Hi Guys. The plugin has been updated to support IDEA 12. There was a major bug holding me back from releasing it. I did create a Lightroom API plugin.  https://bitbucket.org/sylvanaar2/idlua-sdk-lightroom If anyone would like to help out I'd love it. Thanks! Jon ... View more

I think in LR 4.1 they added some verbiage saying that it was only used for video. There is an option in the preferences panel to enable or disable it. ... View more

Hi John, I work with RAW though one would think that would be more taxing, I don't have memory issues. Have you disabled OpenGL?. You should really try that if you haven't. I have no memory leaks in 4 or 4.1. I have run VMMap for hours to be certain. 4.0 was slow with multiple monitors but they seem to have fixed that in 4.1. Sorry if I couldn't help. ... View more

Windows 7 will on its own fill all available RAM with cached disk data. You can learn more here:  http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2010/02/behind-the-windows-7-memory-usage-scaremongering.ars and http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/windows-vista-superfetch-and-readyboostanalyzed,1532.html What you really want to watch for is PAGING and . That is all that really matters. You would need to enable the column in the task manager called "Page Faults", and see where those are occuring. Also, you should disable your virus scanner (like MS Security Essentials) for all your raw file types, the directories that contain your raw files, and the lightroom process itself. You can get actual data from Lightroom itself Help|System Info, which will give you more useful information: Lightroom version: 4.1 RC [820174] Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Version: 6.1 [7601] Application architecture: x64 System architecture: x64 Physical processor count: 8 Processor speed: 2.6 GHz Built-in memory: 6135.1 MB Real memory available to Lightroom: 6135.1 MB Real memory used by Lightroom: 270.3 MB (4.4%) Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 261.1 MB Memory cache size: 138.1 MB System DPI setting: 96 DPI Desktop composition enabled: Yes Displays: 1) 1920x1200, 2) 1920x1200 ...

Hi Rob, Well. I developed World of Warcraft addons for years using only EditPadPro. Now I use IntelliJ almost exclusively. I know that I like using it because I spend time on making it a useful tool for me to use. For other people, I always suggest they at least try it out. It has some nice features that you can use even if you don't want to use it as your primary editor. One example is the source code formatter. It doesn't have any options, but it does a nice job at reformatting Lua source code, and since the IntelliJ editor is aware of Lua syntax and semantics, it is quite safe to use. Even if you dont use it to write your code, you can use it to check your code for errors, style issues, and potential problems. If you have a large code base, its makes navigating around very easy. So, should you switch? I dunno. Should you try it, sure - you have nothing to lose. BTW, did you upgrade to editpadpro 7? Since I had moved on to my Lua plugin for IntelliJ, I didn't really put much effort into the Lua support for EPP7. I use it myself on occasion for a quick edit, nothing more though really. ...

Well, I am working making a simple LR plugin this weekend. I have already created completion files for the API's I could find in the docs. (It would really be nice if Adobe could just provide the API's and whatever they use to generate the docs - LuaDoc etc). That way I wouldn't have to scrape the HTML. I am following the tutorials here: http://www.assembla.com/spaces/lrdevplugin/wiki/Getting_Started As an aside, I notice that the other suggested tool was EditPadPro. Interestingly, I wrote the Lua support for that editor as well, so I was happy to see that it was getting some use. If anyone is interested in playing around with IntelliJ and Lightroom development over this weekend 3/24-5. I'll be on irc.freenode.net, nick: sylvanaar I'm a LR plugin newbie, but I am trying to learn both how to write a plugin, and what would I could add to my tool to make LR development easier. So if you have any thoughts, feel free to ping me. Thanks Again, Jon ... View more
