Good to hear you've got a workaround for the preset creation issue (I thinki that's effectively the method I suggested in my "Issue 1" notes earlier, using another application, like TextEdit or in your case Preview, to create the preset). However, in my experience, although the presets can be created this way, it was still a bit of a lottery whether the correct ICC profile would be used from the preset, when you select it and click Print (as a result of the other issues). I'd be interested to know if you get 100% success, just by choosing your preset (without first selecting the Default Settings and saving, as per my "Issue 3" notes), as that's really the most significant issue here... the somewhat random selection of the wrong ICC profile when printing from LrC, resulting in the colours being incorrect. The rest of the issues can be largely worked around.

You’ve posted to an ancient thread. It is highly unlikely that the issue described in this thread, though not impossible, is the same one you are currently experiencing. Rather than resurrect an old thread that is seemingly similar, you are better off posting to a new thread with fresh, complete information, including system information, a complete description of the problem, and step-by-step instructions for reproduction.
If the issue is the same, we will merge you back into the appropriate location. 

This thread will be locked.
Thank you!

Adding HSL Masking sliders as an alternative to the color point selector in color range mask, simillar to HSL Secondary in Lumetri/Premire Pro. The color range is a great tool, but when batch editing shots where the color point moves it isn't ideal. Being able to mask with HSL Sliders as an alternative of having the color picker automatically adjust HSL sliders would be more useful I think.

One at a time. Sometimes neither reset cache nor resynchronization works. Only reboot Lr.To see the result. The option is not. The option can be forgotten and not even hope for change in 20 years. Experience working with products by Adobe.

OK, that is interesting, because Lightroom Classic is now included in the Lightroom plan as well. So the OP can disregard our advice and continue to use this odd workflow...

@Bob Somrakyou hit on it, Legend. I just used a different USB port on the PC and everything came in clean, uncorrupted. Weird! But very relieving and good to know!

Just using RESET may not get you back to the image without the import settings being applied. RESET just resets the image to the imported state. There are two included presets in LrC and one sets the image to Adobe Default and is called ADOBE DEFAULT and is located in the Default preset section. I placed this in Favorites and turned off the Default section. The other is Zeroed and it is in the Classic-General preset section. This sets all sliders to zero.

Ok, I'm not getting this. I use CR2 and CR3 files and run them through Denoise. The new file is xxx-Enhanced-NR.dng. The suggestion hereis to use "Preserved Filename" but that is set to the "Enhanced" name. The original xxx.CR3 name is gone. I don't see any option to hardcode or use a regex to remove parts of the name, only to insert. Can someone PLEASE post a solution that works with these dmg files? Or better yet, can someone from Adobe give us naming options? I can choose to show a flourish in the Lightroom window but I can't control file names. Crazy.

Hi all the tethering function of the EOS R5 MARK II is still not supported by LrC. I miss the feature since more than halb a year. Anyone else? When is it planned to support the tethering for the EOS R5 MARK II?

Hi I'm Blake, a wildlife photographer from South Africa. I just want to know if the dev team at Adobe are willing to create a feature that allows you to layer presets in Lightroom Mobile for iPhones. e.g. when you apply a (Exposure +2) Preset and then being able to apply a (HDR +1) Preset on top. Please note: These are my own Presets, and not the (Users Presets). Kind regards, Blake

The obvious way the lock tool on aspect ratio should work is that it STAYS locked on that aspect ratio until the user unlocks it, regardless of the image you're editing. In other words, it shouldn't even need to be synced across other photos. The crop tool has NEVER worked correctly, and I've used every version of Liughtroom. As far as I can tell, the lock means nothing and has no predictable behavior other then to reset itself when you need it to stay the same.

I would agree, when I join my photos together it is EXACTLY the middle photo. Super frustrating when I am trying to do real estate on a sunny snowy day, all windows are now overblown because it will not work.

I know this is an old thread. As AI advances, it just might be possible in the future to separate them.
By @Chrisn N
Actually, if the double exposure is a raw file, it might be worth trying the new window reflection removal feature currently available for Technology Preview testing in Adobe Camera Raw 17. Adobe trained AI to recognize the difference between a subject and window reflections in front of it in the same image, separating them into two clean images. That technology might help separate the two images in an in-camera double exposure. Even though window reflections and an in-camera double exposure aren’t exactly the same thing, it would be worth trying.

Using LR Classic 14.1.1 on MacBook Pro 15.1.1 with 64 GB sometime in the last couple of updates I noticed two things. First, the right arrow wouldn't advance in Develop module and oftentimes, the image had not been updated from the pruor edits. Once I went back to Library and advanced the images, often the edit history would not be applied or there was a noticeable lag - the original raw image displaying and then the edits would be applied. A good percentage of the time, I would have to go back and click on the history to update the image in the Develop module. Once the edits were applied from the history, the right and left arrows worked in the develop module. It may be that the R & L arrow problem in the Develop module is due to a disconnect in finding and applying the edit history.

Hi @rbatey!
Thanks for your suggestion! I'd recommend heading over to the Lightroom Classic Ideas board to check if there's already a thread for your suggestion. You can upvote existing threads or start a new one if you don't see your idea listed. The team reviews these suggestions and prioritizes future releases based on the number of upvotes.
Here's the link: https://adobe.ly/3DKx77C.
Thanks again!
Best, Alek

It's unusual not to have a borderless option. What printer are you using? If you send other people an image without any borders then that is what they will see on their screens, but you can't "bake in" borderless printing to an image you send to others. How a recipient chooses to print your photo is up to them and the capabilities of their printer.

Hi Bob - question for you: In LrC 14.1.1, I go to Library > Metadata > Customize > Customize Metadata Default Panel, and am able to check the Preserve File Name box. So the next time I went to import new images, upon import, I went to Apply During Import > Metadata > New OR Edit Presets - and either way, the Preserve File Name doesn't come up as an option. What am I missing here? Is there a different way to be sure the original filename is accessible on renamed images (whether done during import, edits, or export)? In case it's helpful, I import IMG_1234.cr2 images, and export them as ABC-1.jpg, ABC-2.jpg. I want to be able to access the IMG_1234 filename when viewing the exported ABC-1.jpg image. (Attaching screenshots of the Default Panel and Presets for reference.) Thanks so much!

Lightroom V6, windows 11. Email was working for years. It stopped. I fixed, but don't know how. It stopped working 1 to 2 months ago. Three email accounts (all work outside of LR) are validated. None work. Failed to send everytime. I have spent hours (too many) scouring the interernet and forums. this is an important feature for me. It must work. Where is the problem Adobe, Lightroom or other. How do I get technical support? PS: I have been using LR since 2008. Help! Thank you, Bob
