Crop in Loupe View using Quick Develop

The ability to crop in Loupe view would be incredibly useful when processing offline images (I'm referring to Crop Overlay of course, not the simple, centred crop ratio currently available). This would be a tremendous help in the editing process. I also feel that for normal use, not having to go to full Develop would also create a much faster and efficient workflow for volume shooters. Cropping does not normally require accurate colour so preview quality is more than adequate for the task.

Wait!
Don't forget White Ballance dropper too!
And dont' forget to add fine-tune control to QuickDevelop palette!
(Suggested behaviour: click-and-drag of central(reset) button should bring fine-tune conttrol like click-and-drag numbers in Basic palette.)
And! give us Active histogram conrtol in library.
A'm always trying to drag it in Library by mistake...

  • Detail seen different in Develop view and Loupe view

    I recently took some aurora pictures, and was adjusting them to put in a slideshow, and noticed something peculiar, i.e., that the details seen in the Develop module are less than those seen in the Loupe view in the Library.  This is true in several pictures.  The Develop view (2nd picture) is smoother and shows fewer of the fainter stars than the Loupe view (first picture).  I hope it shows in the pictures below, which I created by using the Snipping Tool in Windows.
    Why is this the case?
    The problem is that the Slideshow results in LR seem to be closer to the Loupe view than the Develop view.
    The Exif information is as follows:
    and the adjustments I made were:
    and
    I'm using the LR 2014 v 8.7.1, Camera Raw 8.7.1.
    TIA.

    Hi Michael:
    You're right. When I magnified the view to 100%, the results in the two modules were identical, as you said.
    It does, however, raise a practical difficulty for me.  With these kinds of long exposure, high ISO pictures, if I zoom in to 1:1, I find it extremely difficult to make any adjustments because the noise is so high.  I would basically set all the noise sliders to max, and the details to minimum.  However, this results in overadjusting  for noise and losing too much detail when the picture is viewed zoomed out to fit on a computer monitor as a slideshow.  Usually, this is not a problem, but at the high ISO/long exposures of these pictures, I find it very difficult to work in the develop module at 1:1.

  • Why does Auto Tone button in Quick Develop panel fail with Win 7 platform?

    I have been a user of Photoshop since the inception of Photoshop CS.  I recently purchased a subscription to Photoshop CC, which comes with Photoshop Lightroom 5.
    I have never used Lightroom, so I purchased the Kindle version of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5, CLASSROOM IN A BOOK.  I have this eBook installed on the same Windows 7 PC that I have Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5 installed on.
    I ran into a problem in a section of the first chapter titled “Using Quick Develop in the Library module.”  This section, in part, instructs how to quickly improve the color tonal balance of an image.
    After selecting the required image from the sample images for this lesson, I found the histogram in my Lightroom 5 Loupe view to be the same as the lesson’s photo illustration for this original image.  As described in the lesson, the photo did not have a balanced tonal distribution.
    I followed the lesson’s instruction:  “4. In the Quick Develop panel, watch the tone distribution curve shift in the Histogram panel as you click the Auto Tone button.  Although the automatic adjustment hasn’t done a perfect job with this particular photo, there is substantial improvement; a lot of image detail has been recovered from the overexposed hair and face and there is more depth in the mid-tones. The contrast, however, remains unimpressive, and the darker areas still look flat.”  (See Adobe Creative Team [2013-08-06]. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5: Classroom in a Book [Kindle Locations 1024-1026]. Pearson Education. Kindle Edition.)
    This is where I ran into a problem.  After clicking on the Auto Tone Button in the Quick Develop panel, my results were completely different than what was described and shown in the Histogram displayed in the lesson.  Instead, in my Lightroom 5, clicking the Lightroom Auto Tone button has increased the exposure, making it even more over exposed than the original image!  Therefore continuing to follow the instructions in the lesson was a waste of time, since my Auto Tone results were so totally out of sync from that of the lesson.
    This disturbed me, so I decided to open the same sample image in Photoshop CC, Camera RAW 8.2.  Camera RAW provides an Auto Button which improves exposure and color tonal balance to an image.  The results were exactly the same as the Auto Tone functionality in the Quick Develop panel in Lightroom 5.  I couldn't understand why the lesson instructor's results were so positive and mine were so disastrous.  Then it hit me!  I discovered that the lesson writer of this Adobe Classroom in a Book was using Lightroom 5 on a MAC computer.  I could tell by looking at his lesson images.  Just to be sure, I tried this lesson scenario on a different PC with Win 7, Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5.  I got the same failed results.
    I’ve heard from other professionals that Photoshop and Lightroom software only work properly on Apple computers.  I’ve always thought that this was a myth, but have infrequently experienced a good result using the Auto button feature in Photoshop Camera Raw on a Windows PC platform, so I don’t use it often.
    What really has me frustrated is the fact that Adobe no longer has a direct way to report software defects to their tech support or process improvement  teams.  Their online bug reporting process is woefully inadequate.  I've tried twice to create a support ticket on the Adobe site, only to have my case withdrawn mysteriously.  I've tried their online chat, telephone support, and sent emails with image attachments to the address provided by their agent on the telephone.  My email goes unanswered and my open cases somehow get closed.
    Any ideas on how to get this issue addressed by Adobe are sincerely appreciated.

    Adobe tries to improve the Auto Tone function from time-to-time.  I used to completely underexpose an image that had a few bright spots such as car headlights turned on in an otherwise properly exposed image.  This is probably what you’re seeing, LR now guessing brighter more of the time, and it might change, again, in a future version so don’t be too concerned.  
    As others have said, Auto Tone works on some images and not on others, and Adobe can only try to make it work better on more images by changing how it works on all images.  For the lesson example, the author purposely used an image that was improved with auto-tone that LR did at the time of authorship.   You will never have a picture exactly like the lesson’s example, either, so it’s not that important if the lesson is 100% accurate for future versions of LR, just that the general idea that some pictures are improved in certain ways by Auto Tone will still be applicable, and you’ll need to learn, by trial and error, what to do when Auto Tone doesn’t work well or the image needs further adjustment.  That is the important lesson, what to do with your own pictures.
    You can reset a particular slider after a bad Auto Tone by double clicking on that slider.  The Exposure slider is the one I reset most often. 
    You can also LR set the Auto Tone value for just one slider by holding down the Shift key and double clicking on that one slider.  I do this a lot for the Blacks slider to set the black point, without messing up everything else.

  • Can LR show the numbers in Quick developement panel?

    Try to use quick development panel, it is easy to use but for exposure, clarity and vibrance you cannot see how many stops you have adjusted.
    Can LR show the numbers in Quick development panel?
    Any comment?

    >tt688 - 6:49am Sep 23, 08 PST (#2 of 6)
    >I think that Quick Deve function is useless if you can not see the how >many stops you have adjusted.
    When LR first came out I did not "get" the Quick Dev function. Luminous Landscape have an excellent video tutorial for LR by Michael Reichmann and Jeff Schewe.
    It explains that the QD function is there to allow you to make quick visual adjustments to images to assist in choosing picks / rejects and generally culling a shoot. Until you have the exposure / contrast / colour balance somewhere near correct, it is difficult to properly evaluate a shot. Using QD like this then makes sense, it's not supposed to duplicate or take the place of the develop module.
    Note that the adjustments you make in QD are relative, that is if you select a group of generally underexposed shots and increase the exposure the amount will be relative to each shots original exposure level.

  • How do I disable the tone control on Quick Develop in the Library Module (Lightroom 3)?

    I would prefer not to have Lightroom make
    these choices automatically for me when I import
    my images.  My Lightroom 3 book only
    discusses how to use Quick Develop.  Thanks.

    On the Preferences Presets tab, turn off "Apply auto tone adjustments".

  • Preview Panel Appears Brighter than Loupe View In Develop Module

    Settings and Hardware:
    - Macintosh 15" Power Book G4
    - Lightroom Version 2.1
    - Attached Apple Cinema Display
    - Mac OSX 10.4.11
    When viewing Lightroom on the PowerBook monitor all is well and the Preview Pane shows the same brightness value. Yet when the Lightroom interface is brought over to the Cinema Display the Preview pane in the Develop Module is significantly brighter than the main image in the Loupe View.
    Any help with getting the value of the Preview Pane to the same brightness value of the Loupe view would be of help. Or if there is a simple explanation as to why this happens, that would also be appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Jarrod.

    Monitors should be calibrated at around 120 cd/m2. This is usualy around 2/3 brightness for Cinema displays and around 4 to 5 clicks back from maximum on a mac book Pro. If you don't, you'll think all your prints are far too dark.
    >being a different luminance than the loupe view image on the same monitor
    huh? I thought you were comparing between monitors?
    Lightroom might not realize that you moved the entire interface to a different monitor and use the wrong profile or it forgets to use the different profile for the preview. This is very common even in managed apps. Lightroom does have a nice dual monitor interface now that uses the correct profiles for both monitors, but I don't think it likes the main window being dragged over.

  • Problems using Quick Migrate in SQL Developer 1.5 for MySQL to Oracle 10g

    Hi all,
    I am trying to use SQL Developer 1.5 migration tools (Quick Migrate) to perform online capture and build source model to migrate from MySQL 5.x to Oracle 10g on Windows platform. I get these errors and the Quick Migrate process fails:
    oracle.dbtools.metadata.persistence.PersistableObject.doInsert(PersistableObject.java:238)
    I did a search and used the sqldeveloper.cmd script but still fails. Then I created a new database and truncated the repository. I now get the above error plus two new ones listed below:
    oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
    Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
    Error occurred during capture: Protocol violation
    It fails during the capture process for MySQL 5.1 database
    when it begins to capture the tables from MySQL.
    Does anyone know how to resolve these issues when migrating from MySQL to Oracle 10g using Quick Migrate with SQL Developer 1.5 release?

    Hi all,
    I put the following in my sqldeveloper.cmd file:
    SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
    What is very confusing is that with SQL Developer 1.5, there are several levels and several SQL Developer executables! I am really not sure which of these to use:
    I created the SQLDeveloper 1.5 directory called SQLDeveloper1_5 on Windows:
    1) cd C:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338
    there exists a sqldeveloper.exe
    2) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe
    3) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloer\bin\sqldeveloper.exe
    Which SQLDeveloper 1.5 executable should I be using and where should I place the
    sqldeveloper.cmd file?
    Also I did try to use a different database and schema for the repository with Quick Migrate but it appears a bug exists in SQL Developer 1.5 version that causes errors with Quick Migrate for MySQL to Oracle? Is this correct?
    As an update, I ran the following commands:
    cd to
    c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin
    sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
    Start sqldeveloper.exe
    Perform standard capture for MySQL using the new mig2 schema as the new repository
    It starts the capture but fails on the errors below:
    Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
    UPDATE
    ============================
    I tried this again and it worked with the exception of one error message listed below:
    Here are the steps that I followed:
    1. Create a Windows cmd script
    Put the following entries in the script:
    SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
    save the command windows script as sqldeveloper.cmd
    Copy this script to the base installation directory for SQLDeveloper
    Example:
    1. cd c:\SQLDeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper
    2. Start SQLDeveloper with the command script that you created earlier
    Example:
    Open a Windows shell prompt window and execute the following scripts:
    a) sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
    b) sqldeveloper.exe
    3) In SQL Developer 1.5
    From the Migrate menu,
    a) Delete current repository and create a new schema in Oracle target database call it mig2.
    b) Then create a new repository in SQL Developer 1.5
    c) Right mouse click on the MySQL 5.x database and choose capture
    It worked with the exception of one error message:
    o.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver     
    Error while registering Oracle JDBC Diagnosability MBean.
    So it looks like something is screwed up with my JDBC drivers and configuration for MySQL. How do I diagnose the JDBC driver issue for MySQL?
    Thanks!!!

  • "D" (Develop Loupe View) shortcut ignored in some cases

    When in "Spot Removal", "Red Eye", "Graduated Filter" and "Adjustment Brush" modes, the "D" shortcut key is ignored.  This is strange as all the other shortcuts, such as G (Grid View), E (Library Loupe View), C (Compare View) work fine.

    You can press the active tool's shortcut to dismiss it. For example, hit K to activate the Adj. Brush and hit K again to dismiss.
    Hitting Enter also dismisses any active develop module tool.
    But D, never did what you're asking to.

  • Only using Quick Edit to interact with a list/view in Sharepoint 2013

    Hello All,
    I would like users to only interact with a view in Quick Edit mode as it has all the functions I need (Edit,add and delete) without having to open Web Forms. Is there a way to hide the "New Item" link on all current and future views for a list?  
    Thanks
    MM

    Lobo,
    If you want to hide "+ New Item" which come as web part top left corner, then edit web part
    Select "Data Sheet view" as default view from "Selected view" drop down of "edit web part property"
    - "Data Sheet view" as web part don't show " + New Item" link.
    If that list is display as web part in any of the page not as data sheet view as default then below steps will help.
    Make "Toolbar type" as No toolbar just below selected view
    Change view style to default to "Basic table" from "Edit the current view" of "edit web part property"
    If you want to remove "new item" from file tab of ribbon, then permission need to be removed as contributor to read only. 
    Please 'propose as answer' if it helped you, also 'vote helpful' if you like this reply.

  • Grey thumbnail, grey loupe view-- no photograph displayed in library mode

    When I import a new batch of photographs my library mode, both in grid and loupe view will not show my new photographs.  And not that it just takes a bit of time to load-- the picture will not show, only gray.  This has only happened in the last month or so.  Previously everything worked well.  
    To get my pictures showing I have to go to develop mode and view them.  The loading is taking considerably longer than it used to as well.  I've been into my preference pane and can't see what to do.  As per a tutorial I upped my "Camera Raw Cache Settings" to 50 GB.  The problem hasn't coincided with this change however.  I don't know what is going on but I am frustrated to have all photos load but not show up in Grid or Loupe mode. 
    Any ideas?  I have over 7,000 photos in library.  I've validated and checked library and it comes back okay.
    Thanks for your help. 
    My computer is a newer 27" imac so I should have plenty of juice to run the program.  Hard drive space isn't an issue as I have a 1TB.

    Sounds like a corrupted preview cache.  Let's test that theory.  Close LR. Find your catalog on your hard drive, and rename the Previews.lrdata or move it to another location - you can delete it later when we know the new one's ok.  Now restart LR, go to Grid view, select all and go to Library menu > Previews > Render Standard Previews.  Hopefully that'll bring back your previews and if everything looks correct, you can then delete the previous one.

  • Lightroom 4: Massive BUG with White Balance / Quick Develop. Totally Unreliable!

    I just recently updated from LR3 and just now found a massive bug concerning the white balance adjustments in the quick develop module.
    After a studio shooting and especially after weddings I use the "make warmer" adjustment in the quick develop panel to give all (a few thousand NEFs) a nicer look all at once.
    The great thing about this is - like all quick developments - that it increases the color temperature relative to each image's starting white balance.
    Yesterday I wanted to edit my first wedding in LR4 and like in LR3 applied one click "make warmer" to all images at once (previously WB was "as shot").
    While I browsed through the images to rate them I noticed some of them were very "pinkish".
    After closer inspection it came out that a lot of images (50%-60%) had the following custom WB set: 5316, Tint: +10.
    It is always this exact combination no matter what the "as shot" WB was.
    That setting of course applies way too much magenta to a lot of images.
    After resetting the WB of single images to "as shot" and selecting "make warmer" once again the images look fine and get appropriate WB values.
    But every time I select more than one image to apply "make warmer" a lot of them get the strange value of 5316 and +10.
    Sometimes it's even just the first few images of the selection that get correct values and all the following ones get the off value. It appears to be totally random.
    I tried completely resetting all images prior to "make warmer", setting them to different camera profiles first and even switched them to Process 2010 again. But absolutely no luck!  :-(
    The "make warmer" tool gives me totally unusable results.
    I find it strange, that I couldn't find anything about that on the net.
    PLEASE fix this ASAP.
    To apply WB to thousands of images individually is a real pain.
    I would be glad to support you fixing the issue.
    My setup:
    Nikon D700
    Nikon D300s
    (Both cameras affected, I only shoot NEF)
    Win7 x64
    LR4.1 as well as LR4.2 RC

    @ssprengel
    I get your point but that is exactly my problem.
    Not only is there no pattern but also once I reset a file that got 5316+10 to "as shot" and select "make warmer" for it again it does get the correct value! As long as I select it as a single file without others.
    So just to simplify my findings and explain what I have been doing all night:
    - SELECT 5 files in Library View (all freshly imported, no settings altered, WB "as shot")
    File 1: 5700 / -8
    File 2: 5500 / -8
    File 3: 5550 / -8
    File 4: 5450 / -6
    File 5: 5500 / -7
    - CLICK "make warmer" once
    Result:
    File 1: 6089 / -8
    File 2: 5867 / -8
    File 3: 5316 / +10
    File 4: 5316 / +10
    File 5: 5316 / +10
    1 and 2 are okay!
    - SELECT 3-5
    - RESET THEM
    Result:
    File 3: 5550 / -8
    File 4: 5450 / -6
    File 5: 5500 / -7
    - CLICK "make warmer" again
    Result:
    File 3: 5316 / +10
    File 4: 5812 / -6
    File 5: 5867 / -7
    File 4 and 5 are okay!
    - SELECT File 3 again
    - RESET IT
    - CLICK "make warmer"
    Result:
    File 3: 5923 / -8
    now File 3 is okay, too.
    It is completely random!
    But that is no way to work, of course.
    I have two weddings from last week and am going nuts already.

  • Time conversion problem using sql developer

    Hi,
    I migrated my data from sql server 2 oracle 10g using the following procedure
    1.Created a ODBC from Access-2003 to sql server
    2.Imported the tables
    3. Used Quick migrate feature in SQL DEVELOPER 2 migrate the data to oracle....
    Now when i view the data in my forms (oracle forms 10g)...... along with time a date is also appearing in the time field...when actually thrz no date field present
    Ex;
    In access and sql server table it is suppose
    9:00 Am
    IN oracle forms it is appearing as
    12-4-2010 9:00 Am
    can any 1 help me out how to remove this date which is appearing in all the records..??!!!

    The datatype of that column is now 'Date'. Anyway, timestamp without date will not be of much help in date calculations. If you do not care about the date portion, simply do a to_char and display as mentioned here: to_char(<your column name>, 'HH24:MI:SS AM'). Ensure that <your column name> datatype is not Character, if it so, you will get ORA-01722 error.

  • Missing Loupe View File Info

    I use the File Info feature a lot in Loupe View. However recently it does not show despite selecting it in the View>Loupe Info Menu. Control+I also fails to work. It happened before recent upgrade so do not link it with that software change.
    In the past I occasionally had to reset the viewing option to reinstate visibility, for no apparent reason. Has anyone had a similar problem and found a permanent cure? Thank you.

    Hal, thank you. Yes, I have tried all known short cuts. I forgot to mention I am using Windows 7 OS.
    Strangely, I have just been into Develop module and the data is presented as normal there. Very odd!

  • Using quick query component

    hi,
    I am using quick query component. There is any way to show in the combo box of the quick query component only some and not all fields, because I do not need to display all.
    Please..

    Vane,
    If you're using ADF Business Components - I believe you can do this by creating a named view criteria on your View Object and then dragging-and-dropping the named view criteria on to the page as an af:quickQuery - haven't tested this personally, though.
    A really quick test - no more time today - seems to show that named view criteria can create an af:query, but I didn't see af:quickQuery as an option...
    Time to read the Fusion Developer's Guide, I guess.

  • LR3 loupe view slow to load

    I'm running LR3 on an iMac with 4 gig ram.  My thumbnails load very quickly, much better than LR2.  But, loading a loupe view is slow, 10-15 seconds.  Additionally, the loading process "hiccups" about half way through, whereby the magnified image becomes clear, blurs and then sharpens.  Anyone else had this experience, and is there any solution?  Thanks.

    Hi John
    People tend to invest large amounts of money in cameras like the Canon EOS 5D mk II or the EOS 7D without any corresponding investment in computer hardware, myself included.
    It’s not surprising that expectations of handling very large 18 or 21 mega pixel raw files are often unrealistic.
    For me Lightroom is much quicker than using Bridge, ACR and Photoshop or the Canon utility DPP and Photoshop.
    I’m not familiar with the iMac but I was running the Beta version on my old windows XP machine but have upgraded to a new windows 7 system with a much faster Intel processor and greater RAM. Ligtroom 3 is now a real pleasure to use with a noticeable improvement in the speed of using the selective adjustment tools.
