Hi everyone! I have been using Lightroom for a decade, but only started experimenting with Bridge, because LR takes quite a lot of space from my hard drive as the catalogs get huge. It seems that Bridge would be more efficient in that sense. At least for now it also seems that culling photos is a lot faster with bridge, because it opens previews a lot faster. So I am thinking, should I maybe use Bridge to cull and narrow down the photos and then import only the selected ones to Lightroom or maybe ditch the Lightroom completely and use Bridge+Camera Raw+Photoshop.   However, I have a couple of questions. Is there any way to customise the keyboard shortcuts? I love how easy picking usable and refusing unusable photos in Lightroom is. X marks a photo refused and after going through them all just press comand-delete, and it delete all the unusable away from taking up the hard drive space. It seems that in Bridge you can mark a photo as rejected by pressing backspace/delete, but when you want to delete the rejected, you have to go to filters and choose to show the rejected, then choose all and then you can delete the. That´s quite a lot of clicks in my opinion. What am I missing here? The same goes in creating a collection: in Lightroom you create a collection and by pressing b the photo is added to the collection. Am I missing something or is it really imbossible to change the keyboard shortcuts in Bridge? Or do I really have to select all the photos I want to put in a collection and manually drag them in it? How is this thought in Bridge? Comparing two similar photos. Sometimes you have to compare two or even more photos to choose the one you pick. I know you can choose multiple photos at the same time in Preview mode, but how do you then mark one of them as a pick and reject another? If I try to move from one photo to another, the selection goes away. What about filtering by the keywords? It seems to me that Bridge is designed so that you are supposed to keep all your photos in one folder. Otherwise, whenever you are trying to search photos by filtering by keywords, you have to go to the menus and tell Bridge to include the subfolders as well. If you don´t do it, you have the option to filter by only those keywords that are used in the photos that are in the exact folder that is active at the moment. Is there any way to make this (including subfolders) as a default setting? I know it´s not much if you only do it rarely, but if your workflow needs filtering keywords frequently, it gets a bit annoying. ... View more

Hi everyone! I am usin MacOS and in my apps folder there are two folders: Maxon Cinema 4D 2023 (size 2,05Gb) and Maxon Cinema 4D R25 (size 1,54gb). These both seem to be last modified quite close to each other, only 2 months apart. I am assuming these are related to After Effects, but my question is are these both needed? Can I get rid of either one an if so, which one?   Thanks for your help in advance, TeeKoo   ... View more

Hi, I bought a new laptop and imported all the settings and software from the old one. In the old laptop I had LR Classic. Now, all of a sudden it has turned into CC2015. What happened? When I was trying to launc LR in my new computer for the first time I needed to log in to my Adobe account. However I did not check any boxes to upgrade. Is this just some trial thing or what? I do not want to pay any monthly fees for I have once purchased LR6 already. Where do I find the info if that has happened or not? Thanks. ... View more
