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.

Any comment?

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.

Quick Develop Panel - LR 3.2 - (where is it?)

As I learn about LR3 and all the things that the Develop Module can do, I also learned that there is something called the Quick Develop Panel in the Library Module, located beneath the Histogram Panel. The only problem is that I don't seem to be able to find it - it's as if it wan't there, because there is nothing named Quick Develop with an arrow beside it, like all the other panels, that I can click on to open it, or close it, as the case may be. I am obviously missing something, or maybe more than something. Is there something I have to initiate or open from one of the Menu items to enable this panel? Any insight that anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hal, thank you so much - the things they don't tell you sometimes in these books would sometimes fill a book.

Yes Lee, I was aware of this, but I often forget about this stuff in the heat of my confusion. Thanks for reminding me.

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.

Library Module - Quick Develop Panel

Hi,
I was really hoping that the Quick Develop panel in the Library Module which I sometimes use if there are minor touchups needed to a photo would have been redesigned to more closely resemble and work like the Basic panel in the Develop Module. Certainly sliders instead of those arrow buttons would be a very useful change.
I'm pretty sure that this has been a popular enhancement request. Does anyone know why this wans't changed?
Thanks,
Eli

Quick Develop Panel Missing

I'm using LR2.4 on both MacPro and a MacBook Pro. On the latter my quick develop panel is just not there! (See screenshot below).
It's not closed (I usually work with auto close on my notebook), but not teher at all. Any ideas how to reinstate it?
Cheers

Thanks to you both. Thought I knew LR pretty well, but that's a new one.
Cheers

Can't find Quick time control panel to enter in Quick time PRO registration

I just bought Quicktime Pro 7. I installed Quicktime 7 and can't find the quick time 7 control panel. The only way to download quicktime Pro is if I can access the Qucktime control panel???? How do I locate the quicktime control panel if it is not actually located in MY Control panel?? I'm confused.

David's referring to the Preferences in QuickTime Player, just so it's clear.

How can I get the QUICK DEVELOP panel to appear when editing video in Lightroom 4

When editing video, the only panel that appears at right hand side is the the one silimar to the developing of still shots. But of course, it is greyed out, thus preventing its use when editing video.

Lee Jay for USA president.
Thanks a lot Jay. Right clicking on a panel brought up QUICK DEVELOP. I've searched through books galore and none mention this.

How can I find my custom panel in CS5 using java script

-I made an empty panel using Adobe Configurator 2 and then exported it to /Panels folder.
-My custom panel is now in photoshop and works.
-I added a simple code to onPanelInit():
function onPanelInit()
    var myWindow = new Window ("dialog");
    var myMessage = myWindow.add ("statictext");
    myMessage.text = "Hello, world!";
    myWindow.show ( );
so far so good.
Now instead of creating a new window like I did above, I want to use the new custom panel and add a text to it.
The problem is, how do I do that in java? Where can I find the panel that I should assign the text to?
I know that you can add the text in Configurator, or you can edit the .xml file and add the button there, but my
plan is to create a panel where i can add and remove buttons dynamically and that's why I have to do that in java.
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Petri J

Use Runtime.exec() to run a OS specific command which retrieves OS specific info.
Or use JNI to access a OS specific API which returns the info you want.

Can't find the BASIC panel to edit photos.

I'm using LR5. Somehow my BASIC panel has disappeared in the DEVELOP module. The only way I can make adjustments now in brightness, etc is using the Tone Curve. How can I get my BASIC panel back?
Thanks

That did it! Thanks! I think I was so tired one night when I was working in this that I must've let 2 fingers touch my trackpad. I didn't even know that was one way to right-click on a mac! I've had this computer for almost 3 years and just found this out!! I had accidentally right-clicked the panel off.

Can't find touchpad control panel

Hi,
I got a new T500 (windows vista) with:
UltraNav (TrackPoint and TouchPad) with Fingerprint Reader
I want the touch pad to scroll (light grey lines on touch pad indicate that this ought to be possible).
Problem is, i can't find any configuration options anywhere - for either the touchpad or the trackpoint. If i go into the mouse control panel, the only device listed is PS/2 compatible mouse.
What to do?

Out of interest, did you reinstall the UltraNav Utility as well as the driver?
