P: (Masking) Permanent Mask tab on Development panel

I appreciate the new masks in Lightroom but I really think you need to permanetly integrate them into the workflow so to ease their use.

 

1)We need a permanent mask tab on the develop panel. Every time I open a new photo I have to open the mask tab even if it has already masks inside.

Furthermore we need a way to switch to the zoom tool while the mask tab is open. I know that there are other ways to zoom but nothing beats the shift+click+drag.

And last my develop panel has the width to fit 2 or 3 masks in a line. Why there has to be just one?

 

2)Yes Yes Yes, I want all my masks merged. If I want them replaced I'll inform the president. Do I really have to click it every time?

 

3)When I copy settings I also want to copy if a tab is on or off. It doesn't make any sense copying the settings of an active tab and paste them on an inactive tab and visa versa right?

 

4)Why did you make the tab switches so small? Are you afraid that someone might see them? Yes I play FPS and I am fairly good with mouse accurasy but I do sometimes miss the switch because I tend to look at the image not at the switch when I do that...

 

5)It's nice to be able to mouseover at the presets but could I also be able to also use the down and up arrow to scholl through them if you don't mind?

 

6)Replace Moire with color noise in the mask sliders.

 

7)Make a dedecated tool for brush Defringe. I spent half of my life using it. It deserves it.

 

8)In color grading there is a grey dot showing if the shadows midtones or highlightes are in use.

You can do the same with the curves and the HSL!!!

Also you can show us which tabs are on and altered by a red dot next to the switch or something. That is really important.

 

9)Make the keybindings customizable.

 

10)Make snapshots not undoable with ctrl+Z. Who wants to undo a snapshot?

So do you mind?

You could minimize it or disable it like the other tabs.

Not wanting this and not explaining why, probably you don't use masks, doesn't say much.

If you didn't use lightroom you wouldn't want it neither.

Who is this "we" of which you speak?

Do you mean "you"? Certainly I won't be the only person here who doesn't need (or want)  this...
