This is probably not the moaning forum but how else do I present concerns to Adobe?   What happened to the "Default" buttons in the Basic and the newly renamed Color Mixer  panels? In the Basic panel I frequently hit the Auto button and, if I don't like what I see, I need to reset ALL the sliders to defaults with a single click not one at a time please. Yes I know that I can reset the entire image to defaults but then I lose every other edit I may have made. Also where are the extremely useful  + and - buttons at the ends of each slider scale? I used to use these all the time. May we please have them returned? ... View more

Add-on Utility Script Pack for Bridge was updated Each time I start up my 2nd Windows 10 PC I receive the above notification. I don't have the Utility Script Pack installed on this PC. I do have it installed on my primary PC on which I sign in to the same Adobe account so is this perhaps the reason I see the notifaction?  Is there any way to stop this notifiaction occurring on my 2nd PC? - it confuses the user who is usually not me! ...

Bridge Photo Downloader Will Not Open I am running Adbobe Bride 2020 on a Windows 10 PC. Everything was working fine until unfortunately I experienced a power outage when I was using Bridge, Now I find everything I use in Bridge appears to work as normal (at least everthing I have tried) except for the Photo Downloader which simply will not open when I click on its camera icon. If I find its executable file in Program Files and run it from there, it opens just fine but it will not open from Bridge itself.  Something clearly got corrupted during the power cut so can anyone suggest what to do to effect a cure short of reinstalling Bridge?   ...

For a certain logical reason I need to enclose a particular set of keywords in some form of parentheses but not round brackets. [ and ] cannot be use as they have special meaning in Bridge i.e. excluded keywords. I tried < and > which work in Bridge but when exporting to Lightroom they are stripped  because Lightroom seems to interpret them as hierarchical separators. Finally I tried { and }. That seemd to satisfy both Bridge and Lightroom. I was happy for a while. Then a noticed a curious occurrence - If I reimport my keywords into Bridge, keywords enclosed in the { and } characters are not imported. Their parent keyword is, but not the keywords themselves. Does Bridge attach a special meaning to these characters which I am unaware of?     ... View more

RE Latest Camera Raw GPU Acceleration Features (Version 11.4.0.273) I am using a Windows 10 Pro system. I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti GPU and have DX12 up and running. I have the latest Bridge CC, Photoshop CC and Lightroom Classic CC all up to date. I normally access Camera Raw from Bridge. In Camera Raw preferences under "Performance", three days ago I could check the box "Use GPU for image processing (Process Version 5 or higher)" and all worked well. Today that option is greyed out and only "Use GPU for display" is available. More curiously in Lightroom Classic CC the option "Use GPU for image processing (Process Version 5 or higher)" is still available and works fine. Lighroom Preferences states that "Full graphics acceleration is enabled." Why did ACR plugin decide that it didn't like my system for full GPU acceleration when originally it seemed quite content? What can I do to circumvent this problem? ... View more

My system is Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit (Version 1809 OS Build 17763.292) running Photoshop CC 2019 (Version: 20.0.2 20181219.r.30 2018/12/19: 1202136  x64) ACR is version 11.1.0.112. I am certain that everything is completely up to date. I have installed new monitors running with native resolution 2560 x 1440 (Recommended) and with Windows scaling set to 125% (Recommended) All Adobe software works well apart from one issue with ACR with which I am aware. This is that Adjustment Brush pins and Graduated Filter pins are much larger than they should be or used to be and worse, they cannot be easily selected. Fiddling around with the mouse pointer in the general vicinity of the pin may locate the selection spot but this is rather hit and miss. Clicking on one directly adds a new pin rather than selecting it. I have found that the problem can be fixed in two ways, neither of which is satisfactory: 1. Set Windows scaling to 100% (Then text in other applications is too small to read.) 2. In Camera Raw Preferences, under Performance, switch off "Use Graphics Processor" (Then certain features no longer function, in particular Scrubby Zoom in ACR.) (GPU is GeForce GTX 750 ti) Either of these two actions brings things back to "normal" but produces unwanted effects elsewhere. This is undoubtedly a Windows 10 scaling issue. I have seen similar though not identical issues reported elsewhere and have not found a satisfactory solution. Is this regarded as a bug in the ACR software? Any assistance would be welcome. ...

Has anybody any experience to share regarding Bridge CC 2019 on 4K displays? There is plenty to read regarding UI size issues but no simple solution that I have seen. I must add that I don't have 4K displays myself so I have not seen the issue personally. I was considering buying 4K displays but I don't wish to go that way if I will be unable to use Bridge. (Same comments with Photoshop CC 2019 too!) ... View more

I have Bridge CC Version 9.0.2.219 x64 running on a Windows 10 PC. I have several folders in Favorites which all have the same name, namely 2019 for the current year, but they do not display consistently. Sometimes no folder paths are shown: Sometimes some folder paths are shown, some fully, some with ellipsis ... : Sometimes all folder paths are shown in full: If I close and reopen Bridge one of the above will occur but which one is quite unpredictable. Can anybody explain what is happening here? Is there a cure? ... View more
