Probs with ACR

  • August 12, 2018

I am running Mac High Sierra 10.13.1 and ACR version 10.4.0.976.  I am having numerous issues but the most important right now is when I go to ACR filter plugin I do not have a crop tool or leveling tool?  I do not want to uninstall PS as I have numerous add-ons that I don't want to reinstall.  Does anyone have any suggestions on this matter?  I have enclosed a screenshot of ACR.

Thank you,

J Buckley

That is normal. ACR as filter does not have the crop tool, because a filter is applied to a single layer and cropping is always done on the entire image. Only ACR as RAW-opener has a crop tool.

Johan:  Please excuse my ignorance.  One of the other problems I spoke about was my inability to open my raw files in ACR.  I've checked Preferences to no avail.  What am I missing?

Thank you,

I don’t see any of that in your original post. Which raw files (which camera) are you talking about? If it is a very new camera, then ACR may not support its raw files yet.
