I have to scroll a lot of presets in lightroon and must constantly scrolling. A search or sorting function here would be very helpful.

thanks 🙂

    I'm looking for the ability to sort or order within a cluster

      I would like to see the addition of a capability for dynamically rearranging and organizing presets and preset groups. Drag-and-drop functionality inside ACR, Lightroom Classic and Lightroom would be a fantastic capability.

      As an easier to introduce functionality (I assume) would simply be to add a SortGroup variable to the preset file very similar to the SortName variable. It would allow us the opportunity to create meaningful organizational structures of preset groups without having to resort to alphanumerical prefixes.

       

      Thanks,

        There's already an internal 'Cluster' for sorting sections if you weren't aware.

          Ive accumulated loads of presets and now I can't find the one I want quickly. Maybe there could be 

          1. a search feature

          2. a favourites section

          3. A frequently used section

           

          thanks

          "a favourites section"

           

          That feature exists. In the Presets panel, right-click a preset and do Add To Favorites, and it will show up in the Favorites Group:

           

          Also, you can control which groups (what Adobe calls folder of presets) appear in the panel -- click the + menu in the upper-right corner and do Manage Presets.

          Incluir uma busca, uma pesquisa para localizar as predefiniçoes que salvamos.

          It would be REALLY handy to be able to have a search field at the top of the develop presets in the Develop module that will filter the (large!) list of develop presets..  I have hundreds of filters but might want to search for ones that emulate Kodak Portra 400.

          It would save lots of time if I could just start typing 'portra' in the presets window and it would just list presets with portra in their name...

          When using lots of presets / brushes it's hard to find the desired one. Only putting them under "favorites" isn't enough in my opinion. It would be an improvement if one could search (search field in the titlebar of the presets panel)

          It's difficult to go through thousands of presets, to find the one you need. It will be easy and time saviour, if we can search the, presets by name or group.

          Please put a search box beside "user presets" so it's easy for us to locate the presets we made please. It would be very helpful and saves a lot of our time. Thank you and more power!

          Needs the ability to manage the sorting of presets the same way the Finder does: sort by name and location in folders as in the computer's O.S.  Users should be able to arrange presets the way they want, not some mysterious arbitrary way.  Make the process useful for the user/customer.  The current arrangement is ridiculous.  Put the presets in the file folders and sort you want in the Finder, have LR put the presets in the Develop Module in that same order.
