Question

Lightroom Classic - Where is my library when I'm in Develop panel

Is it new that Lightroom Classic no longer shows my files on the left side? It appears that now I have to go back to the library to edit each folder, rather than click on my library on the left and just stay in the Develop panel. 

 

 

Thoughts?

Are you sure you are using Lightroom Classic and not Lightroom? You posted your question in the Lightroom forum but you are asking about Lightroom Classic. Which is it?

No version of Lightroom-classic (from v1) has ever shown the Folders in the left-side of the Develop module. Only the Collections panel will show in the Develop module.

Note there are workarounds - In the Library module you can select multiple folders [Ctrl+Left Click] in the Folder panel and all the images from the selected folders will appear on the lower filmstrip of the Develop module. Or, make a Collection of each Folder to be visible in the Develop module.
