Question

Change keyboard arrows (Left & Right) in Lightroom

Hello everyone! I was wondering if there is a way to change the arrow keys (left & right) on the keyboard and and use instead two other keys on the left side of the keyboard for example letters A&S. The reason I want to do that is beacause it would come more handy when I edit on my laptop. Thanks

My (Windows PC) mouse scroll wheel has two actions-

With cursor hovered over the image being developed- scroll wheel changes the photo in the develop window.

With cursor hovered over the Filmstrip- scroll wheel moves left/right in the Filmstrip, but does not change the photo in the develop window.

Maybe mouse with a scroll wheel is more convenient than the cursor keys.

 

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

Thank you for your answer WobertC. I need to change the photos in the develop mode, that is possible only by keyboard.

I don’t think it’s possible. The L&R arrow keys are hard wired for moving along the film strip when editing or viewing photos in the Library Detail view.

Thank you for your response 99jon! I am afraid that's the case.
