"new version of Lightroom"

 

Important to realize that Lightroom Cloudy is NOT a new version of Lightroom. It is a paralel version of Lightroom. Lightroom Classic is the new version of Lightroom as we knew it before. What Adobe calls Lightroom Desktop is actually a port of the mobile version of Lightroom with all its limitations to Desktop operating systems. It is not "the new version". It is just different and has different strengths and weaknesses.

'Edit as Layers' is not an option in Lightroom (v4.0 Cloud). (Maybe one day!)

Workaround is to open each image in separate documents, then drag into one 'document' as layers.

 

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 .

    I hope they add that in... its a bit silly and redundant to have so many different versions of Lightroom.
