Missing filter bar

[Chris__Morgan]

     Hi all,

Cant seem to find this 'bar' on lightroom (below) I am sure it is a simple fix but cannot seem to find out why it has disappeared or how to get it back?

Thanks in advance.

Chris

Do the menu command View > Show Filter bar (and the menu you will of course show you keyboard shortcuts).

I have no 'View > Show Filter Bar' menu item...what's going on?

Make sure you are in Library -- the Filter bar isn't available in Develop or the other modules.  If you are in Library, please post a full-resolution screenshot of your entire LR window.

here's a screen shot in loop mode

Adobe Lightroom CC 1.3

cant get a filter bar using '\' or toolbar using 'T'

'\' = show original

'/' = toggles filmstrip

there is a 'sort by' pulldown menu at the bottom, guessing the filter bar

was changed to this.

You are using the brand new version of Lightroom called Lightroom CC.

The Filter Bar is found in Lightroom Classic CC which is completely different software with far more features than the brand new Cloud-based Lightroom CC.

This is the Classic CC forum.

Best to post your questions in the Lightroom CC forum.

Lightroom CC — The cloud-based photo service

thanks

too bad it's not easily to know beforehand that it's terribly disabled software

Just FYI; the screen-shot in the OP is not of the Filter Bar. It is the Tool Bar, which is toggled with the "T" key or View > Show Tool Bar.

I must be using a stripped down version, Adobe Lightroom CC

There is no 'View > Show Tool Bar'

There are now two variants of Lightroom, Lightroom CC (cloud-focused) and Lightroom Classic CC (desktop-focused).   See here for a full description of the differences: https://www.lightroomqueen.com/the-future-of-lightroom/ .  You can tell which version you have by doing Help > System Info and looking at the first line.

This forum is for Lightroom Classic CC (and earlier desktop versions). If you have Lightroom CC, you should post your questions in that forum: Lightroom CC — The cloud-based photo service

Thanks to Adobe for the perspicuous naming.
