Exposure Bias is not currently a searchable field, pleaseinclude it in the Metadata Library Filters. Multiple reasons why this is useful, from photographers who use bracketing, and want to sort through images at 0ev, using fixed exposure compensation on shoots and wanting to select and increase exposure in sets. The list goes on. As this is a Metadata field, and can be displayed in cells, please allow filtering by it too. Thank you.
On Lightroom classic on the floor panel, I cannot see the folders are the pictures of a pacific file but if I looked in my collection, they are sync to my Lightroom classic folder panel. I can see the photos and the folder how to write from back on my folder panel
Love the new feature for AI distractions of people and reflections.. Lets expand on that!! As a wedding photographer I am constantly removing power lines, stop signs, or just signs in general, exit lights.. It would HUGE if these were added as additional AI options for distraction removal. Feels like it would be a fairly easy addition. Posted a screenshot as an example.. AI generative fill defintely takes care of it no problem but would save time if we didn't need to manually select it.
In general, my problem is that i cant edit raw files in lightroom classic with process version 5. I can choose process version 5, but when i do some changes, version turns automaticly intro 6. I dont know what to do in application to have process version solid 5, without changes.Help me!!!

Issue: The Point Color functionality has stopped working post upgrade.Steps to reproduce: Mask an area of the image, then go to Point Color under the mask adjustment section, click the dropper icon and then move the cursor to the image. At that point the dropper icon vanishes (as soon as the cursor moves over the image). [I can’t select any colour/area within the mask.I can see previous colours I have selected prior to the upgrade within the Point Color settings and can manipulate them.Expected result: when clicking the dropper icon, I should be able to move to my mask and select a colour to then manipulate. The dropper icon should still visible when moving my cursor across the image.

Upon rotating an image 90º (clockwise), it becomes completely distorted, albeit only in Develop mode, in Library (and, most fortunately, when exporting) it’s OK.distorted in develop module (OK in filmstrip and library mode)Rotating back (counterclockwise) doesn’t restore normal proportions. It’s as if the “canvas”would rotate, but the image would not, and instead be stretched to fill the new canvas.Weird…. LRC 15.2.1 Release, up to date on 04/15/2026
Creating a develop preset with Remove selected but no Remove commands applied to the photo appears to succeed. A .xmp file is created, but the preset doesn’t appear in the Presets panel. To reproduce on LR 15.2 / Mac OS 26.2: 1. Open a photo in Develop and click Reset. 2. Create a preset named “_remove”, with just Remove, Reflections, People, and Dust checked. Observe that no error is displayed but “_remove” doesn’t appear in the Presets panel, though the file “_remove.xmp” appears in the Settings folder.

I just updated to Lightroom Classic 14.4 and although I do like the fact that I can Denoise without creating a DNG file, I still would like the option to select a series of images and menu: Photo>Enhance... to let it create dngs in the background which enables me to work on other images while it;s doing those. Currently, in 14.4 it takes a long time, especially if I have multiple images that I am denoising and I cannot do anything elese while it's doing that process. Is there still a way possible to do it the old previous way of creating a DNG Denoised file? Seems like an oversight when implementing this new way and slows down my whole workflow.
In LR 15.2, Help > Map Module Shortcuts shows the wrong keys for Show Filter Bar in these four languages: Language Shown Should Be DE \ < ES \ , FR \ $ SV \ ,
The entries for the keyboard shortcuts for assigning the Purple color label were omitted from the TranslatedStrings.txt files in LR 15.2:"$$$/AgLibrary/Menu/Photo/Label/Toggle5AndNextShortcut=""$$$/AgLibrary/Menu/Photo/Label/Toggle5Shortcut="These entries are defined for English (in LibraryLabels.lua). The entries appeared in TranslatedStrings in previous versions of LR:
I unselected the “Enable hover preview of presets, history and snaphots in Loupe” option in the preferences but even though it is turned off, it is still previewing in case of hovering the mouse over any history state of snapshot. It doesn’t do the preview on the presets, but it is still previews the history and snapshots which it is not supposed to do, because the option is purposely turned off.Lightroo Classic 15.2
In Lightroom Classic grid mode, the top toolbar now covers part of the grid. In full-screen mode I can't even see the file names. Is this something I can fix here?
I’m laboriously working on ridding my computer of duplicate images. I wonder if anyone has developed a technique les tedious than what I’m doing. I know LR doesn’t find duplicates so this is what I’m doing now:Run a duplicate file finder program that lists the duplicatesCheck LR (version 4.4) to see if they are in it.If both are, I mark one as rejected and proceed to the next in the listIf only one is, I use Windows Explorer to confirm the non LR image is indeed on my computer and delete it in Explorer, sometimes moving the LR image to the folder of my choiceIf neither is there, I import one to LR, and delete the other in Explorer.Filter LR images for the rejected attribute and delete all these from the disk Am I making this harder than it should be? How are you all dealing with eliminating duplicates? Thanks, hal
Since LrC 15 I get this popup: Smart previews have been the single thing that kept Lightroom Classic moving decently for me, even when my Macbook was brand new, even when I made super powerful workstations before that. Lightroom Classic has always been slow loading original images, no matter what I did, except for enabling the use of smart previews.Now the app says I should disable the only thing making usable for someone editing thousands of pics at a time. Now I have to go through several steps when I need one of the new models (because working with smart previews does indeed lower the output quality), then go through several steps again to enable the use of smart previews, when the only logical thing to do was probably a single line of code saying “if CurrentPic.source == SmartPreview {CurrentPic.source == Original} when using one of the features needing originals.Please fix this simple yet horrendous user experience bug asap.
I have been using LR for many years and have had no problem with dragging images in the film strip to reorder them. Recently, this has become very erratic. Sometimes it works okay other times, even though the cursor shows I have picked up the image, when I drop it it either just returns to the original place, drops somewhere random or even sometimes another image will randomly change place.I have tried shutting down and restarting both my laptop and LR but the problem persists. I have the order set to, ‘custom’. I have also collapsed and reopened the filmstrip. The problem also occurs in the library module using grid view.What once took my 5 minutes is now taking hours, it’s very frustrating. Any help would be great.Dave
In moving to a new MacBook Air I lost a year’s worth of photos even though backed up with both Backblaze and an external drive. That is history. How can I create photos from my smart previews on this new computer. It tells me the MacBook Air won’t do it. All I can come up with is taking a screenshot.. Thanks for any help.
Currently in the SDK we have LrApplicationView.getSecondaryViewName()We need to have the same BUT for the “main screen” view and thus be able to detect which view we are in the Library module.So Please implement an API to get the current “main view”Hypothetical API LrApplicationView.getMainViewName()Returns the name of the view currently showing on the main screenReturn valueviewName (string) The name of the main view being shown, one of: "loupe", "live_loupe", "locked_loupe", "grid", "compare", "survey", "slideshow", or nil.
Hello,I am currently using the Content Credentials feature when exporting photos from Lightroom, and I am encountering a couple of issues.1. Creator name not consistently visibleWhen exporting a photo, I configure the Content Credentials so that my name is included. However:On https://verify.contentauthenticity.org/, my name does not appear On LinkedIn, the credentials also do not display my name But on https://contentauthenticity.adobe.com/inspect, my name does appear correctlyThis raises the question: why is the “producer”/creator information visible in Adobe’s Inspect tool but not on other verification platforms?2. Original image still visible despite settingsWhen exporting, I explicitly untick the option that allows the original image to be shown.However, both:https://verify.contentauthenticity.org/ https://contentauthenticity.adobe.com/inspectstill display the original image.This suggests that the export settings may not be applied correctly, or that there is an issue with how the
I had to reinstall lightroom classic on my old Mac. Adobe support used remote Desktop to install it for me. Version 13.0. Unfortunately all of my catalogs are 13.3 and not compatible with this older version.Any idea how to update this version? The latest versions from creative cloud are not compatible with this machine.Thanks
Every time i try and edit photos in develop mode it keeps saying some masking models are being downloaded. ive reinstalled the app on my laptop and it still says the same thing. i cant use any filters from classic.
Description of IssueWhen I send a photo from Lightroom Classic to Topaz Photo and return it to Lightroom, Lightroom Classic sometimes shows this warning:“Topaz Photo either failed to start or did not finish successfully. Exit code: 3221225477”However, the image is usually processed correctly and returned to Lightroom with the edits applied.The issue appears to be intermittent. It happens when Topaz Photo is using the GPU. If I set Topaz Photo’s AI Processor to CPU, the warning does not appear.I also observed that system RAM and GPU memory were well below full usage at the time of the warning, so this does not appear to be a simple out-of-memory condition.Lightroom Classic Version Number (Help > System Info…)Lightroom Classic 15.2.1 ReleaseCamera Raw 18.2.2OS Version NumberWindows 10 Pro 22H2OS Build 19045Camera Model (sometimes necessary)Not camera-specific.Tested with an existing image in Lightroom Classic during external editing to Topaz Photo.Step-by-step Reproduction Instruction
