Shy switch (similar to After Effects) for video layers in timelineOpen for Voting

I'm currently working on finishing a feature with a lot of optics, repos, and in-NLE comps as part of our VFX workflow. The film features hundreds of VFX shots that all need to be tracked through the edit, into color, and then back into the edit where some additional conform work is being done. Once we receive a color master that is one single flat file and then start to receive layered comp elements from color, we are working in the same edit timeline. It would be great to be able to SHY or HIDE video layers with a toggle, exactly the same as After Effects does (or... dare I say it... Avid does this). Then you could create timeline view presets just like you currently can with layer heights that includes shy or hidden layers as part of the view. So I could have a shortcut key to switch on/off hidden layers while working on the conform part of the VFX workflow. Simplified example here, you can see that I'm doing comp work ABOVE the color master: Basically I want this and I don't want to have to edit in Avid to be able to do it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXlM8sI18LI&lc=UgzzMM0IM6I1ZIHlp514AaABAg.AIXTVK5oNvTAIX_XXW5uXK&ab_channel=ImagineThatFilms

Set layers to fill the complete Comp duration always.Open for Voting

In many occasions Adjustment Layers, Backgrounds, masks, letterboxes ‘live’ throughout the whole Comp. It would be nice to have a layer switch that makes layers persistent, even when the Comp duration changes.

Use a shortcut to Duplicate a layer UNDER the original in stead of aboveOpen for Voting

Create a Shape Layer. Name it “1”.Duplicate it, using cmd-D (ctrl-D on Windows). See how the layer name of the duplicate is “2”, and above “1”. In many cases, making numbered layers, requires the duplicates appear UNDER the original. This has to done manually for each duplicate.My request: let alt-cmd-D or shift-cmd-D do that in one go: create Duplicate under the original.

P: Allow shared album owners to set the default sort order for viewersOpen for Voting

I use Lightroom Cloud to maintain large shared albums that are continuously updated with new photos.Today, shared albums always open with the default sort order of oldest to newest, and the album owner has no way to change this for viewers.This becomes a problem with large albums because viewers are often interested in seeing the newest photos that have been added since their last visit. Instead, they have to browse through thousands of older images before reaching the latest additions.My goal is to maintain a single, continuously growing shared album. I am not interested in splitting the content across multiple smaller albums as a workaround, since that makes browsing and managing the collection more complicated over time.I would like Lightroom to provide a way for viewers to see the newest photos first when opening a shared album. One solution would be to allow the album owner to define the default sort order (for example, Newest to Oldest). Another would be to allow viewers to choose and persist their own preferred sort order for shared albums.Either approach would significantly improve the browsing experience for large, continuously growing shared albums while preserving the flexibility to view the album in a different order if desired.

paste images from clipboardOpen for Voting

Allow pasting reference images from the clipboard. We’re not in the 2000s, we use the clipboard. Having to download an image and then upload it via “Browse image” is annoying.It’s one of the reasons I choose Freepik and Higgsfield over Firefly. The UX is bad.

Enable Strobe Light to strobe Adjustment LayersOpen for Voting

To make a flickering effect, the Strobe Light effect comes in handy. But when applied to an Adjustment Layer, and set to ‘Makes Layer Transparent’, it affects the Opacity of the underlying layers as well, kind of natural Adjustment Layer behavior. But when we want to only strobe the Adjustment Layers’ effects, it is not possible with the Strobe Effect. Please make that possible via a switch.

P: Client to filter galleries by likes/commentsOpen for Voting

I'm super happy about recent upgrades on filters of likes and comments in the online galleries however there is still a missing piece to the full workflow puzzle. When I send an album of let's say 100 photos to my client, they go in, put likes to 15 photos, but the can't filter just those 15 shots. Nowadays I have to create them another gallery with their liked shots. Feature request: It would be amazing if the share published galleries have filters for clients to filter out liked photos from the album.

Add a "Restore Clip Selection" functionOpen for Voting

Current Problem:When individually Shift-click selecting multiple Clips, it is very easy to lose that selection Needed Change:Add a “Restore Clip Selection” function that will recall the last batch of Clip selections that were made. Why It’s Important:If, while selecting Clip Boundaries, a Clip is accidentally selected, those Clip Boundary selections can be recalled with “Restore Trim Selection.” There is currently no “Restore Trim Selection” function for Clips, so if a user clicks a Clip Boundary or clicks off into an empty portion of the timeline, those Clip selections are lost. Sometimes, individually Shift-clicking and selecting Clips takes a lot of time. Playback of the Timeline, and other actions, can be made in-between selections. Losing a selection of Clips happens often to all users and wastes a lot of time, especially when working quickly. Making selections is an essential part of the work that we do. Losing a selection is like deleting work that is completed and has to be redone. We need a way to recall Clip selections to improve the speed at which editors can work. This job is very demanding and attention-heavy. Making a very simple and easily repeatable mistake decreases moral and enthusiasm for the work and the NLE platform of Premiere. This change is a highly desired, effortless programming alteration which will ensure the reduction of countless hours of wasted time while working in Premiere.

Change Selection Tool to prevent Clip Boundary from being selected while selecting multiple ClipsOpen for Voting

Current Problem:When (Shift) selecting multiple Clips or Clip Boundaries, the Selection Tool allows the other to be selected, which deselects all individually selected Clips or Clip Boundaries. Needed Change:While the Shift key is being held in order to select multiple Clips (or Clip Boundaries), prevent the Selection tool from being able to select Clip Boundaries (or Clips) until the Shift key is released. If the Shift key is held down again, in order to add more Clips (or Clip Boundaries) to the selection, only allow the current item being selected to be added to the current selection, until the Shift key is released again. Why It’s Important:If, while selecting Clip Boundaries, a Clip is accidentally selected, those Clip Boundary selections can be recalled with “Restore Trim Selection.” There is currently no “Restore Trim Selection” function for Clips, so if a user clicks a Clip Boundary or clicks off into an empty portion of the timeline, those Clip selections are lost. Sometimes, individually Shift-clicking and selecting Clips takes a lot of time. Playback of the Timeline, and other actions, can be made in-between selections.

The metadata overlay that’s available in both LrC and on the iPad is fabulous and it would be a great addition to the LR desktop.  Ideally it would show the exposure and lens data along with the flag status and stars rating.

still export resolutionOpen for Voting

When working with proxies, if you export video, it still exports at full resolution. Could we get the same for exporting stills? After working with proxies for a long time I usually don’t have a reason to turn it off since it exports high quality, but I got burned by exporting stills that ended up being proxy resolution. Or add it to the export still dialog window maybe?Thanks!Tom

Smooth Interpolation in "Compute Head Movement from Speech"Open for Voting

My request is to add a toggle to turn on smooth interpolation on head movements set by “Compute Head Movement from Speech.” The default seems to be “Pose-to-pose” movement. And adjusting the percentage of pose-to-pose in the “Face” puppet track behaviors doesn’t affect the movements added by “Compute Head Movement from Speech” even though other behaviors do. For example, I can adjust the eyebrow strength or head tilt strength on that movement.It would be nice to either have a toggle for that smooth movement or for the “pose-to-pose movement” setting to actually work.

I love using the alignemnt tools in other adobe programs. I think there should be more align to selecton, key object and canvas in premier. Only being able to align graphics from within properties>graphic is super annoying when i want to keep my layers on separate tracks but keep them aligned or align a photo to text for example.

Give momentary keypress functionality to hand and zoom toolsOpen for Voting

Hold H to momentarily activate the Hand tool, move the timeline around, let go of H to return to the previous tool.Same action for the Zoom tool.At the present time, you have to reselect the tool when you're done moving around.HUGE advantage for those of us who use Wacmon tablets and don't have a scroll wheel, as there is no other way to easily move in the timeline. The only way to achieve it with my Wacom, is to hold my top button and scroll the pen up & down - left & right doesn't function in Premiere. And it only registers for the portion of the screen that the timeline window takes up.Also the same way it functions in Photoshop, it's a very natural way to interface with the application.

P: Allow custom order of side panel sectionsOpen for Voting

This is not so much an enhancement to my workflow, but a general change to increase the usability and satisfaction with the UI. I am not interested in the least in Assisted Culling and Community items. Unfortunately, they are placed at the very top of the LH side panel, implying they are the most important key item to my usage. I have never used either and likely never will. Please allow me to move them to the bottom, or even better, hide them altogether. My biggest complaint with LR Cloud is the inability to customize the panels. Thanks!

P: Dedicated AI Portrait Retouching WorkspaceOpen for Voting

Adobe Lightroom remains the gold standard for RAW image processing, catalog management, and professional color grading. However, the modern photography industry is rapidly evolving toward AI-assisted, high-volume, and automation-first workflows — especially in portrait, wedding, beauty, fashion, and studio photography.While Lightroom has introduced selective AI tools over recent years, the platform still lacks a deeply integrated, end-to-end intelligent portrait workflow system that dramatically reduces manual editing time while maintaining professional quality.This feature request proposes a next-generation evolution of Lightroom into a fully AI-native photography production environment.The Current Workflow ProblemLightroom is exceptional at:RAW development Color grading Asset organization Metadata management Preset ecosystems Adobe Cloud synchronization Integration with PhotoshopHowever, modern portrait workflows still require excessive manual intervention for:Retouching Facial cleanup Hair cleanup Clothing refinement Batch consistency Image culling Expression selection Beauty enhancement Delivery optimizationProfessional photographers today increasingly need:Faster turnaround Same-day delivery Large-volume processing Automated consistency AI-assisted production pipelinesCurrent Lightroom workflows often involve:Lightroom → Photoshop → Third-party plugins → Manual retouching → ExportThis process is time-consuming, repetitive, and inefficient for modern production environments.Requested Features1. Dedicated AI Portrait Retouching WorkspaceLightroom needs a fully integrated AI Portrait Workspace specifically designed for portrait photographers.Current tools such as:Healing Brush Skin masking Subject selection…still require significant manual work.Requested AI-powered capabilities:Automatic blemish removal Acne cleanup Wrinkle softening Intelligent skin smoothing Under-eye correction Skin tone balancing Shine reduction Pore-preserving retouching Automated dodge & burn Facial texture preservationCritical requirement:All retouching should remain fully non-destructive and RAW-based.Photographers should no longer need to leave Lightroom for standard portrait retouching tasks.2. AI Facial Feature EnhancementLightroom currently lacks intelligent facial refinement tools commonly needed in portrait and beauty photography.Requested capabilities:Facial symmetry correction Jawline refinement Eye enhancement Smile enhancement Lip refinement Teeth whitening Nose balancing Facial proportion adjustments Natural beauty enhancementAdditionally, Lightroom should support adjustable retouch intensity modes:Natural Mode Editorial Mode Beauty Mode Commercial ModeThis allows photographers to maintain creative control while reducing repetitive manual work.3. Intelligent Hair Cleanup ToolsHair retouching remains one of the most time-consuming tasks in portrait editing.Requested AI features:Flyaway hair removal Stray hair cleanup Hair edge reconstruction Hair smoothing Hair shine balancing Wind distortion cleanup Background contamination cleanup around hair Hair volume enhancementThese features would be transformative for:Outdoor portraits Fashion shoots Weddings Beauty photography Studio headshots4. AI Clothing & Fabric CleanupLightroom currently offers limited support for garment refinement and fabric cleanup.Requested AI capabilities:Wrinkle reduction Clothing smoothing Fabric texture cleanup Dust/lint removal Shirt symmetry correction Jacket cleanup Dress refinement Fold reduction Clothing edge cleanupThis would significantly improve workflows for:Corporate photography Fashion photography School photography Studio production environments5. Adaptive AI Batch RetouchingTraditional presets apply identical adjustments to every image regardless of subject differences.Requested improvements:AI-aware adaptive presets Subject-aware retouching Face-aware batch processing Intelligent skin balancing per subject Adaptive beauty correction Automatic consistency matching across entire galleriesFor example:A preset applied to 500 portraits should intelligently adapt based on:Skin tone Lighting conditions Facial structure Exposure differences Camera characteristicsThis would dramatically improve efficiency for high-volume photographers.6. AI Smart Culling SystemModern photographers require intelligent image selection tools.Requested AI culling capabilities:Closed-eye detection Motion blur detection Duplicate frame analysis Sharpness ranking Expression ranking Smile detection Pose evaluation Emotion analysis Composition scoring Burst-sequence optimizationEspecially valuable for:Wedding photographers Event photographers School photography Sports portrait sessionsA feature such as:“Automatically select the best frame from each burst”would save professionals hours of manual sorting.7. AI Background Cleanup & Scene OptimizationLightroom’s masking tools are strong but still require substantial manual intervention.Requested AI features:Automatic distraction removal Studio backdrop cleanup Background object removal Crowd removal AI horizon correction Background extension Intelligent depth blur enhancement Subject isolation refinementThe goal is to create a more seamless production-level editing environment.8. AI Makeup Enhancement SystemBeauty and fashion photographers need advanced cosmetic refinement tools directly inside Lightroom.Requested capabilities:Lip enhancement Foundation balancing Eye makeup enhancement Eyelash refinement Eyebrow enhancement Shine reduction Makeup consistency correction Skin cosmetics balancingThis would reduce dependency on external retouching software for standard beauty workflows.9. AI Expression OptimizationModern AI technology now makes subtle expression enhancement possible.Requested capabilities:Smile enhancement Eye-opening correction Expression balancing Eye direction correction Facial emotion refinementThese tools would help photographers reduce costly reshoots while preserving realism.10. Real-Time Studio Workflow AutomationStudios increasingly require immediate processing pipelines.Requested Lightroom workflow upgrades:Real-time tethered AI preview enhancement Instant portrait cleanup previews Automated client preview generation Same-day delivery optimization AI-assisted export workflows Automated gallery preparationModern production environments increasingly demand:Shoot → Process → Deliver within hours.11. AI Consistency Matching Across Entire ShootsOne of the biggest challenges in portrait production is maintaining consistency across large galleries.Requested AI consistency engine:Match skin tones Match retouch intensity Match lighting mood Match color balance Match contrast profiles Match facial refinement levelsEspecially critical for:Weddings Corporate headshots School photography Fashion catalogs Team portraits12. Intelligent AI Retouch ProfilesLightroom presets are primarily technical adjustments.The future requires aesthetic-aware AI retouch profiles.Requested preset categories:Natural Portrait Cinematic Portrait Luxury Beauty Corporate Headshot Wedding Soft Skin Editorial Fashion Commercial Beauty Social Media PortraitThese profiles should intelligently adapt based on:Subject age Skin texture Lighting conditions Camera characteristics Portrait style13. Personalized AI Learning SystemLightroom should evolve into a system that learns photographer editing preferences over time.Requested capabilities:Learn retouching intensity preferences Learn color grading tendencies Learn masking habits Learn export behavior Learn subject treatment stylesThis would allow Lightroom to become increasingly personalized and efficient over time.14. Unified Editing Ecosystem Without Workflow FragmentationOne of the biggest productivity issues today is fragmented editing workflows.Modern photographers increasingly need:RAW editing AI retouching Culling Portrait optimization Batch processing Delivery preparation…inside a single environment.The future version of Lightroom should minimize dependency on:External retouching apps Plugin chains Complex Photoshop round-trippingThe goal is not to replace Photoshop entirely, but to eliminate unnecessary workflow fragmentation for standard portrait production tasks.Final RecommendationAdobe has already built the industry’s most trusted photography ecosystem.The next evolution should focus on transforming Lightroom into:An AI-native editing platform A portrait-aware workflow engine A high-volume production system An intelligent retouching environment A modern automated photography pipelineProfessional photographers today need:Speed Scalability Consistency Automation Intelligent assistanceLightroom already dominates:RAW editing Color management Cataloging Ecosystem integrationThe next opportunity is to dominate:AI-assisted production Intelligent retouching Workflow automation High-volume portrait editingThe future of photography editing is no longer just about editing images.It is about building intelligent creative workflows.

Playback Output To Monitor For Vertical And Other FormatsOpen for Voting

This has been a long time coming.When Premiere Pro outputs playback for ‘unsupported frame sizes’ to a broadcast monitor or client monitor via SDI/HDMI out of I/O hardware (Blackmagic in particular), it stretches the image to fit 16:9 streams. In this day and age, vertical and other frame sizes, 9:16 4:5 1:1, should all be supported. I wish Premiere Pro would, through a setting, automatically add pillarboxes to embed these frame sizes into the 16:9 stream out to the monitors. Yes, there’s a work around for this, but adds to a cumbersome workflow in editing. Davinci Resolve for a while now has a toggle to ‘Use Vertical Resolution’ when outputting to monitors, regardless of I/O hardware. What this means is, it adds pillarboxing and maps it into 16:9 so it’s displayed correctly on monitors. AJA’s hardware now has the ability to do the same mapping, through it’s I/O hardware. It’s hardware is typically much more expensive than Blackmagic hardware. Most independent artists use Blackmagic hardware. However, BMD is unlikely to add this feature to hardware, instead they did it in their software, which in a way forces artists to work in Davinici Resolve. Most times, we don’t have a choice and have to work in the software that client’s support, such as Premiere Pro or Avid. I would like to submit a feature request where Premiere Pro does this mapping into the 16:9 SDI/HDMI stream so that monitors display vertical formats correctly, like Davinci Resolve.
