LR5: Moving develop module sliders blurs the image for a moment

I'm evaluating Lightroom 5 during the 30 day trial and it's all cool except for this one big annoyance that I noticed immediately when trying to work on an image in Develop module. As stated in the title, moving any slider (exposure, highlights, noise reduction, etc.) causes the image to go very blurry for the duration of the slider movement. It goes immediately back to being sharp as soon as I stop moving the slider. This is super annoying, feels as though my eyes are going bad.
What's interesting is that the problem doesn't show up when I'm adjusting the Tone Curve directly, but it will get triggered if I'll expand and use the sliders underneath. So looks like a bug that only applies to sliders.
This doesn't happen at all in Lightroom 4.4, which I still have installed and can compare side-by-side.
As for the hardware, I'm using the 2013 Macbook Air with 1.3 GHz i5 CPU and 8 GB of RAM. The OS X version is 10.8.4 with all latest upgrades installed.
I've already tried optimizing the catalog, giving it more space (currently at 3 GB) and purging it. I'm not using Smart Previews, although I've turned them on for a moment to see if the problem persists with them on - it does. I've also re-rendered the 1:1 preview for the specific image I've been trying it on. Btw, the file is a NEF from Nikon D300 and I'm using the 2012 process (as was the case with LR4). Not sure what else might be relevant here.

If this is indeed intentional, is there any way to turn it off? I would much rather it had taken a bit longer to update the photo, than to have the image switch to this "pixel doubled" version.
Also, this doesn't happen at all in LR 4.4 on the same machine. However, if it indeed isn't a bug, this probably means LR5 requires more resources to process a photo than 4.4. This would be somewhat disappointing, given that LR5 was supposed to be faster than its predecessor.

  • In the develop module, sliders jump about when clicked

    In the develop module, sliders jump about when I try to click on them.
    This happens after I re-size the window by dragging to the left in order to make the sliders longer. Any ideas on How to stop the sliders from misbehaving?

    I am seeing the same problem. Closing and re-opening LR reduces the problem, but there is still a slight (~0.05) change in the value when the slider is clicked on. More disturbing, resizing the right panel brings the problem back, with very large jumps. For example, my Exposure value changed +5 units when I clicked on the slider after widening the panel.

  • Develop module sliders in LR 4.4

    Develop module sliders changed to grey from their previous colors and gradients. Any way to change back?

    Yes, I just upgraded to OSX Mavericks this morning. It's not really a huge deal, but it does slow down my workflow a little.

  • How can we change the  color of the image for product display for different

    Hi All,
    How can we change the  color of the image for product display for different colors, to be displayed on site.

    Hi priya,
    The requirement that you have stated is not a standard feature in ISA CRM. In order to do the same, you will need to modify the standard ISA code in Java. A common path for the solution would be as follows:
    1. Colours
        a. Maintain a text type for Color under the object - PCAT_ITM in Customizing.
        b. Modify the standard search of ISA to search within your new text type as well. (In standard it only searches in Description.
       c. Maintain all shirts colour data in the new type created in step a.
       d. Your requirement will be done!
    2. Price
      a. Use list prices for your shop and assign the appropriate condition type, acces in your catalog.
      b. Modify the standard search of ISA to search on the list prices as well.
      c. This too will be done!
    3. Accessories - This is very tricky, and will require some exploration. However, here's my opinion,
    a. Search for the standard function module, which will return the accessories when provided the product as an input.
    b. Modify this function module according to your requirement and ensure that it can be accessed remotely.
    c. Modify the JSP as in steps 1b and 2b above to call this new remote-enabled function module.
    d. Now you're done!!
    The ISA modification part is not so simple, you need a really good guy like "Sateesh Chandra" who'll be able to handle your requirements. This is all I could manage, hope it is some help to you!
    Thanks & Regards,
    Nelson.

  • Function module to determine the date for the nth weekday of the mth month

    Is there a function module which determines the date for the mth weekday of the nth month in the pth year.
    For instance, if I input 2nd thursday of the 4th month in 2008, it should return me, 04/10/2008  (MM/DD/YYYY).
    Thanks and Best Regards,

    Hi Ravi,
    Hadn't been able to work on this lately...You solution was quite close, but did not work for a few scenarios....I tweaked the logic a bit to take care of them as well...
    So here goes the code:
    ================================================
      DATA first_day_of_month TYPE datum.
      DATA day TYPE p.
      CONCATENATE year month '01' INTO first_day_of_month.
      CALL FUNCTION 'DAY_IN_WEEK'
        EXPORTING
          datum = first_day_of_month
        IMPORTING
          wotnr = day.
      DATA day_number TYPE numc2.
      IF day = weekday.
        IF recur = 1.
          DATA ls_date(10) TYPE c.
          CONCATENATE month '/01/' year INTO ls_date.
          CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL'
            EXPORTING
              date_external                  = ls_date
           IMPORTING
             date_internal                  = date.
        ELSE.
          day_number =  ( ( recur - 1 ) * 7 )  + 1.
        ENDIF.
      ELSEIF day < weekday.
        day_number = ( ( recur - 1 ) * 7 ) + ( weekday - day ) + 1.
      ELSE.
        day_number = ( ( recur - 1 ) * 7 ) + ( 7 - day ) + weekday + 1.
      ENDIF.
      IF date IS INITIAL.
        CONCATENATE year month day_number INTO date.
      ENDIF.
    ====================================
    There still could be some loopholes in this....am not sure....but it sure did seem to work for a couple of random checks that I performed.
    Brownie points to you for giving me a direction.
    Thanks,
    Puja.

  • Bug?  In LR5 Mac, Develop module, option+slider undocks right panel!

    Holding down option key (LR5 Mac) with slider causes entire right panel to undock
    In the Develop module, I used to be able to hold down the option key while adjusting a slider, giving some extra features in the panel section.  (To see the extent of masking in the Detail panel group, in white/black, for example)
    Now, the entire panel undocks and I can't slide the slider, instead the panel moves around in th LR5 workspace. While I am unintentionally moving the panel, there is a blue border that appears around the panel.  See the screenshot.  Has anyone had this issue, and if so, were you able to fix it?

    In develop module, Details panel group (sharpening), I hold down option key and attempt to move any of the sliders.  Instead of the view changing as described in this page: http://laurashoe.com/2012/11/26/develop-module-secret-lightroom-powers-revealed-the-altopt ion-key/, the whole panel becomes undocked and moves in the LR workspace.
    While its moving, there is a blue border around the panel window (as I show in my screenshot). 
    The slider does not move, the whole panel becomes undocked. In the screenshot, I was attempting to slide the Sharpening/Detail slider.
    I am working with OS Mavericks, LR 5.3

  • Develop module sliders for overall exposure, contrast, saturation etc. are gone.

    The Develop module used to have sliders for overall exposure, contrast, saturation as well as highlights, whites, blacks, shadows, vibrance, clarity etc. Now these functions are only to be found in Library Quick Develop as left/right buttons. I miss the sliders in Develop. There are similar sliders there, but only relating to specific colors, not the overall image. How do I get the sliders back?

    Right-click (Ctrl-click on Mac) on any panel group tab e.g Detail, Lens Correction etc and make sure all are checked (see image below).

  • LR5.4 Book module losing connection to images

    When I switch from one book to another and then back to the first, the images in the first book are no longer connected to the pages. However, the images still show up in the filmstrip.
    Can currently reproduce on my system for the given book. Any suggestions?
    Not sure if this is relevant. The images in the first book are master images. The images in the second book are virtual copies of the same images.
    This did not happen at first, but only seemed to happen part way into working with the books.

    The error for "The network connection was lost" is actually a feature put into InDesign by design. It's a protection mechanism that occurs when InDesign is unable to write to the file in question for a various number of reasons. By shutting down we do our best to preserve your file integrity through the restore function. If we didn't shut the process down you would run the risk of damaging your files with bad write data.
    It can be found to occur for a variety of reasons ranging from switch issues in corporate environments to loose cables. No amount of patching at this time will resolve it, it's normally something that will have to be investigated and resolved on the networking side of things.
    Our engineers are looking into options to help this behavior in the future by adding a delay and having InDesign recheck before going through with the shutdown as an update to the software but for the most part this is something that has to be resolved on the networking side.

  • I own LR and Develop module has been disabled---asking for me to renew membership??

    I purchased Lightroom in 2013 (not Creative Cloud subscription). I recently purchased a new computer and downloaded LR to that one. I have LR registered under my Adobe ID and its listed under "products" that I own, I'm signed into LR with my Adobe ID on my desktop. When I downloaded the program, I used my key I received when I purchased the program to get it up and running. Today I tried going into the Develop module and it says that it has been disabled and to renew my membership to get access to the Develop module again. I do not have the CC subscription...I own it. SOOO, I've been searching and trying to follow Adobe troubleshooting for a few hours and now I've decided to see if I can just get the answer here. Where can I input my key in the program on the desktop or get it to see that I OWN the program and do not need to purchase the membership? On my desktop CC icon, it says that my "trial version" has expired.
    Thanks in advance!

    LR Develop module shows "Disabled.Please renew your membership".You can reinstall the creative cloud application from the below link and then sign in with your Adobe ID(email address registered with Adobe)

  • How can I change the images for af:statusIndicator?

    The default icons (busy and not busy) have a deep blue background which is different from our chosen background color for the application.
    As per the ADF documentation for Web development Section 16.6:
    "... you can use skins to change the actual image files used in the component."
    Is there any code example on how to change the image file for af:statusIndicator?

  • Don't want new tiff files saved in my catologue if I'm only using the image for a composite.

    When editing in Photoshop CS4 from LR3, the new tif will not appear in the catalogue unless I save it in PS. In LR4 it saves a new tiff in my catalogue regardless if I save the edited image in PS or not. I have a cloud library I use often and do not want new files saved in my LR catologue if I'm only using the opened image for compositing. Can anyone help me figure out how to change the workflow to be like LR3?

    i think adobe should support new cameras for older CS versions too.
    in the end PS is expensive enough to justifie a better support.
    How far back would you go? One version? Three? Where should the line be drawn? Adobe draws the line at the currently shipping version...it's now CS5 and shortly it will be CS6.
    Even if Adobe were to do this, you do realize that trying to put new plug-ins into older software is really tough. For example on the Mac, Photoshop CS5 requires that the plug-in be written in Apple's Cocoa API. Camera Raw 5 required a major update to be able to run in Cocoa...retrofitting Camera Raw 5 to run in a PPC platform (supported by CS3/CS4 but not supported by CS5) would be difficult–a lot of work for zero return. As a result of the engineering challenges of backwards compatibility Adobe has the policy of only updating currently shipping software to current customers. Truth be told, if you don't have the most recent version, you are not a current customer...you are a former customer. Having Adobe spend R&D engineering backwards compatibility to support former customers would take resources away from supporting current customers. As a current customer, I wouldn't like that.
    But it's all a moot point because I don't see any evidence that Adobe is going to change this policy for backwards compatibility. In fact, going forward, Adobe is already announced the change to Photoshop upgrade rules allowing only the most recent version to be upgraded to the new version. Because of the reaction that only CS5/5.5 could upgrade to CS6, Adobe blinked and now has given a grace period till the end of 2012 for CS3 & CS4 users to upgrade to CS6.
    Again many people don't like this, but as a pro user of Photoshop, I always upgrade anyway so it has no impact on me. Yes, it will bite some people and I can have sympathy, but again, you always have the free DNG Converter to use in the case you need new camera support. And hey, the new cameras come with software to process their raw files, right?
