Why I not have all option in Lightroom Classic

Question

Hello. I am an Lrc 2022 user and I have a problem. Everywhere in the videos I can see that everyone has all the options in the crop field, and I have only four of them. Why is that?

The reason you see fewer tools is that you are using a version (Lightroom Classic 11) that’s newer than many existing tutorials. You actually have more tools than older versions did, because the masking tools have been greatly expanded. You can reveal them by clicking that last Masking button. In there you can find the three original masking tools seen in older versions: (Adjustment) Brush, Linear Gradient, and Radial Gradient.

Yes, that’s right…the reason you see fewer tools is that your newer version actually has more tools. If they tried to put all the new tools in that area, they would not fit, so they combined all 8 masking tools into 1 masking button.

If you want to learn from tutorials that are current, only use tutorials for Lightroom Classic 11 or later.
