How can I compare two photos side in side in lightroom 3.2.1?

[crr21601324]

Hi All,

I'm looking for the option to examine two images side by side in Lightroom.  I've found lots of posts online about how to do this with previous versions of lightroom, but I can't find a simple guide on how to do this in Lightroom 3.2.1.  Is that no longer an option in Lightroom?   If anyone could tell me, I'd be most grateful.

Thank you!

The 'compare side by side' function is not available in v3.2.1

You only have the Before/After 'Original' view that uses the keyboard \ key or click on the icon-

Unfortunately, this is not an option with the web-based Lightroom; you would need to be working in the desktop-based application of Lightroom Classic.

This feature has been added to Lightroom as of version 5.4 (June, 2022).
