P: Add Custom Brush Presets

I was (and still am, I guess) so, so excited about the launch of the new CC. However, I was extremely disappointed to find that there is no local adjustments folder to add custom brush presets. I chatted with an Adobe Support rep and they said that it "may be added in the future" and to post on here.

I cannot believe that I have to post on here asking for Adobe to add a main chunk of my workflow back into Lightroom. I can't be the only one whose LR workflow is affected by the lack of this capability.

Hi,

How can I create a brush preset in Lightroom CC? I can save presets for general modification settings, but have not found a way to do it for brushes. I would like to create a few brush presets for the brush settings that I often use.

Thanks,

Vlad

Hi Vlad,

You cannot create custom brush presets in Lightroom as of now, please checkout this discussion for more info: Lightroom CC: Custom Brush Presets | Photoshop Family Customer Community

Hi Akash,

It makes sense then, well that's a pity because brush presets would make my edits much faster...

Thank you for your quick answer!

Cheers,

Vlad

Any update here? Custom brush presets is so important and I don't understand why it's been deprioritized by Adobe.

I miss the ability to use the pre saved mask options on Lr for iPad. For example, I always use the ‘iris enhance’ to pop the eyes in a portrait when editing on a computer, and now I have to set the values for the mask to each photo.

Come on Adobe - you really need to start making improvements with your CC product otherwise people are going to start moving platforms. The lack of custom brushes for CC is baffling.

This is so ridiculous. Adobe please fix this ASAP. This is a total preset developer pain in the ass and a total buzzkill for CC. It's been 2 years! Let's get it together peeps.

Hi, 

Why has brush presets been removed from the CC version? I love the online system, but eliminating key functionality from the application makes me want to stop using LR all together.

So three years later we still have no local adjustment presets? Please, Adobe, add this to one of your next releases!

This is a big request ever since the release of Lightroom mobile and Lightroom (formerly known as "CC"). One of the reasons I still use my Lightroom Classic are my custom brushes for retouching. And of course the synchronization feature. While there is a workaround to sync the edit from one photo to others, there is no workaround for my dozens of different brushes (for hair, skin, lips, ...). Please Adobe, bring this feature to one of your next upgrades. You come a long way with Lightroom mobile, go for the rest 🙂 Cheers, Markus

I would like to see the ability to add brush presets in Lightroom CC. Apparently, for some reasons, it is only available in LR Classic.

This used to be straight forward in the previous version but how do you save brush settings as a preset for future use? This seems so basic but is somehow no longer intuitive. I have not managed to find information on this for some reason.

Brush presets are not currently available in the cloud-based apps. I'll merge this thread into the feature request so you can vote on it.
