Local Adjustment Tool

A very very nice addition. That said, can someone kindly point me in the right direction as to where I can find more detailed info regarding let's say the Graduated filter tool. How for instance from the picker would I go about finding the equivalent of a 1 stop ND Grad filter and a 2 stop filter etc. The picker seems to have just about ever colour of the rainbow except a neutral grey but of course I guess that's just me. :-)

Ah, so the $ is an S? It's so small I wasn't sure what it was. So now that's it's an 'S' for Saturation that makes more sense. Would I be right in thinking then that the H stands for Hue although what the ° symbol has to do with it is anyones guess? Thanks for your perseverance but like I said earlier, this doesn't appear to be in print anywhere that I've looked.

  • Local Adjustment Tool - need a Blacks slider

    Is it possible to put a blacks slider in the local adjustment tool? Does anyone else wish this would happen?

  • Making later changes to Local Adjustment Tool

    While the local adjustment tool is great  - is there a way of "unpainting" parts of the adjustment, allowing you to refine areas/edges etc, rather than having to delete whole mask ?
    ie like switching from a black to a white brush when using Photoshop masks ?
    Also with gradient masks eg when object portudes into an adjusted sky area

    Pretty basic...hold down the Option (or Alt for Win) key while painting to erase. Note the erase key can have different size and hardness settings than the paint in brush. This is use for painting with a bigger broad brush and using a smaller harder brush to erase the mask.

  • Localized Adjustment Tool

    Using Windows 7, 32bit and Lightroom 4.4
    After setting up the tool when I drag the mouse into the image the Adjustment brush cursor changes
    from the normal circular target to a hardly visible, unknown graphic.. I can get the cursor to operate
    only if the brush size is above 35.  Can anyone help

  • Local white balance adjustment tool

    I really like the new local white balance adjustment tool. If I could change something will be to give a real color temperature to the tool instead of a number from -100 to 100. Let me give you an example of how I used it today.
    I forgot to bring some gels for my flashes for a photo shoot. I was using the flashes to illuminate the foreground and I had fluorescent lightening on the background. It was the perfect opportunity to try the new tool. I knew exactly what the color temperature for both front and back were. I applied the background color temperature of 3200k to the picture and when to locally change the foreground. At this point I was guessing what it should be at. My monitor is color calibrated but I was under fluorescent lights with my laptop. Instead I could have added +2200k or dialed 5500k to the local adjustment tool.
    Please let me know if you need more information.

    I'm sorry I found another discussion about this topic already. Shame on me I didn't do a more thorough search on it before.

  • Local adjustment brush, not in XMP file

    Local adjustment brush, not in XMP file
    I shoot everything on location and make minor edits while on location. My location edits usually transfer with the XMP file. I used the new local adjustment tool while on location, however when I got back to my main workstation and transferred the images the local adjustments were not there. Can this be fixed somehow, as it would be nice to only make those edits only once? I do not use as a catalog program, once the job is complete it is removed from the lightroom catalog so again those local adjustments are gone.
    Thanks
    Mark

    The problem may be and I am only guessing here that because no other program
    currently supports the adjustment brush options that that information is not
    added to XMP file. Not even Photoshop or ACR supports that as of yet. Though
    I honestly would have expected that information to be there anyways it would
    just be ignored by programs that don't know what to do with (basically
    everything but LR 2.0).
    Have you tried using DNG files. From what I understand an XMP file it not
    needed as the information that is normally in a XMP file in kept inside of
    the DNG file. This maybe another reason to go with the DNG format.
    Good luck.

  • Adjustment tools in Camera Raw not working

    Downloaded CS 5 and opened Camera Raw, then attempted to use the adjustment tool and received the following message "Unable to create local adjustment.  All the local adjustment controls are set to have no effect on the image."  Can anyone provide assistance please and thanks?

    I had the same problem and tried turning of GPU in Photoshop and in Lightroom which did not work, however in the RAW window when I found the preferences tab which is the tab with the 3 horizontal lines and unchecked GPU there Camera Raw did start working and the blue screen was replaced by my image.  Hope this clarifies it more and you get yours to wok also!

  • Brush, curves, filters and local adjustment request.

    Hi everyone
    I am using  Lightroom 2.6 for a long time and I love it.
    But some "basics" features  are still missing in this new version (3 beta 2) to be perfect.
    Here are some improvement ideas in the developpement module.
    The  brush tool is poor
    Why is it not possible to manage local adjustment in dark medium and light tons?
    Adding possibilities of inverting the mask you've created with the brush (rather than making a new one)
    Managing the saturation of just one color using the brush.
    The  curveWhy not  adding RGB chanel curve? 
    Filters
    Adding  some chanels filters for W&B like red green blue.
    I think my comments come a bit late, but we never know.
    Ps: I know that we can make all those things in Photoshop, but then, why using Lightroom ?! I don't like Aperture but you can make that "basics" adjusments with it…
    Greg (from Switzerland)

    Please change this!!!!
    In my old version (2.6) I really appeciated the way to  swich between "before and after" just by cliquing on "<".
    Now  this short cut change the exposition???

  • Unable to Create local Adjustment in RAW

    I was editing my images on RAW when all of a sudden I guess I pressed an incorrect key (yeah you know those split seconds where something happened and you dont know what you did) and now everytime I want to use the Graduated Filter tool or the Adjustment Brush tool and I press on top of the image it gives me the following message:
    ERROR:
    Unable to Create Local Adjustment. All the local adjustment controls are set to have
    no effect on this image
    It doesnt work on ANY raw images now, I tried pressing "Reset Camera Raw Defaults" and it still doesnt work.
    Is there a setting that I moved without noticing??
    At the time this happened I had 6 pictures on camera Raw I had synchronized them and I was doing small adjustments to one of the images, I had finished using the Graduated Filter tool on an image when then all of a sudden it stopped working
    Thank you for your help!! I need to finish this project today and now I am going to have to sit and wait to resolve. Thanks again

    I'm having the same 'Unable to create local adjustment …' problem too. But I don't understand the answer, specifically what 'values' should be modified, where do I find them to modify, and what kind of modification. Apologies for my ignorance, but I can't find anything despite searching the forums as well as I can.
    Values on the sliders in the box on the right of the picture.
    And next time try F1 before you waste time using the clunky forum search.

  • When I select a local adjustment, how do I make the new adjustment panel scroll with the default panels

    In lightroom, in the Develop module. When I select a local adjustment for example the brush tool or the gradient tool, the adjustment panel for the particular tool comes up in the sidebar where I can make adjustments to these tools (shown in figure below).
    Now my question is with this adjustment panel, it seems to be overlaying on top of the other default adjustments (e.g. the "Basic panel" - the exposure, contrast etc.) and when I scroll down on the other adjustments, the brush tool or the gradient tool adjustment panel is always on top and does not scroll with the default adjustments.
    I would like to change the setting of this so that the adjustment panel is part of the other default adjustments in the develop module and scrolls with them,
    I know this is possible because I've seen videos online where this is the case and my lightroom on another machine does this.
    Would anyone know how would I change the setting for this?

    It seems to depend on the actual size of the Lightroom window. Just messing around with both LRCC and LR5 on my MBP 15" retina, with a 1920 x 1200 external monitor, and both Lightroom versions will happily scroll the Adjustments panel as well as the others, but only if the size (i.e. height) of the Lightroom window is below a certain level. So on the retina screen, when the display is set to "Best for Retina", the adjustments panel scrolls with the others. But if I change to the native 2880 screen resolution, and expand the LR window to fit, then the adjustments panel does not scroll.
    Similarly if I move LR to the external monitor, same thing, i.e. adjustments panel does NOT scroll when the LR window in maximised, but it does scroll when I lower the height of the LR window (seems to be round about the 1600 pixel mark)
    It's the same using LR5, and the same on the Windows platform. I suspect it's somehow based on the height of the adjustments panel in relation to the overall height of the LR window, i.e. the adjustments panel does not scroll when there's sufficient overall space in the right-hand panel to allow sight of the one or more of the other tools below. 

  • No Local Adjustment folder in LR

    I recently got LR4. I tried to put some brushes in the local adjustment folder and there is none! SO what do I do now. I've got pictures to edit and correct and I need these brushes...now.
    Here is a screen shot of what is in my LR4 folder.   Thanks for any help.

    I'm using Lighroom 5 and none of the above options worked for me, either. Below is what made the folder appear for my system:
    What worked was I eventually Re-saved the presets  While on the Adjustment Brush tool, I chose the effect menu and chose "Save Current Settings as new preset" from the menu.

  • Wacom Tablet Pen Pressure stops working in Photoshop after using Lightroom Local Adjustment Brush

    Hi all,
    I am experiencing a problem with my Intuos Pro Medium (driver 6.3.9w3 on Windows 8.1)
    I am using Lighroom 5.6 and Photoshop CC 2014.
    I an get the pen pressure to work in Photoshop without any problem. However, if I go into Lightroom and use the Local Adjustment Brush and then transfer the photo into Photoshop (Right Click Edit In => Edit in Adobe Photoshop 2014 CC) then the pen pressure stops working in Photoshop.
    Really frustrating... The only workaround is to close both Photoshop and Lightroom, then reopen Photoshop, then usually the Pen pressure feature starts working again.
    Has anyone experienced this before or has any idea how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Guillaume

    Your tablet driver isn't reporting pressure correctly.
    The knockoff tablet drivers usually need to be revised for each new version of Photoshop (and we have no idea why).
    Contact your tablet maker to see if they have updated drivers to fix their bugs.

  • My Local Adjustment Brushes no longer recognized after LR 4.3 update

    After running 4.3 update, my local adjsutment brushes are no longer recognized and appearing in the Lightroom GUI.  They are all still located under 'Lightroom' folder --> 'Local Adjustment Brushes' folder (nothing has changed and I see all files are still there in Finder), but no matter how many times I've restarted LR, they are not showing up in the GUI.
    Please advise ASAP!!  Thank you

    It's not clear from your initial problem description, but are you talking about local adjustment presets that you have created yourself (i.e. user presets), or are you talking about the standard presets supplied by Lightroom (Burn, Dodge, Soften Skin, etc)?
    If it's the latter, go to Preferences>Presets Tab and click on "Restore Local Adjustment Presets".

  • Reduced range of adjustment tool options on some images

    Hi. I've noticed that some of my images (both raw - CR2 - and jpg) don't get the full range of options on the adjustment tools, while other images do. e.g. no temp settings, highlights, shadows, etc etc. Using Lightroom 5 and WIndows 7. I think it must have to do with some technical setting on the images but I wouldn't know where to start figuring out what those would be.
    My limited range on the adjustment brush:
    Thanks!

    Many users will wish to leave their images as edited in previous versions of LR. However the highlights and shadows sliders are more effective than the old fill light and recovery sliders and there may be instances where you wish to re-edit older photos using PV 2012. There is a small icon (click image below) under the histogram in Develop for images processed using PV 2010 and clicking it gives the option to update. Adobe recommends updating images on an individual basis to begin with but you can also select all filmstrip items. So you can use the camera calibration tab or simply click the histogram icon.
