Is there a way to display the LR Classic homepage so that it shows only the titles of threads?  Or some other way to compress the page display vertically?  I'm looking at a lot of wasted white space.

[RIC.7]

Look L&R at the window and click on the arrows.

Hope that helps.🙏

[Candidly Shanti]

How do we find out what happened to our color pallets that were in a folder? Overnight they disappeared

[syed_mehadi]

This is resolved. Shanti was able to find her colors in "MY LIBRARIES" page when she opened the desired library and clicked on "Show more" button to load more themes.

[tbearwilson]

Hi, not resolved for me. None of my color themes are visible under My Libraries any longer. I can't find them.

[RIC.7]

Where should I/one start ?

[ana sofiaf4471999]

Im having difficulties choosing colors for my illustrations and im searching on your adobe color trends but there are so many colors that i don't know where to choose, im on the 364 page and its still going, do you know in what page does it end? 

Thank you

Hi-

Is there anything resembling a tutorial or mini-manual that describes how to use features of this app/tool, other than creating and selecting themes? I've seen some where the presenter talks about what they could accomplish, but never how. Think landscapes.

Thanks.

[syed_mehadi]

yes, here are some articles, which might be of help:

These pages should be helpful for you, please do go through and let us know if any detail isn't clear or missing in them:

please check and let us know if they explain it to you or if you still find some information which is missing.

[Richard2138]

Thanks for your reply.

I'm looking for something that tells me how to apply the app to one of my images to make the color changes I want. Everything I've looked at tells me how good the app is, and then, now go use it. There are some steps missing.

[syed_mehadi]

Sure, let me see if i can find someone who can help you here. can you please provide more details on what color changes you are thinking of doing in your artwork with an example?

[Richard2138]

If you go to this link https://www.photocascadia.com/creative-applications-of-color-theory-in-landscape-photography/ , and watch the video, you will see how the photographer put the Adobe Color CC color wheel to use with her images. That is, changing specific colors, finding color harmonies, and other things without going to themes. That's what I want to do. Unfortunately, the originator of the video doesn't explain how, in the workflow, to apply the application to a specific image and then save the settings so I can put them in the image. Will this help you? Thanks for staying involved.

Hola mi Nombre es Valeria, tengo un problema enserio con mi panel de color, al parecer desde ayer 13 de Mayo de 2021, he abiertto mi panel y solo puse explorar para guardar nuevos grupos de colores pero desde ese momento no me sale, solo me encuentro con el logo del panel, mas no me sale los colores como analogo, explorar y mis temas.

Sabes que podria hacer para que se me vuelva a aparecer por favor

Solamnte esto me sale de los temas, solo su logo mas no los colores ni los temas. ¿Que puede hacer?

[syed_mehadi]

please quit/close the product, then clean the cache (as per instructions below), and relaunch it.

That should solve the problem. if that doesn't work, please let us know, and we can have a short debugging session with you.

On Mac, cache location to clear is inside these folders:

• ~/Library/Caches/CSXS/cep_cache/
• ~/Library/Application\ Support/ and remove kulerdata.json

On windows, cache location to clear is insider these folders:

• open %temp% folder, which is C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\Temp\ clear contents inside cep_cache folder in it.
• Remove kulerdata.json from C:\Users\syed mohd mehdi\AppData\Roaming\

What about the palettes I liked? 
I can find my own palettes, but not the ones I previously could find inside the "my appreciation" panel

[papermoustache]

Found them. A little bit hidden, but still there (phew)

Hello

Why can't I change my color theme to CMYK when I edit it? The choice is no longer available.

[syed_mehadi]

CMYK values are not accurate in browsers, when converted between RGB/CMYK, so we have removed the option till the time browser have support for fully supporting it.

[Pat24987542hdwc]

Thanks for the speedy reply. I will just have to convert manually. I hope you can get the feature restored at some point.

Hi @Pat24987542hdwc , It’s good that Adobe removed the CMYK Color Mode from the theme creation page—as Sheena points out CMYK colors cannot currently be spec’d or accurately color managed with HTML/CSS coding, so the CMYK values that were listed were not accurate for any typical CMYK press conditions, and could be quite far off.

If you save your themes as Lab Color Mode, you can easily get color managed conversions with any of the Adobe print apps. In Photoshop if you apply a Lab color to a CMYK document it will automatically convert into the document’s assigned CMYK space.

In InDesign you can leave the colors as Lab and make color managed conversions to CMYK on an Export to PDF by setting a CMYK Destination in the Output tab. If you use the Lab swatches in a document, InDesign’s Separation Preview will show the managed CMYK values for the document’s assigned CMYK profile, or you can select all of the Lab swatches and convert them to the document CMYK profile via Swatch Options.

[Pat24987542hdwc]

Thanks for this explanation. 

[PostNet of Carson City]

i agree it is not worth having inaccurate colors and it makes total sense to me. However, Adobe must make CMYK its top priority. It is nothing to be taken lightly CMYK is huge for us which I realize Adobe knows but this situation is much more important than anything else.

[rob day]

Adobe can’t control web standards–currently there is no way to define an HTML/CSS color as CMYK or, more importantly profiled CMYK. It really is quite easy to get color managed CMYK values from theme Lab colors inside of the Adobe apps.
