Question

Lightroom interface is frustrating? So is this forum in some ways.

I typed a title and a message on this forum. Then I thought I better change the conversation type to match my message. Once I did that, the page deletes my title and everything I had typed. Are you kidding? Did you really have to do this?

 

To the software web developers of this website: you don't have to delete what someone has already typed just because he changes the conversation type. It's frustrating and it's pointless.

 

The Ligthroom interface is just as absurd. So many irrational means of doing things? So many shortcoming in the interface? So many simple obvious tasks for which one has to do Google search to find the way to do them. Obviously Adobe has noticed they have no competition hence lack of motivation to fix even the trivial flaws and shorcomings.

    I am sorry for my rant. I was frustrated about the situaiton. I will post my questions soon though I may use a different thread for my questions as this thread's starting message is distracting.

    For me LRC is fast and intuitive. I'll admit that it may be so because I have been using it for 15 years. Maybe in 15 years from now both LRC and the forum will be easier for you.

      And, you also have a question or are you just ranting?

      We would be happy to help how to use Lightroom Classic.
