Strange Behavior of the Remove Tool in Lightroom Classic 14.0.1 – Has Anyone Experienced This Issue?

Hi,

I've encountered strange behavior in Lightroom Classic. When I make adjustments to one part of the sky using the Remove tool, another part of the sky—where I haven’t made any changes—becomes brighter on its own! This is very odd behavior from the software and often makes it difficult for me to work with the Remove tool.

Check out the video I recorded demonstrating this strange behavior of the Remove tool in Lightroom Classic 14.0.1.

I’m curious if any of you have experienced the same issue?

Have a great day,

I notice the down arrow in the thumbnail indicating a metadata conflict (changed in LrC not in image??) I have no idea why that world effect an develop edit. I suspect that the cause of the conflict might, maybe, perhaps, relate????

What you probably see here is that you applied Dehaze. Dehaze is a complicated calculation, based on the entire image. So if you remove a bright part of the image, it is possible that this affects the Dehaze result on the rest of the image.

Hi Johan,

Thank you for your response! I understand how adjustments like Dehaze or Clarity could influence other parts of the image due to their nature, but in this case, neither Dehaze nor Clarity were used. This odd behavior occurs even on a clean RAW file with no added adjustments right after opening it in Lightroom. It seems that the Remove tool itself might be causing unintended changes to the brightness in untouched areas of the sky.

If anyone else has encountered this issue or has insights on why this might be happening, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Best regards,
Paweł Słowik

I don't think that the remove tool itself can possibly change parts of the image that it didn't select. This must be some effect that is based on the entire image, and the fact that this image has changed. Maybe the profile has something to do with it. You could try to select another profile and see if that changes this behavior. Also double check your camera defaults, because some edits (like dehaze) could be part of a custom profile that is applied in a camera defaults preset.
