My graduated & radiated filters aren’t functioning properly. They don’t seem to be applying the changes specified other than turning the highlighted area black. All changes seem hash, i’ve lost the ability to make fine adjustments.

    Turn view of. overlay on, make sure you actually have something defined

    Make sue towards. bottom, sliders for density and/or amount (not on PC, words may be wrong) are not towards far left

    Thanks for your help guys but nothing seems to work. It was fine last week but not this week. Have no idea why.

    I have an old Mac Book Pro running El Capitan. My version of Lightroom is 7.5. Everything has been fine until now.

    Hi there,

    That should not be happening, let us help make it right.

    As some of the filters aren't working properly in Lightroom, could you please share Lightroom's Help > System Info dialog text here? As it would be helpful for us to troubleshoot further.

    Also, please share a screenshot of the full view of Lightroom.

    Could you please try the suggestions above and see if how it goes?


    Is radial filters turned off? there is a toggle switch at the bottom check it is in the up position.

    Regards,
    Sahil

    Have you tried resetting the Module?

    With Alt / Option button down as you click Reset at the bottom of the Module other options appear.

    That might be useful to play with?

    You haven't posted your Lightroom version or system specs so we be guessing as to all that . . .

    Dependant on LR Version and you system you might want to also uncheck Use Graphics Processor in the performance tab of LR prefs.

    In the first step please try switch off the GPU support from the Lightroom preferences and check if that helps to fix the issue

    Go to Lightroom > Preferences > Performance tab > Uncheck "Use Graphics Processor" > Restart Lightroom.

    If this doesn't help please reset the preferences and try again.
