P: Add Custom Brush Presets

I was (and still am, I guess) so, so excited about the launch of the new CC. However, I was extremely disappointed to find that there is no local adjustments folder to add custom brush presets. I chatted with an Adobe Support rep and they said that it "may be added in the future" and to post on here.

I cannot believe that I have to post on here asking for Adobe to add a main chunk of my workflow back into Lightroom. I can't be the only one whose LR workflow is affected by the lack of this capability.

This needs to be added! I am sticking to Lightroom Classic until Local Adjustment brushes + Presets gets added to Lightroom.

This is so ridiculous. Adobe please fix this ASAP. This is a total preset developer pain in the ass and a total buzzkill for CC. It's been 2 years! Let's get it together peeps.

Come on Adobe - you really need to start making improvements with your CC product otherwise people are going to start moving platforms. The lack of custom brushes for CC is baffling.

I miss the ability to use the pre saved mask options on Lr for iPad. For example, I always use the ‘iris enhance’ to pop the eyes in a portrait when editing on a computer, and now I have to set the values for the mask to each photo.

Any update here? Custom brush presets is so important and I don't understand why it's been deprioritized by Adobe.

Hi,

How can I create a brush preset in Lightroom CC? I can save presets for general modification settings, but have not found a way to do it for brushes. I would like to create a few brush presets for the brush settings that I often use.

Thanks,

Vlad

Hi Vlad,

You cannot create custom brush presets in Lightroom as of now, please checkout this discussion for more info: Lightroom CC: Custom Brush Presets | Photoshop Family Customer Community

Hi Akash,

It makes sense then, well that's a pity because brush presets would make my edits much faster...

Thank you for your quick answer!

Cheers,

Vlad

Hi guys same issue here. The product naming makes it very difficult to understand in detail the difference between versions, and online answers from 2017 get mixed with 2019 ́s ones.

For me the lack of brush presets kills the workflow completely, I just cancelled my subscription until this functionallity is added, that day Lightroom CC would be no doubt my game changer, as I was hoping to gat most of my work done from an iPad out of the office.

Let ́s hope this is added soon!
