Where is the "Enter Custom..." option from the old Lightroom and how do we get it back (see attachments)? I like to make my photos 1080x1080 for Instagram and was able to do this in the LR Classic version.

Officially ended my adobe subscription. If Adobe ignores user requests after years of asking for the integration of a basic feature, I see no problem acquiring and using their old products without the processor-sucking Creative Cloud looming over us all. $0 more of my dollars will flow to Adobe until this one feature is fixed.

Enter your own values, or even define your own preset values for later use.

I am using Lightroom and I would appreciate a function for cropping multiple pictures in the exact ratio that i need, I think it would be called user defined aspect ratio. So just add one button that lets me enter my ratio and then let me adjust multiple pictures with that button.Thanks!

Little things matter and it is infuriating that this functionality does not exist years after the original poster started this thread. Implementing this is a couple hours of work for any software engineer worth their weight. There is clearly demand so the only excuse for this to not exist is total indifference for the paying users.

Oh and a custom aspect ratio would be heavily required in Lightroom for iPad too. The app is awesome but it is crap that I cannot set custom ratios by entering exact numbers.

It just doesn't seem like they are involved is the issue. I thought that this Lightroom would take over as well, but then it just seems like everything stopped. I've wondered if their Lightroom team has been more recently tasked with Photoshop for iPad. It still lacks features and I'm sure that is what they are really looking into as of right now. Lighroom works and they are okay with that until their other things that are not finished are done. Lightroom has been lacking this simple feature for over three years now, and that's the issue. It's something that should have been included from the launch. I love the cloud-based things Adobe has been working on recently. I was a sceptic at first, but this working from home that I've been doing has really put the cloud-based to good use with my team.

Adam adobe definitely is still involved. Only been using for a few years but from what I can gather Lightroom is their baby, I felt like they wanted to phase out lightroom classic. Though Classic has many more features which is confusing.

I'm not sure what you are saying. You might rewrite this. I can't tell if you think this is a good idea, if you are for Adobe, against Adobe, Adobe is paying me?

It is lack of such an essential feature, just because of users so soft like you guys, if I'm Adobe I don't care either, the most you can do is to put such a cautiously question here, so wait for 10 yrs bro, like this is some company paying you monthly
