Hello, please add a keyboard shortcut for the "Automatically straighten the photo" option in the "Crop overlay". Usually, I press "R" to select crop and wish to have another shortcut for "Auto straighten", as it usually works well in most cases.

 

Kind regards,

Kristijonas

Is there a keyboard short cut for auto straighten once in the crop tool?

Not to my knowledge. Only the (Auto) button to mouse click.

Here's a list of all Shortcuts, and auto straighten is not among them:

You could do Shift T to open the Transform panel, Ctrl Tab (both Win and Mac) to change the mode from Guided to Level (which uses the same method as Crop auto straighten), then R to go back to Crop.  Not as convenient as a single keystroke, of course.

 

Note that the shortcuts listed in Adobe help and the app are incomplete and contain many mistakes (in languages other than English).  See here for the most authoritative lists for all languages:

I shoot high-volume action photography and it is immensely time consuming and unergonomic to have to click the tiny "auto" button in crop mode for every single photo.

For what it's worth, I do have an autohotkey script that will allow me to straighten every single photo, but more often than not, I need 3 or 4 out of every 5 photos autostraightened (of thousands), so I need to go back and unstraighten a ton of them with this solution. A keyboard shortcut would save me a ton of time.

While you're waiting for Adobe to add a KBSC you might try a plugin by a John R Ellis called 'Any Shortcut'. More details at:

If the shortcut does not exist, I don't understand how this plugin would help me.

Just a thought, I would suggest you explore the options in "Transform" feature prior to using the Crop options.

You'd be surprised what's possible!

 

It costs you nothing to download and try it, and if you don't, then I suspect you'll have a long wait for Adobe to add the KBSC your asking for.

Unless I'm missing something obvious, there's no way to use a keyboard shortcut to auto straighten with transform either. I don't need a new ability to remap shortcuts; I'm already using an MMO mouse and a behringer midi controller with Lightroom. The shortcut needs to exist in the first place before I can map it to anything.

The best alternative I've found is a two-keystroke shortcut:

 

Shift T: Transform > Guided

Ctrl Tab: Cycle Upright Options to change to Level

 

Any Shortcut makes it easier to explore possibilities:

Crop/Crop Tool: Add a hotkey for "auto" straighten.

 

Why?

 

It would greatly speed workflow--

1. "R" for crop

2.  Adobe adds a hotkey for "auto" straighten (so I don't have to reach for the mouse and left mouse click on auto) I can press enter on the keyboard and right arrow to next image in the filmstrip.

 

3. I also do sports and events where your horizon line for a screen, a stage or players on the field are often slightly not straight..for about 95% of my workflow, the "auto" straighten acceptably straightens the image for client work.

"the transform-level is not good enough, I usually find I get different (and better) results with the Auto-straightening"

 

Independent of the need for a shortcut, it would be good if you post a couple example JPEGs here for which Crop > Auto produces different results than Transform > Level. In my limited testing, they produce the same results.

 

Transform > Level is the only way to batch auto-straighten photos, so understanding when it doesn't produce the same results as Crop > Auto would be very helpful (and help persuade Adobe to allow Crop > Auto to be synced).

What the AI, we dont have a fix for this.  Seems super easy.  Do we have to create an action or similar?  Anyone solve this one?

Thanks,

One member pointed out that when  you straighten on a field, it takes the lacrosse stick, the field lines, etc. rather than the horizon line.
