting a little frustrated with Adobe. Having developed the fanatastic HDR capability, and not having an effective way to disly multiple images in a slideshow.

Please show full path when I select path from "Catalog contents" I can't see it , there's no tooltip that shows the full name, which gives me trouble trying to figure it out through the images.

it would be great to add the ability to filter the photos in Culling mode by emotions on the face, or at least smiling, crying ...

Hello,   I'm just curious to know how many years we will wait, if that day will come, to see the option to cull (browse/zoom/compare) the photos before to import them in the library. If I'm thinking at how many years we waited to see the just the LABELS in Lr...   Please Adobe, also if you're earing much more money from the consumers take care for the professionals.

I'm so thankful that finally we can zoom while having the crop tool active. I have been asking for this for literally over a decade! Also being able to leave the crop active while switching photos helps my workflow a lot!   There is one thing that has mysteriously changed for the worse when cropping though...   Before V15, I used to be able press O until the grid overlay mode was active, then when holding alt/option I could use the scroll wheel to change the size of the grid (actively! every scroll click would immediately change the grid size while alt/option was down)   In V15, if I use the scroll wheel in the same setting when holding down alt/option, nothing happens until I let go of the alt/option key, only then does the grid change size! This adds a ton of unnecessary work having to tap and un-tap the alt key with every scroll wheel click just to see the grid change ... it was much, much more efficient before in 14.X! Hopefully this small bug can

Is there a way to search for images in LR Classic by original file name?   Thank you!   Message was edited by: Akash Sharma

Lightroom Classic would greatly benefit from a “Select Similar” feature in the Library module. For example, selecting one screenshot (PNG or specific resolution) would allow you to quickly highlight all similar images by metadata or visual similarity. This streamlines deleting screenshots, burst photos, or selecting a set of photos to add to a custom library, or find a particular type of shot. It would save time and reduce clutter when handling large mixed catalogs. I work on Windows, Lightroom Classic version 14.4, and auto-import from Android as well as working with my camera.

Hi Adobe team 👋 First of all, congratulations on bringing the new “Remove Dust” feature directly into Lightroom Classic. It works incredibly well — the AI mapping and automatic cleanup of lens dust is a huge time-saver and very accurate. I’d like to suggest extending this feature to cover another common issue: dead or burned pixels caused by sensor damage. In my case, my camera sensor was hit by a laser, and now I have a few fixed pixel spots that show up in every photo. With a fixed lens, the position is consistent and easier to correct, but with zoom lenses, the location shifts slightly, forcing me to manually fix each image one by one. It would be amazing if Lightroom Classic could include a “Remove Pixel Damage” option — detecting and correcting recurring pixel artifacts across a batch of images. I believe this could be implemented similarly to the dust removal logic and would help many photographers dealing with aging sensors or accidental damage. Thanks for considering th

I am shooting with Fujifilm but it seem the problem is related to several brands. How can i keep the original file name (the same recorded in the memory card) when tethering the camera?  I know that it' possible to set a  custom name/sequence, but i can't find a way to keep the original naming.   thanks    

Being a wedding photographer our utmost need is AI Culling ( selection of content with a given criteria ) after storage & proper correction Because it will take most of the time of us to share best images to cliant So Just for culling we have to move towards other application rest all can be manage by lightroom so i thing they should add this feature as soon as possible to help wedding photographers need thanks

Since 2015, there are no more interesting inovations. I think it's an insolence that Lightroom can not export 4k video. That can't be a challenge for a programmer to provide a corresponding function. The are a lot of users asked for the support of PSB files in Lightroom, but Adobe do nothing. Adobe must be ashamed that file formats from their own house are not supported. For me is also a big mystery why Photoshop write  a file of more that 3GB for a picture with 2 layers. There are still a lot to do but Adobe presents us again and again only small chunks. I do not know how much longer I want to pay for it.I feel confused as a customer.

This may have already been suggested, but it would be nice if the zoom feature in Lightroom 4 could be enabled while using the crop tool to make refined adjustments to the crop area. At present, there is only a clumsy work-around using the secondary display for refined crop adjustments.

The ai auto stacking shows the stacks closed so you can't see if it's stacked the photos correctly and then if it hasn't you have to keep opening the the auto stack slider to try guess if it's done a good job . I think it would be better if it showed the stacks open with the first photo of each stack being highlighted then you can see which photos are being put where as you move the slider.

This is going to sound very petty, but it's an annoyance that's been around for so long that it drives me crazy.Is there a way to make Lightroom remember the position of the tether bar? Whenever tethering is restarted, or just after waking the camera to continue a session, the tether bar moves back to it's default position. I hate it there and have to move it up to the top of the screen out of the way of the main window every time. While shooting products, I have to do this many times during a shoot and it just seems so weird to me.   Am I the only one who cares, or have I just not been able to find this in preferences?

It would be lovely if I could select a field, such as a wall or sky, and tell LR to even out the tones in the brush-delineated area, to eliminate blotchiness and weird darkenings and lightenings.   Existing tools seem to be not quite adequte to accomplish this in skies, a common problem.  Such a tool might somehow "average" the tones' luminosity etc.

The Rec2020 colorspace (aka ITU-R BT.2020) is a critical colorspace for photography and not well supported in Lightroom Classic.   Rec2020 is the preferred colorspace for HDR (and is LRC's working primaries when in HDR mode). Rec2020 is also very ideal for print-related work as it includes many printable colors which fall outside Adobe RGB / P3, and yet avoids the excess of ProPhoto (which includes many imaginary values outside the range of human vision).   You cannot use it via any "edit in" options to open your image in Photoshop, which is especially important for working with RAW Smart Objects. The colorspace options in LRC preferences / external editing are limited to ProPhoto, Adobe RGB, P3, and sRGB.   This would ideally be done as a "JDI", as both LRC and PS support Rec2020, we simply don't have the option in the colorspace dropdown for external editing.   Note that there is limited support now in the "export" pathway (you can select file settings / color spa

As discussed in the other thread, LrC 14.4 will store AI denoise/super resolution data in .lrcat-data. This storage seems to be permanent: once AI denoise is enabled for a photo the blob will be stored indefinitely.   The proposal is to limit the amount of AI blobs stored in .lrcat-data by some threshold size and automatically clean up old blobs. If a user opens a photo with a deleted blob again, it needs to be recomputed by running AI denoise again. So this basically trades storage space for additional processing.   I know that this means that opening a photo with a missing blob the first time will result in a significant delay. Users might still want this behavior. Standard size preview generation could use the non-AI-enhanced version of the photo since AI enhancements (except adaptive color profile) are probably not visible on small previews anyway.   This would make AI blobs work the same way was preview storage works.

Its well documented that you cannot crop to specific pixel dimensions and many people have asked this very question. Just google "crop specific dimensions in Lightroom" Heck even someone has built a plug-in to solve the issue. Do you want this feature? We do.

Lightroom Classic 12.4 / Camera Raw 15.4Just imported a dozen Fuji X-T5 raw files. White balance and tint value is slightly different for all of them as they were shot in 'Auto WB' on the camera.   Wanted to adjust the tint value on all images but retain their existing WB value.   Selected all, made sure Auto Sync was on in Develop mode, and moved the Tint value to 5.    Expected result: all selected images should now have a Tint value of 5, while retaining their original WB value.   Actual result: the WB and the Tint value for the main image was applied to all selected images, even though I had not adjusted WB at all.Did an Undo, went through all images to confirm they all had different WB and tint values. Selected a different image. Did a Select All, Auto Sync on. This time I set the WB value for my main image.   Expected result: all selected images should now have the same WB as the main image, but their Tint values should be unchanged.   Actual re

The History feature is superb in that it allows you to step back to an earlier stage in your workflow on an image and take a different direction from there.   However, it has always mistified me, right from when I started using Lightroon on a PC about 15 years ago, why 'Publish' and 'Export' events are recorded. Yes, they record that you did something with the image ... but not that you did something that changed the image. And if you step back to before those events, you don't suddenly un-publish or un-export the image!   They are fundmentally different, and for me personally, they are about as useful as a chocolate teaptot! I find them useless, inappropriate, dead wood bloat.   I have processes that I run repeatedly for many Collections, which Export or Publish e.g. high-res JPGs of all of the images they contain. So thousands of my images have dozens of useless History entries.   So, please give us two small features: 1) A Preferences tick box that sele

With the addition of Content Credentials, Adobe has taken a first step toward allowing creators to make use of Content Authenticity Initiative features. I'd like to suggest a second.   While researching Content Credentials, I found that the CAI defines a fairly extensive set of assertions that can be added to images (see https://opensource.contentauthenticity.org/docs/manifest/assertions-actions/). One potentially interesting set are the "Do Not Train" assertions, such as c2pa.ai_training, c2pa.ai_generative_training and so on, which allow creators to specify whether they want their images to be used for various kinds of AI training and data mining or not.   Because of growing concerns about images being used to train generative AI, a lot of creators would probably welcome the ability to express their preferences and 'warn off' AI scrapers from misusing their work. Much as Lightroom allows us to attach copyright information to images (via IPTC), it would b

A Collections Library Filter. While maybe not the best place, but for idea purposes, i've long wanted the ability to have Collections in the Library Filter drop down. I've worked around this at times using smart collections, but not ideal.    

Hi!  I shoot tethered to Lightroom with my camera facing down (parallel to a table surface shooting food) and the images import with random rotations since the camera is not sure what to do.  To combat this, I have tried turning the auto-rotate on, off, just to camera, to camera and computer - basically every option I know of.  Additionally, I have tried manually rotating images hoping that the "apply to next shot" feature will override the rotation but that does not work either.  PLEASE provide a solution for this, where I can apply the same rotation to all images AS they come in through the camera vs. needing to apply it per-image.  When I have clients looking at my monitor and I have to manually rotate each image it looks really bad and is very time consuming over the course of a full day shoot. This would be so appreciated -  Thank you!! 

Some plugins will add custom fields in the metadata window. For example, Jeffreys plugins add fields that show the URL after publishing to places like Flickr or Tumblr. Would like the ability to add these fields to the Default metadata Panel via the Customize Metadata Panel window.     

The ability to add info overlays to the bottom thumbnail strip, similair to when in grid mode.
