Develop Mode: Why Do Some Controls Do Nothing

I recently edited a 150 photos. I notice that certain controls in develop mode have no impact when I make adjustments. A good example is Sharpening. There are no changes to the Histogram (you can tell by the motion) or in the image swatch shown above Sharpening. Changes to chromatic aberration and noise reduction also have no impact. Is this a function of the camera, RAW files, or what? This isn't a complaint. I am just curious whether my experience is universal (which I doubt because why would Lightroom have the controls) or a result of my camera, lens, camera setting, or subject matter choices.
Thanks

You need to be view an image at 100% pixel view or higher to see the effects
of the adjustments you listed. This is by design.

Why are some control backgrounds white and some gray?

I put together a vi and some of the controls have a white background, some have gray, and the increment/decrement buttons vary. How can I make them look alike, preferably white backgrounds?

Yes, I tried that, it's how I got from the square arrows to the rounded arrows. But the background is still gray.
I'm pretty sure that is by design - the idea is that even if you change to a modern control, you don't lose your defined colors.
The easiest way to change this is to use the eye drip tool which gets the colors from whatever you click on and use that to color the new numeric using the paint tool. The quickest way is changing to the paint tool (shift+right click or a couple of tab clicks if you don't have the tool palette visible) and then hold Ctrl to get the eye drip tool.

Developer Mode password lock screen bug

My dad and I just stumbled upon this bug that we wanted to let the community know about, should anyone run into a similar issue. Feel free to submit it as a ticket to the BB10/QNX development team as well.
I put my dad's Z10 into Developer Mode to do some testing, and used a basic 4 digit password that I use all the time. Once finished I turned off developer mode and turned off his screen using the lock button.
When he turned his phone back on, he was not able to log in using his own password. So we tried the developer mode password that I had used, and it also didn't work. He tried every possible password he's ever used, and one by one we watch as the password attempts countdown climbed.
At 6/10 we did a battery pull in the hopes it would start the counter over again. No such luck, it booted back up to 6/10. However, the counting then stopped. Password after password we entered, both repeats and new ones, it stayed at 6/10. We gave up and typed in "blackberry" to wipe it, but it didn't respond either. Connecting it to Link was also unsuccessful for a wipe, it was as if the phone was brain dead.
So in one last ditch effort we did a hard reset using the top and bottom volume rocker, and when the phone booted up he tried his lock screen password once more..... boom 7/10.... so then we tried my temporary development mode password and..... VOILA, we got into the phone.
Shortly before I enabled developer mode the phone was updated to 10.2.1.

It's hard to say if this is an actual bug or not or perhaps you just inadvertently changing the password to the developer one without realising, causing the several missed attempts including a possible mistyped developer password.
If you can reproduce this let us know.

I am an absolute newcomer to Lightroom. I have downloaded images from camera (OMD EM1) and divided them into folders. Some folders work ok in Develop mode. With other folders I get the words "This file could not be found". What should I do

As an absolute newcomer to Lightroom 5 I have downloaded images direct from camera (IOlympus EM-1) and divided them into folders. When I go into Develop mode, some folders can be developed ok , but with images from two other folders I get the message "This file could not be found". What should I do?

may i suggest opening the files in Olymous Viewer 3 and exporting them (you can do some editing there if you wish or not) asTIFF files. After that you can import the new files into LR. LR seems to like tiiff more than .orf files
The advantage to using OV3 is that it seems to do a much better job converting RAW EM1 files. Colors are more accurate ( my red flower pot turned orange when loaded directly into lightroom)
. The tiff files just LOOK better in LR after the conversion . there is a youtube on this subject and when i tried it myself i was impressed

Why "previous" box and sometimes "sync" box in develop mode.

In Lightroom 4 develop mode, I have noticed that at the bottom of the righthand column there is a button, sometimes marked "sync" and at others marked "previous". It seems to change randomly between the two and I don't know why. I prefer it to be "previous". Can anyone explain why it changes and what I can do to return it to "previous" if it has changed to "sync"?
Thanks.

Hello,
It changes to Sync when you have more than one image selected.

Why are my processed images now sharper in the Library mode than in Develop mode (LR5)?

In LR 5. Recently I noticed my processed images are sharper in the Library mode than in the Develop mode. This makes doing adjustments difficult because I can't really tell the effect of the adjustments.
PC, i7, 24GB RAM.
I've tried purging the Camera Raw cache. It's been suggested to purge the Preview cache but I cannot find the Preview cache file. It's also been suggested to clear the Preferences but those file don't show up in a search either even though my PC search is set up to show hidden files and folders.
Any solutions?

Images can be different between the camera-rendered preview you see before Import and the default Adobe rendering, but after import the thumbnail in the LR grid view shouldn’t be a different tone than the image in the main area. Is that what you’re saying you’re seeing?
Can you show us a screenshot with both the thumbnail filmstrip and the central area visible as well as the histogram?

Why is the image not as sharp in library mode then it is in develop mode?

and the image i email reflects the library image/version (less sharp) not the develop mode image/version.

I just open my MBP before plugging up the TB display. Then after the TB comes on, I close the MBP back into clamshell mode. Works better for me that way.
Does that work for you as well?

Cannot control size of adjustment brush in Lightroom 5 Develop mode

Whenever I click on the adjustment brush tool in Develop mode, its circle of influence automatically expands to the maximum diameter.
Even when I try to contain the dimensions of the circle via the LR5's size slider or left bracket key, the adjustment brush diameter remains at the max diameter.
Please advise.

This problem is caused by changing the cursor size in the ACCESSIBILITY settings in your OS. Here is a screen shot from the Mac but Windows has similar settings. I reported this in Lightroom 2 or 3 and it is STILL not fixed. (Adobe's bug fixing rate to me is pretty dismal) If you change your system cursor to anything except "Normal" you will get this behavior as Lightroom doesn't account for the system preferences. I would like to make my cursor bigger but this prevents it.

I havent been working in any seeded applications lately . I am working on some other custom application and have depolyed it on server and this error did not occur untill yesterday.
There is a profile option : FND: Developer Mode which is set to nothing on server.
Also I have enabled developer mode to true in zone.properties
could any of this be a problem ?
Thanks

A few doubts :
1. How is it different to set prof. opt. from Func Admin to setting it from Sys Admin ?
2. Do I need apache bounce after this ?
3. I had not touched these p/os and the values for site/user were null from before, so why do I see the error and others do not ?
4. Apart from all the error I posted in this thread I also get some error when I launch configurator from my custom webpage -
error is like this :
The OA passivation framework coding standard has been violated. The view object with full name, CZApplicationModule.TreeViewUsage, is not properly prepared for row insertion. Either setMaxFetchSize(0) or executeQuery() (or any equivalent method that ends up executing the view object query) must be called on the view object before new rows are inserted. For a detail view object in a master - detail relationship, executeQuery() (or any equivalent method that ends up executing the view object query) must be called instead of setMaxFetchSize(0) on the detail view object before new rows are inserted into the detail view object. setMaxFetchSize(0) call on the detail view object could cause a number of adverse effects.

AT10-a-104 : Developer mode

I just called the US support team to get information form them about my brand new AT10-a-104 tablet. I spoke to 5 different people and all of them told me that Android is not a Linux Operating System. It appears that there is a serious training issue with the US support team. I suspect it is across all of the Toshiba support teams too.
My reason for calling the US support team is because I tried to find information about enabling Developer Mode on the device. Specifically I wanted to connect via adb to the device from my Linux and Mac computers. Funnily enough my Linux computer is actually a Toshiba Tecra M5 and I also happen to use it for some pretty advanced Android software and Firmware development. It seemed strange to me that there was not a developer mode for the device as I have come to expect a high standard from my experience with the Toshiba Tecra M5. Still going strong after several years of constant use.
Anyway while I was waiting for the US support team to answer the phone while also patiently waiting to be connected with someone in their team who knew anything at all about software deveopment or pretty much any general information about Linux I actually found the answer over on the Thrive forums website.
Tap Settings->About tablet->Build Number 7 times to unlock Developer mode in the Settings menu. This is a neat trick but it really should be made more obvious for serious professional developers who are interested in programming for the range of Toshiba Android Tablets. Why not put up a webpage specifically with that information. At least you could add it to the Windows driver download page. for those of us who do not use Microsoft products.
http://support.toshiba.com/sscontent?docId=4001814
The company I work for is in the position to purchase 20 - 50k of these devices and if I wasn't able to get developer mode working it would have been a show stopper. We are still unsure because of the lack of other developer tools. Even Archos and Allwinnner provide a more complete Development toolset. At the very least it would be good to have an official Android Developer Firmware edition with the disclaimer that warranty would be void after installation.
Check out the Archos Tools if you want a good example of a fairly reasonable middle ground to keep the legal types from fraking out while also making your hardware accessible to industrial scale customers.
Even better is to offer a link for purchasing the full Android SDK for a reasonable price. Usually between $2k - $5k depending on the sales person. That would be a real deal sweatener for us and I'm sure other companies would be interested in that option too.
BTW, you really should pay someone to respond more regularly on thie forums. It ssems like no one from Toshiba is monitoring the Tablet forums at all. That is not a good look when combined with the lack of training on display with your US support team. Definitely not leading innovation when it comes to support and documentation of the Android devices.

Unfortunately...another Android firmware version cannot be installed at your own hand.
The update can be done only via Toshiba Service Station. Of course if available.

How can I REPLACE original RAW files with JPG's and keep my 'Develop mode' edits?

An image describing my problem:
http://i.imgur.com/hcqMYkv.jpg
(Lightroom 5)
'edits' = Edits made in develop mode.
'CR2' = My RAW image file format.
I have existing CR2's with edits for them saved in Lightroom.
I want to replace the CR2's with JPG's, and do nothing else. I want those JPG's to inherit the CR2's edits, but I DO NOT want the edits to be permanently applied to the image.
If I export the CR2's (which have edits) to JPG's, the edits will be permanently applied to them. I do not want this.
If I export the CR2's to JPG's without the edits, I have no way of getting the edits back and will have to redo the work if I use that photo again.
Any solutions? I've been trying for a while and have no idea how to do this.
Q: Why not keep the CR2's?
A: I am uploading these files to an online host (S3) as my primary storage method and uploading CR2's takes way too long with my internet speeds. Furthermore, online storage costs money.
Q: Why not shoot with JPGs instead of shooting raw?
A: I do my initial edits with the raw files and then archive them as JPG's to save storage space. They won't be raw anymore if I apply future edits, but I still have the option of retouching them from the 'original' state and still have my old edits preserved.

Probably the best thing for you to do is simply use lossy DNG format (e.g. export as, or convert to..): raw data is re-formatted with jpeg compression (full-rez or reduced-rez), but all raw settings apply.
If you insist on trying to have a true jpeg file with (mostly) raw settings, then:
The simplest way I can think of to do it without a script or plugin:
* Reset the raw photo (consider preserving things that don't translate well, like profile-based lens corrections and white balance).
* Export jpeg
* Un-reset the image (e.g. using edit history or pre-reset snapshot).
* Sync settings from raw to jpeg (note: omit settings that don't transfer well, or that were not reset..).
* Optionally: Delete raw
To automate/streamline would require a script or plugin.

I use lightroom with the soft proofing feature for my printing. I used to make a copy proof, but all of the sudden something changed, and even if I'm on the copy in the developing mode it prints the original. Also, If i chose a file that was already in light room to print, even though I have the chosen file up in the developing mode, it will instead print the most recent file that I added to lightroom. If found a way to work around these problems, (check make this the copy in the soft proofing, and copy my settings and delete and reload the old files) but it's a slight hassle and it didn't use to do this. Not sure why it changed. Could I have accidentally changed a setting?

Develop Mode: Right panel missing

I have moved from Library to Develop mode and selected an image but the right panel is totally absent. Clicking on the right panel arrow does nothing. This is a first for me. Help appreciated; I suspect it is something very simple.

I tried all of the above with no result. I should have tried rebooting before I asked but after shutting down and restarting I again came up empty. This time, however, clicking on the right arrow resurrected the missing panel. Never happened before and I have no idea why it did now but it is corrected. Thanks for the prompt response.

Developer Mode Error: Stale Data -- Master Detail OAF Page

Dear Members,
I have created a simple master detail OAF Page by following the below steps:-
1/ Created a MasterEO
2/ Created a DetailEO
3/ Created a MasterDetailAO
4/ Created a MasterVO based on MasterEO
5/ Created a DetailVO based on DetailEO
6/ Created a MasterDetailVL (view link) based on MasterDetailAO
7/ Created an AM
7/ Attached the MasterVO and MasterDetailVL to the AM
8/ Created a simple Master Detail Page in which user can enter the master and detail records. After entering the details user can click on the save button.
Code in AM_
public void createHeader()
+{+
OAViewObject vo = getMasterVO1();
if (vo.getFetchedRowCount() == 0)
+{+
vo.setMaxFetchSize(0);
+}+
Row row = vo.createRow();
vo.insertRow(row);
row.setNewRowState(Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);

am.invokeMethod("createLines");
I am facing the below error when trying to save the master detail records in the respective OAF Page_
Developer Mode Error: Stale Data_
The requested page contains stale data. This error could have been caused through the use of the browser's navigation buttons (the browser Back button, for example). If the browser's navigation buttons were not used, this error could have been caused by coding mistakes in application code. Please check Supporting the Browser Back Button developer guide - View Object Primary Key Comparison section to review the primary causes of this error and correct the coding mistakes.
Cause:
The number of displayed records, 1, exceeds the actual number of records, 0, in view object AstfAM.DetailVO1. Some of the displayed records may have been deleted.
To proceed, please select the Home link at the top of the application page to return to the main menu. Then, access this page again using the application's navigation controls (menu, links, and so on) instead of using the browser's navigation controls like Back and Forward.
I request the members to help me in resolving the above error.
Many thanks in advance.

R4S.

Hi user11991972,
I just faced the same issue and I managed to fixed it using this thread:
Developer Mode Error: Stale Data
In my case, I amended the "Change indicator" checkbox on some of EO attributes.
One of the master attributes was updated by the AM from the detail page, but when navigating back, the master page was not refreshed due to a customer requirement.
But I wonder if it could be of any help in your case...
Regards,
Olivier
