P: Move [Done] Button from beneath Histogram back to Toolbar [T]

This is exactly how I approach hitting the first icon in the Tools menu. I noticed this the very first time I used the Develop module.

OT:  Speaking of file menus.  Another major weakness of Lightroom is the lack of keyboard mapping/remapping.  This really complicates programming USB controllers and other devices.  I mention this having setup a few midi-controllers for use with Lightroom.  This feature is way overdue.

The important thing is people are used to moving the mouse down and clicking on the Done button. If you do it long enough it becomes reflexive, and a seemingly arbitrary change is disruptive. Imagine for a moment if Adobe decided to rearrange the menu items at the top. Suppose File was the second from the right.  Would it disrupt your workflow? 

Why Change the DONE button with an Edit icon in a new location? what is the gain? this does not improve the UI experience. Yes there are 3 ways to do almost every action in LRC, but why remove one of the most commonly used buttons and have it replaces with an Edit icon. ?? Makes no sense to me.

I'm a software developer.   In my profession, we have the "Law of Universal Improvement."   It holds that no matter how many great features you add to a new version of your application, if you make anything worse than it was, that's all they're going to talk about.

There is no apparent reason to remove the Done button.  It doesn't matter if some people don't use it.  It's been there forever, and many users, including myself, are just used to clicking on it when we're done with an operation.   Taking it away didn't make room for some new feature.   The space is still there.   Please bring it back ASAP.

Maybe, IF it only appeared once you opened a tool.  That implementation would make sense.  It has no impact on the sliders below, so it should not indicate that it does.  They are always available.  If anything, once you access a tool the tool icon or the entire tool bar could change to done/exit/save/close.  Even still, ALL cancel/exit/close buttons should be located on the far right.  I really don't mind change, but clutter is bad.  What if they want to add two more tools that actually do something next year?

The other solution is to let us customize the panels a lot more.  There are so many sliders I don't use, and it would be great to hide ANY icon or slider I don't use.

Would you all be happy if Adobe renamed the Edit button as DONE?

"Not only that but the "EDIT" button doesn't seem to do ANYTHING"

It takes you out of any of the tools. Like the 'Done' button did. That means that clicking EDIT when you are not in any tool does indeed do nothing.

I don't know why so many people are comfortable/accepting with something being added to a key area and key location. 

• The entire Develop module is the EDIT mode in Lightroom. 
• Even the Library edits. 
• It even has sliders on it indicating that it has something to do with sliders.  The EDIT button does nothing yet remains highlighted.
• The tools are turned on and off by clicking on them, or using assigned keys.  What can be simpler than that?
• At least put it on the far right so that I can ignore it a little more easily.

This may seem like a minor issue, but it gives less confidence in the application, and the direction Adobe is headed.  That is a big deal.

Not only that but the "EDIT" button doesn't seem to do ANYTHING.  I even looked it up in the help manual and it is not even mentioned under the tools module.  Whoops!
