P: Flag & Color Label Shortcut Issues (Specific Languages AZERTY&QWERTZ)

[yrelav dralliv]

I encounter an issue with the latest update (V11) on shortcuts to assign a color label (6,7,8,9).
Those shortcuts won't anymore assign a color label, it will now only remove the color label. 
The shortcut "Assign a color label and go to next photo" (Shift+6 to 9) still work well as previously.
Please fix this adobe, my culling speed depend on it. 
Thanks in advance,

It is working correctly here.  Try resetting your preferences.

This procedure works for both Lightroom Classic and Lightroom Desktop.

If you are using Lightroom Desktop it can change the location of your local storage. Please review this setting after resetting preferences. 

Reset Procedure:

1. Close Lightroom.

2. Hold down [Alt/Opt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom.

3. Overwrite the Preferences when prompted by the dialog.

4. Close Lightroom.

5. Restart Lightroom.

Same problem for me although I did reset my preference and even uninstalled and reinstalled Lightroom classic. 

Since I upgraded to Mac OS Monterey the keyboard shortcuts 6 to 9 to set a color label are not working anymore. 

When I press any of this shortcuts 

if I want to set a color label I  get the message “remove color label”

if I want to remove a color label I  get the message “set color label”

In both case nothing happens an the color label are not set or unset. 

What’s strange is that I have no issue with the shortcuts 0 to 5 to set a rating. 

If I use the shift + number command (shift + 6 to set a red label) it work as expected that is the label is set and the focus change to the next image (which of cours I do not want, I want to stay on the same image). 

I discover this issue with the last 10 release of LR. The upgrade to LR 11 did not solve the problem. 

My configuration is am Mac mini M1 with macOS 12.0.1

Thanks for your assistance.

LrC11.0 works fine for me on macos 11.6.1

Same problem. Mac Mini, OS Monterey. LR 11.

[Ian Lyons]

I've check on 3 computers running macOS 12 Monterey, one of which is an M1 Mac mini, and colour labelling is working as expected.

I suggest checking the Shortcut options in macOS System Preferences 'Keyboard' applet

I'm using shortcut for color labeling and it has behaviour like I press it two times, but I pressed it only one time. And in same time it makes set color label and remove it :{ ...I find out, that this is problem when I set my keybord to czech - when I change it to english it works normaly. This is annoying. I work with czech QWERTY.

I applied also Auto advance - and it makes two labels.

Mac MOnterey, Lightroom Clasic 11.0

should this be moved to Bugs

[mhybl]

same problem - hopefully will be corrected in next version for november 21

[JosephKristel.photography]

I just upgrade to LR 11.0.1. It's supposed to fix some bugs but not this one unfortunately.

Hello I am very perplexed .. since I made the shift to Monterey 12.0.1 when in LR 11,0,1 I either enter a rejection or I give a number of stars with shift pressed, this jumps 2 images instead of going to the next image and in addition it puts the marker on the two images…

 It's not too much fun when I reject one photo the next one ie recited also  ... thanks for your advice

[kentdesign]

If I understand you correctly, you click a photo to reject it, and LR jumps to the next photo and rejects that one also?

[kentdesign]

Check this:  In the Library module go to the menu:  Photo > Auto Advance.

If auto-advance is showing a checkmark, try clicking once to switch it off.

[SvZvN]

yes, rejecting giving a score... all whatr I can do in the module it made on the 1 and 2 picture ... and I go automatticaly ont he 3 picture ... and it continues

[SvZvN]

already done... no changes sorry  It wouls be so easy !

Try resetting LR's preferences:
https://www.lightroomqueen.com/articles-page/how-do-i-reset-lightrooms-preferences/

LR sometimes soils its preferences file, and resetting it can fix all sorts of wonky behavior. That article explains how to restore the old preferences if resetting doesn't help.

[SvZvN]

I try it this evening ! Hope that it works 

[SvZvN]

IT DOESN'T WORK ....

[kentdesign]

Hello, Are you still having the same problem?

[SvZvN]

yes !!

[kentdesign]

Have you checked to see that you have the latestOS and LR updates?

[Stan L]

It is the same here for me!!! I tried to re-install but it is still the same even with the lastest update on 12/14/21? Very annoying on my workflow. Please Adobe can fix this ?

[Ian Lyons]

Adobe can only fix what they can reproduce, and there is little info in the posts to date that would help Adobe figure out where the problem might be. Therefore, the following info would help:

Have you tried resetting LrC preferences?

Have you checked that the 6-9 keys haven't been assigned to some other application/function in Keyboard settings?

Have you checked that the various options in the Keyboard Settings section of Accessibility have been inadvertently enabled (e.g. Enable Slow Keys in Hardware)?

Are you using a wired or Bluetooth keyboard?

What language is the keyboard configured for?

Are you using Mac or Windows?

What OS version are you using?

[SvZvN]

yes it's since I installed them that I hace the problem

Some shortcuts get overridden in certain circumstances. Worth checking if any special tools or modes are active.

For example - there may be other special circumstances besides - while a brushed adjustment is active the number keys act to vary the the current brush settings. So 1 sets 10% 'opacity', 6 sets 60%, 0 sets 100%. On exiting this local adjustment tool, the number keys return to acting as they did otherwise.
