Feature Requests

I would like to be able to use my own domain with the Lightroom gallery. This functionality exists in Adobe Portfolio so I was wondering if a similar functionality is available or planned for the Lightroom gallery.  Portfilo has features I would like in Lightroom gallery like password protecting some albums and the custom domain. But the Lightroom gallery has much more to offer including full size images, the ability to download a whole album at once, it stays in sync without manual intervention, and the sharing functionality is better.  If password protected albums and custom domains could be ported over to the Lightroom gallery it would be an even better product.

Once in F full screen mode, the only way out is G to Grid mode. Would it be possible to add E keyboard shortcut to Edit mode? Thank you! Guido  

Add some good fonts in software 

When using the eye dropper tool to try selecting a colour value near the top or right edge of the screen, the tick button becomes unreachable. Would be super handy if the tick could rotate around the circle, or auto-change which 'corner' of the circle it sits on when approaching the edges of the screen (although as far as I can tell it only affects the upper and right edges - examples attached)

From a collection in Lightroom, clicking on "Make Public" gives a web address to the collection. Using this method, the Photo Info does not appear when viewing photos at the web address. If the desktop version of LR Mobile is used, it is possible to copy the URL paste it into a browser, and view the photo info. Since the Make Public URL is automatically shortened, it is more convenient to use. Is it possible to include the photo info with the Make Public generated URL? It would also be good to include the location information with the photo info.

I recently upgraded to the latest version of Lightroom CC (Ver. 5.1). I use the Brush tool a lot in my images and I don't know if this is a bug, but my Brush size and Eraser size settings are the same. Before, If I made my eraser brush small and my Brush size large, they would stay the same unless changed.   Now whenever I change the size of one of them, the other is affected. Plus, Auto Mask is the same too. I just want Auto Mask on the eraser brush and not the actual brush.

Are there plans for a verrsion of Lightoom for Mobile, to support Android TV (e.g. Nvidia Shield, or the new Goole TV, or older Chromecast), similar to the available version for Apple TV, to allow Viewing Images on TVs?  

Throwing it out there as someone who uses remote desktop to manage my library, the animations for fading in and out of menus etc. are slowing down the workflow. A switch to disable these effects would be great.   -Jake

I'm new to LR, so maybe I'm missing something. I use lightroom on my iPad, my iPhone, and my desktop (Windows). SnapSeed allows the user to view all edits and delete any one of those edits. LR doesn't appear to have that feature. It's inexcusable to me that LR can't offer a feature that SnapSeed (which is free!) offers.        

Currently Lightroom has native ARM64 program for Windows on ARM devices such as Surface pro X.  We need to install creative cloud desktop(ARM64) application first to intsall Lightroom. In fairness, it works well.  But Lightroom  x64 version is available directly from Microsoft store, so you don't have to install Creative cloud desktop application. Sadly Lightroom for ARM64 (Windows) cannot be installed directly from Microsoft store   Is there any reason why Lightroom for ARM64 windows not available directly from Microsoft store?

This has been asked many times on the old forums but here we go again: Can you please implement the same full screen previews on import like on Lightroom Classic. All we need is a double click on the file to go to max zoom to be able to cull the images before importing. Culling at the moment requires an import of ALL the files before being able to judge whether a file is worthy of importing at all, this also takes up bandwidth/storage on your end.

At this time of writing this, there appears to be no way to remove profiles created in Lightroom. You can add and modify what you see but cannot remove. Its a small issue but rather important one for those of us that create custom profiles.   Please consider adding a remove option in a future update 🙂

Ich würde mir sehr wünschen, die Metadaten-Felder in Lightroom durchsuchen und filtern zu können.

Basically, stacks are only useful in the unfiltered view for all photos or a specific album. With the point of stacks to to facilitate managing a group of images; Lr is missing multiple aspects to actually use stacks as useful management tools. Some features which should be implemented: 1. Search/filter for stacks. 2. Show stacks in filter results, where any image matches the filter criteria. 3. Ability to apply meta-data to all members of a stack. Basically anything in the information panel, keywords, ratings...   Tim

During Lightroom imports on iPad it would be helpful to be able to see lock icons or star icons. 

When you have a large album of images, the thumbnails with all icons (rating, flags...) around the border is insufficient to quickly scan or find which specific image I want. The idea would be to somehow have conditional color changes of the border based on filter criteria. e.g. make the border green for everything which has 2 stars....   Tim    

I often make use of photo merge; and my laptop is borderline in terms of power to accomplish this (Windows with Intel I7 8750H 2.2GHz with SSD). So, Lr basically becomes almost unresponsive once I have a large merge processing, or even two smaller ones. At this point the merge preview is not able to run. The idea, is to make any merge processing a much lower priority and cap the max number of background processes allowing me to continue going through images and building merge previews....   Tim

When using the desktop version of lightroom I'm constantly hovering over pixels to gauge the color values to maintain a consistent exposure It would be nice to have an eye dropper tool in the mobile version to inspect the color value of an image 

I wish, when adding keywords, I could select the keywords from already entered keywords as in the web version.

It would be sweet to see a feature that would allow you to create a checkpoint while in the middle of an edit so you can compare to that point in the editing process as you are going along. Very similar to how on Mac if you press the backslash button while editing, it shows the original photo without edits. I am thinking of having that same feature, but instead of it showing the original photo before edits when the backslash is pressed, you can set the photo with a certain set of edits to be what pops up when you press backslash. Or even have several buttons you can set to be different stages in your editing of the photo. I would find this useful because when I am really taking my time to edit a photo, i sometimes go down a rabbit hole of edits I thought I would like and then end up not liking, so it would be nice to compare to an earlier version in your editing/ be able to restore the previous version without pressing undo a hundred times.

can the lightroom cc text size be increased by 125%, because on my laptop the size is 14 inch & the resolution is 1920x1080. the text size is 100% too small and the text size is 150% too big

Would like to see the filmstrip slidebar, in Lightroom's PC version, to have added to it a left and right movement button for ease of searching for images.

Lightroom desparetly needs to allow drag and drop. All of the other programs allow it. It feels so old and clunky to have to open an import tab.  

New redesigned masking is awesome. But what i missing is subtracting/adding masks from/to each other. For example: I made mask 1 and made edits on it (added brushes on it etc.). Then i made mask 2 and made edits on it (added brushes on it etc.) and then i want simply substract whole “Mask 2” (with sublayers) from whole “Mask 1” (with sublayers). There in no such button for do that. I can subtract or add only predefined subtracting presets (like gradiendt, radial erc.). So pls add this substracting function for created masks. It would be nice. Thanks. 🙂

I am not able to use this lightroom despite many good features  just beacuse of missing custom sorting option and more filtering options.  I shoot wedding and events, in which end result of the images has to follow a certain sequence which doesn't neccesarily come with automatic options.  I can't even filter images of different SNs of a same camera model to edit capture time. I strongly recommend Adobe team to include these features. What are your thoughts friends?
