UPDATE:

We're interested in what changes you would like see in our products. Do you have an idea for a feature that would help your workflow? Is there a small change that could be made to make your life a little easier? Let us know!  Share an Idea, Ask a Question or Report a Problem and get feedback from the Product Development Team and other passionate users on the Photoshop Family product Feedback Site on Photoshop.com.

In future it would helpful if you could use this thread as a means to add

"Features" that you would like to see in future releases of Adobe Camera Raw.

Please do NOT create additional new Topics and try not to duplicate requests by other users. Also, be thorough in your description of the feature and why you think Adobe should consider it.

Oh, and if you find it necessary to comment on someone's feature request/suggestion, try not to get into a shouting match. The penalty for doing so is...

b If you're asking that a particular camera is supported in a future release or just taking the opportunity to carp that yours isn't then please do so in another thread!

    Well, there isn't...so, you can either learn how to use the new Auto, or make yourself miserable complaining that it's changed.

    The new Auto Tone really _IS_ much improved over the old multiple autos. . .which most people checked off, most of the time, leaving only one or two parameters checked. Auto, in Camera Raw 4 (which has more controls than 3.7) actually gets most of the settings correct usually only requiring the adjustment of one or two of the parameters...so, to me, it's six of one, 1/2 dozen of the other...you are free to disagree...but the guys doing Camera Raw pretty much stated that the change was a one way street and there's no going back. So, pretty much, "ain't gonna happen" is accurate...sorry.

    I agree the elimination of the Auto buttons on the sliders is a MAJOR step backwards in useability. There's got to be a better answer than "it ain't gonna happen".

    Ain't gonna happen because the Auto adjustments changed for Lightroom compatibility.

    Please go back to being able to set auto adjustments on the individual sliders rather than the whole group. It seems this was a big step backwards...

    Currently: Click on neutral to "snap to" white balance
    Please Add: Select color from skin-tone pallette, then click to "snap to" selected skin tone, w/ or w/o exposure/brightness compensation

    And: User selects key colors (bride's dress, wall color, skin tone) and then use eye-dropper to snap image so sampled portion matches selected color

    single-key toggle switch for shadow & highlight preview on/off, not just <alt> key + <exposure>

    Button Mode (relative and/or absolute) to increase/decrease setting:
    [temp=3000][temp=4000][temp=5000]
    or
    [exposure: increase .25][Exposure: decrease .25]
    (I know this can be done with arrow key if setting is highlighted, but this would allow quick exposure change with just a mouse click)

    Allow multiple xmp for one image that are recognized as co-equal, maybe with comment, e.g., xmp 1="balanced for window light" xmp 2 = "b/w with dark shadows"

    Leads to two features a) In batch process mode leads to multiples files if there are multiple xmp files b) With button-mode "select xmp", use could move through each correction to find favorite (or with arrow keys)
