Feature request... better podcast file mgmt...

In iPod preferences->Podcasts panel, "Keep:" pop-up menu, this podcast management feature is way too global for my liking. This feature is obviously meant to help control the number of podcasts in my library, but I'd like to be able to have this type of pop-up appear in my main Podcasts library window, so I can set the "Keep" settings differently for each Podcast if I wanted to. For instance, there are some Podcasts that I keep and listen to again and again. There are others that are "one-off's", and I will never listen to again. I'd like to have that little setting for each individual podcast. Maybe this pop-up menu could appear right beside the "Get", "Unsubscribe", and "Subscribe" buttons. Seems like a great spot for one.
As a companion feature, I'd like another screen for “podcast management“ when I’m pressing the “Select” button on my iPod. Maybe this could be the last one? On this screen, all the pop-up menu options from the iTunes pop-up could be there, with the current setting for the podcast I’m listening to is currently highlighted. This way, if there’s a “one-off” podcast that I’m listening to, and I really like it, I can set it to something else, like “Don’t delete”, or “Save this one”.
Please save me from the hunt-and-peck manual deletion method I have now since I have to save everything then delete out the ones I want by hand!

Sorry if I might be stating the obvious (but at least I was such a *dummy* once that I needed this explicitely):
In order to move the sequence of images per drag&drop in grid view you need to
Put the sort order in the bottom toolbar to "user order" (toggle visibility with letter T if not displayed)
Grab an image from within its thumbnail, not from its border-cell.
When you move around you see a vertical black thick line wandering in between images where you would be able to drop it
Put the images first into a collection in case they should be spread across multiple folders.
This is the reason why most often from a filter result you cannot re-arrange.
Still sometimes it does not work as I want, but can *be persuaded*, i.e. I repeat the same trial after first moving to another collection, then return back. I can't nail it down sufficiently to file a bug.
For an automated sorting according to filename (chosse that setting finally in toolbar) you could rename the photos in place, without exporting & re-importing. Just select them and hit <F2> to bring up the renaming dialog like possible during import.
+1 vote from me, as I am neither satisfied with the responsiveness of moving folders within LR e.g. from laptop hard disk to NAS.
Apart from that I try not to build much on my folder structure, just break them into manageable quantities and have a quick "diary-overview" by using naming convention "YYYY-MM-DD description of event" (pictures of up to 4 cameras go inside, unique filenames for Canons achieved by renaming during import). For all the rest I prefer to build (smart) collections.

Feature request: make podcast "Keep" preferences specific to each podcast

I subscribe to many different podcasts of different types for various reasons. With some podcasts I want to retain all episodes in an archive. With others I want to delete them as soon as I have listened to them. With others I might want to keep them for a week or month and then delete them even if I have not gotten around to listening to them. It would be very nice to be able to set a default preference for how long to keep podcasts in the iTunes preferences, just as can be done now, but to be able to override that default preference on a podcast by podcast basis. Please give us this ability to make podcast-specific decisions on how long to keep individual episodes. Thank you for considering this request.

Feature request: Better handling of accents

Hi everyone,
Since the "Provide iTunes feedback" menu item in iTunes itself only allows you to request music from the iTMS, I'm going to post my feature request for iTunes here, and hope that Apple picks up on it.
For most of the English-speaking world, accented characters (e.g.: é, à, â, ö, etc...) are never used, but for someone like me who speaks French or someone who has international music, it's an important part of using your computer.
So, here are two suggestions on how iTunes could handle accented characters more gracefully:
1. Don't be so aggressive in the auto-complete behaviour! iTunes will routinely disregard capitalisation and accents in order to "fuzzy-match" the auto-complete.
For instance, suppose I have an artist in my library named "Stephanie McKay", and I want to add another artist named "Stéphane Pompougnac". Here is how the auto-complete would look at six different stages (iTunes' suggestions are in square brakets):
1. St[ephanie McKay]
2. Ste[phanie McKay] iTunes replaces the é I just typed with a normal, unaccented e
3. Stephan[ie McKay]
4. Stephane iTunes doesn't have any suggestions to make at this point
5. Stephane Pompougnac I've typed in the complete name, and now I have to return to put the accent on the first e
6. Stéphane Pompougnac
In this case, the 'é' should've stuck as of step 2 and iTunes should've not had any suggestions to make since nothing else in my library starts with 'Sté'.
2. As far as searches go, the same is partially true, but with one caveat. If I'm searching for "Stéph", I should only get one result back, "Stéphane Pompougnac".
On the other hand, if I'm searching for "Steph", I think there's a possibility that I was too lazy to type the accent or I didn't know if/where there was an accent, and so I should get both results back: "Stéphane Pompougnac" and "Stephanie McKay".
The same is true of other accented characters (é, à, ö, ô, and even ç). I don't know how languages other than French and Spanish deal with characters that look alike (e.g. ø and o) or that represent the same thing, but if there is a relationship, I suppose the same behaviour should apply there.

Hi Brad,
Thanks a lot for pointing this out. We have verified this. We are looking into this issue and would try to incorporate the fix in future releases.

Feature request: better graphic acceleration in OSX guests under VMware Fusion

It is currently not possible to run standard Mac applications (such as iMovie, iDVD) on an OS X guest under VMware Fusion, due to the lack of graphic accleration.
Therefore I would like to post the following feature request:
please add support for Quartz Extreme / Core Image graphic acceleration in OS X guests under VMware Fusion.
Thank you!

Feature request: Better tool for organizing image files

Hi all,
I'm considering rearranging the directory structure of my photo library completely (for a number of reasons: new cameras, a new variety of tools on new PCs).
I would like to reorganize my photos into a year\month directory structure and that will basically spread all my image files into new locations.
I have searched quite a bit and the advices I have seen don't seem to work:
(1) Moving the files outside LR is fairly easy (using exiftool) but I cannot make LR link to the files automatically in their new locations. And doing it manually with "Locate file" or "Find missing folder" is not practical due to the large number of files and large number of new locations.
(2) Moving the files with LR tools is also not practical: Manually dragging the photos into the new directory structure will take forever, and the only automatic rename feature I know of is "Rename Files ..." cannot move the photos into new directories (it can, however, assign names from the file dates and other metadata).
Now my feature suggestion: Either make it possible for LR to automatically relink files that have been scattered into a new directory structure or - better yet - make it possible for LR to perform such auto-organize operations.
My mp3 manager (MediaMonkey) is a good example to follow: It can organize (move or copy) any number of music files into any directory structure built from the audio file's metadata (such as my standard audio directory structure: Music\<Artist>\<Album>\<Track#:2> - <Title>).
Interestingly, the LR "Rename file" function can almost do it already; it just cannot move the file into a new directory.
Or can this be done in a way I haven't discovered?

Feature request: better keyword management tool

I'm re-organizing my keywords and I think that LR needs some work in keyword management and DAM features.
I miss something like separate keyword management tool which would have two keyword lists, which would work a bit like spatial file management in Os X finder.
Easily manage keyword hierarchy. For example: browse list and and be able to easily select keywords (now it's OK) and drag and drop them to under a new keyword (almost ok, but sometimes cumbersome, if one wants to move keyword which is/are at the bottom of the long keyword list to keyword which is at the top of the list).

KKuja wrote:
...if one wants to move keyword which is/are at the bottom of the long keyword list to keyword which is at the top of the list.
Dang near impossible once you have a lot of keywords. A work-around for me has been to filter keywords first to reduce the number of keywords in the list, then do the drag 'n drop. At a minimum, a change to scroll the list when you're searching for a drop target at a variable rate that depends on mouse position, or even something simple like slowing it down when the alt key is pressed.
+1 vote - better keyword management.
Something else that may help you in the mean time: KeywordConsolidator.

Feature Request - better croping, focus patterns,focal length selections?

Tool specific Keyboard shortcuts: It would be helpful to have popup clues about keyboard shortcuts. For example, when using the crop tool, it is not obvious that typing an "X" will change the crop tool from a portrait to landscape mode or repeatedly pressing "O" will cycle through a number of grids. (Thank you Matt!)
Crop at other than "Fit" setting: Other crop tool request - allow crop to work on image at settings other than "fit" I may be able to get a more accurate crop at 1:2, etc. Otherwise I have to crop an image roughly, make a virtual copy and then crop again. Is there a better way to do this?
Show Focus Points on request: If you shoot wildlife with a long lens, a slight error in focus can ruin the shot. I review my bad shots to determine patterns of error in focusing. It would be helpful to see the focus points that were used in Lightroom, (e.g. killer whales move differently than an egret....) I assume this is stored in the metadata. I'd love to be able to do this in Lightroom.
Add Focal Length to filterable metadata fields: It would help to be able to see the various focal lengths used during a shoot, just like you can look at apertures (i.e. select folder for shoot, turn on filters, select aperture in the metadata and wallah! you can see the distribution of apertures used during a shoot.) This reminds you to mix it up and/or helps with lens selection. Is there a way to do this now?
My apologies if these features are available and I just haven't found them yet.

P.S. Thank you for the wonderful new features. I can't wait to convert my existing catalogs. I love the new import dialog. Now I can organize my backup copy in a logical fashion. When I'm in the field on a multi-day shoot, I don't want to risk reorganizing the backup. Now I don't need to. Enough has been said about noise reduction and better rendition. Thank you!!!

There is a corresponding idea at the feedback forum: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/add_image_direction_in_map_module
Anyone who wants this feature should also vote over there...
BTW: +1
Edit: P.S. I think it is generally a better idea to post feature wishes in the feedback forum (or comment on existing ones there) because it's regularly monitored by Adobe employees, while that is not necessarily the case for the user-to-user-forum here.

Feature Request: Better format options Please!

I've been using Adobe Story recently and think it's a great, competitive product that definitely rivals other products!
However, I do think there need to be a few more output options to increase compatibility with writers and producers who may not necessarily be using the latest software. In particular, .rtf and .fdr (Final Draft 7 or older) formats are not given as options to export and this would be very handy as I know plenty of writers who have not upgraded to Final Draft 8 and therefore cannot read the new .fdx extension on files.
Adding these two little things shouldn't be at all difficult and would allow much greater flexibility for users of Adobe Story to share material out without the need of the other party having to reformat things on their end.
Hopefully I'm not the only one looking for this feature update?

Hi Deepak
Thanks for your response. Don't take this the wrong way and please don't feel like I'm shooting the messenger here, but honestly speaking I think rtf *and* fdr format compatibility should be in your frontlog considering you are making a version 1 product that's trying to compete or at least compliment industry standard tools!
Having only fdx compatibility is like Office 2007/2010 only having .docx with no backwards compatibility for legacy formats - it renders the tool useless in the eyes of many potential customers. It great to push new and more open formatting standards but there must, must, must be legacy support too - I mean you already support import of rtf and fdr so it's nuts that it doesn't go out that way too!
I have found that having .txt and .pdf as a bridge for the older software tends to be an inefficient workaround. There are always occasional formatting errors that crop up due to the use of some type of special character that isn't translated properly in the conversion and therefore there is always a need to spend an additional 15-20 minutes re-checking entire scripts to make sure there are no problems before sharing the material to a colleague or client who either cannot afford to or hasn't bothered to upgrade to Final Draft 8 (or Adobe Story ).
That's just my two cents but I'm sure that many people would agree with me that this small update should be a priority to make AS (sorry, I've gone an abbreviated another one of your products - doh!) a more appealing alternative to the tools people may have been used to in the past.
Hope you take this pledge into serious consideration for your next upcoming update!
Thanks,
Kaush

Feature request: better tools for commenting and editing text

We currently use a comments-enabled Acrobat workflow with InDesign to track changes to our large catalog project. Was hoping to move our team over to CS Live, but currently the commenting tools are sub-par, and not accurate enough for extensive text editing. My request would be to imitate the text editing functionality of Acrobat:
In CS Live online:
- allow users to be able to copy selected text. (This is useful when a reviewer wants to be able to modify a sentence or paragraph. It's a headache now to have to retype the sentence prior to making modifications)
- Ability to highlight text and hit "delete" to mark text as deleted, or highlight and type over to indicate replaced text
- Ability to click to insert text, and have the comment appear with the inserted text designation (little blue carat like in Acrobat)
- ability to highlight a section of text
In InDesign:
- ability to copy the text in a comment and NOT copy all the other extraneous meta data. (Currently, if you click "copy text", it will copy the comment along with all the details about the comment. For example, "- Amy Stewart [10.06.11 at 12:56 PM]"
- ability to see in InDesign the EXACT part of the text that needs to be modified. Right now, the red box outlines the general area. The CS Review panel shows a tiny thumbnail with black highlight over the area of text that needs to be changed, but unfortunately, there's no way to zoom in on it, so you're stuck having to toggle between InDesign and the online review, where it's possible to zoom. (This diminishes the utility of the CS Review panel.)
If you were able to incoroprate all the commenting functionality of Acrobat, I think you'll have a winner. But right now, we're going to have to stick with Acrobat as it's the only way to easily modify text.

Sorry if I might be stating the obvious (but at least I was such a *dummy* once that I needed this explicitely):

Feature request: open the file I clicked, even if the terms need to be accepted

Three times today I've gone to open a file and the 'New Terms' window opened up. Each time I clicked it and the program opened, though without my file being open. I then have to go back, find the file and open it again. I wouldn't normally complain, but this happens a LOT, as Adobe programs update constantly. Or something.
When I click a file, i want it to open, not to deal with adobe's admin needs. I'm trying to get things done and am already paying lots of money to do so.
Please add some code to continue opening files even after I deal with your terms and conditions requests.

Hello,
i assume that you have otf output which you convert to PDF. If this is the case then one solution in the multiple document print situation is the following.
Before converting documents from otf to pdf concatenate all otf into on table. Then convert everything at once into one big PDF file. Now the enduser needs only open one pdf file and print this out. In my solution i even do not write files. Instead i use RFC to move pdf data and then append the pdf to the output using cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response.
The complete docu is available in Display Smartform Pdf output in ABAP Webdynpro application

Feature request: support THM files

As title suggest, I would like PSE11 and above to support *.thm files. Those files come along with video files and contain exif data.

Just to verify here, you can no longer create a Photoshop.com account, those services are being discontinued.
To post on the Feedback site (feedback.photoshop.com) you do not need a Photoshop.com account. You should be creating a GetSatisfaction account (the web site that actually hosts the feedback section of the Photoshop.com web site).
To do this, once on Feedback.Photoshop.com:
1. Click on "Sign in" in the upper right corner of the page.
2. Click "Click here if you already have a Get Satisfaction account" at the bottom of the dialog window that appears.
3. Click "Or, create a new Get Satisfaction account..." in the new dialog window that appears.
4. Enter the requested information (name, email, etc) and click "Sign up"

Feature Request - Play .WAV files in Bridge Messages

I just found an interesting feature,
My Corporate Voicemail is emailed to me in .WAV files. I can play them on my 9550 but the Bridge Messages on the PB report unsupported file type.
I'm a little surprised by this but hope it is just an update away...

i would like to see this as well. i too have a 9550 and *.wav files sent to me from my office voicemail.

Feature Request: Better dimensional meta data displayed

Aside from every other problem with how Bridge lets the user display, sort and interact with meta data (aside from the actual metadata palette), it would be way more useful to have the Dimension meta data displayed under an image shown in 'real world' dimensions.
For example: I'm looking at my 'final images' that have been converted to CMYK, and sized for delivery. At this point Pixel Dimensions are pretty useless. What I really want to do is quickly scan my images, seeing Inches (or CM) with a PPI. My clients never ask for pixel dimensions (unless we are talking about the web, which we aren't) - they ask for 8.76" x 5.34" at 266ppi. It would just be nice to use bridge to double check the image sizes before delivery.
thks
andy

Thanks for you feedback. You wish has been granted (dimensions can now be displayed in pixels, inches or centimeters. Go to Preferences > Thumbnails to select which dimension to display below the thumbnail, or Preferences > Metadata to customize the metadata pane).

[Feature Request] Better support for new buttons in JUNavigationBar

In my project I use a home made sub-class of JUNavigationBar, which contains some new functionality apart from a new button as well. This button allows me to refresh the currently selected row.
However, since I added this button though a simple this.add(), some of the functionality in JUNavigationBar may get confused.
For example, when I have removed some of the standard buttons but left my own button in place (setHasXXX()), the component index (calculated in JToolBar) and the array index for the buttons in JUNavigationBar may not match. This occasionally causes an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
In short, what I'm asking for, is a better way to manage buttons on JUNavigationBar. Even making the array of buttons and related methods and such protected in stead of private (so that my sub-class could handle it) would be a good start.

Hi Arno,
I had a similar issue with trying to create a Nav bar with dynamic content. My solution was to leave all the standard buttons in place and to use setVisible(x) to make them appear or not as required.
BTW have you noticed that rollover behaviour isn't consistant ie works for FIRST/LAST etc but not for FIND/QUERY.
Regards
Andy

Feature request - Export Draw files from Creative Cloud to Illustrator

It's really annoying that you can't export Draw files from assets.adobe.com to Illustrator CC, that you have to do this from your iPad. If my battery is flat, or I have left my iPad somewhere I can only export REALLY crappy low res jpgs or pngs. Coupled with the recent issues the Send to Illustrator function has suffered it's annoying that work is being locked up in this way. I understand that it's important for Adobe to protect their products, but these restrictions are making workflows really hard work. It would be ideal if we could access the mobile files using the Place tool in inDesign etc too so we could drop a drawing file in to a document in the same way we can a regular image or ai/psd file

This is a bug. Will update this thread once it is fixed.
