Reimport XMP automatically feature request

I continue to use the latest version of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) whose editing controls are basically the same as the LR develop module, but with a UI I dramatically prefer (that's another topic). But I use LR for other reasons. I'm finding it a big nuisance to manually use the "Import XMP" feature every time I want to sync LR's XMP data (for my DNG edits) with edits I made with ACR (which are totally compatible and work correctly AFAIK).
What I want is an preference option, similar to the option to automatically export XMP data for edits in LR, to automatically import XMP data whenever LR notices a modification date change on the referenced file.

The Feature request thread is here:

Feature Requests for BlackBerry10 OS

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This thread has been closed and is continued in this new thread here:
Feature Requests beyond BlackBerry OS10.3.1
Please click on that link.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Let's use this thread to list BlackBerry10 OS feature requests. There's nothing official to this thread, but one never knows who might view it and get an idea or two to move foward.
Please let's keep it to feature requests with simple short statements and comments, in this manner:
1. Ability to lock the volume keys (since they are so easliy pressed when retrieving from holster)
2. Personal distribution groups Address Book
4. Add BBM Group icon to home screen
**This thread is not for bug reports (i.e., the calendar glitches when I set the date) or for debate or discussion of the worthiness of a feature request.
So, what would YOU add to BB10?
What do YOU need to make the OS platform work better for you?
Here are the collected feature requests as of 04 April 2013. Thanks for Ride_The_Sky for helping collect these from this thread.

Better night shots in camera (hardware or software improvement?)

When app is opened from a folder three or four pages into apps list, we hope the screen can go back to that spot when the app is closed (sadly it uses active frames at the moment)

Send SMS to new numbers (I think you can still do this from call log)
Single key press to change profiles.
Insert a picture into an e-mail. (I think he means into the body of email)
Turning off links of contacts (I think poster did not have multiple accounts, actually BB10 goes ahead and adds all new contacts into all address books in all accounts without user permission.. Create a contact in Hotmail? Gets copied to Gmail.. and then linked, terrible implementation in my opinion)
Presets for browser bookmarks, faster access to bookmarks. (My suggestion was to create a home screen, select 12 icons 3x4 or 16 icons 4x4 as home screen/start page)
Being able to allow flash based on website/url/server.
Ability to adjust different sounds/volumes for different BBM users/groups
Better Voice Dial and Voice Commands (shorter and easier operation)
Ability close one or all web pages/tabs, add "Close All" button.

Faster way to delete e-mails, such as file icons next to e-mails, or Swipe to Delete! Swipe to File!?
Customize email signatures with formatting.
Phone to stay on screen (dial pad always available in panes)
More Options for Clock.
In Playbook we can have a single character password, why not on BB10? "too short" well it is my decision, isn't it?
There is no way to go next/previous while reading an e-mail. Please add these functions.
Add to the e-mail client, Next Unread / Previous Unread.
E-mail or Hub should have more buttons at the bottom in landscape mode. Why keep only three (or four in e-mail view) buttons when you have the real estate. It would be extremely handy if you allowed users to edit which buttons should go at the bottom. Next Previous is really needed while reading an e-mail. For example I would love to add "File" button at the bottom as a shortcut instead of forward, I rarely forward, but I file all the time. Maybe allow users to have two row of keys, add next/previous/unread. Or it could be done with a gesture. How about swiping the account name (top blue bar while reading e-mail) left and right?
When you create a new contact in BlackBerry, it gets synced to all accounts on the Hub. There is no way to limit the new contact to a specific account.
Sometimes when you file an e-mail to a folder, it stops and waits few seconds with no message. Even when it files immediately, there is a confirmation message that takes time to appear and disappear, and the folder list does not disappear automatically.
Messages filed automatically by server using server side filter rules are still showing up on Blackberry hub/inbox. In older BB versions the filtered messages did not show up in the list, filed messages still did.
When you filter your e-mails using Filter / Unread function, new unread e-mails do not show up until you close the filter and re-open. It won't just keep refreshing your screen with unread e-mails. Can BB add a button to the hub "Unread Hub" so when hub shows 8 or 2, you can actually see unread items easily without having to through so many taps.
Native BB QR scanner (Smart Tags) does not work with barcodes (it only scans with no way to use the information). There is Open In function but it doesn't work properly.
We need to add more customs search providers, and be able to add custom search strings/wildcards. For example currently there is Google, Bing, Yahoo, Foursquare, etc..
I hope BB introduces the ability include more standard & custom searches, IMDB, PriceGrabber, Ebay, Youtube, XYZ Forums, ABC Newspaper, 123 Database, Etc.. Most sites nowadays provide search string in their URL Search=?* etc...
None of the Battery apps can access system settings to add a battery icon to the top. I wish battery percentage was there.
There is no way to check carrier/mobile signal strength.
Blackberry, please add the date and carrier / SSID info to the top. Sometimes we just want to glance at the top to see the date without having to swipe.
Please bring back keyboard shortcuts. Since we can easily swipe up to bring the keyboard, just add keyboard shortcuts in e-mail, phone (true speed dialing, dialing by word?), and browser, etc.. if possible. I could always call 1800SOMETHING# now I have to look up the number or use dial pad.. Please bring it back.
Camera zoom function needs to be fixed, also please include option of fixed focus by tapping on the screen to focus. The auto focus in video is focusing in and out to various objects all the time. Stabilization feature also causes tearing/ripples, I guess it is good if you are stationary. Or use Volume Keys to Zoom.
Please allow more than 12 icons in an icon group/folder, I hated Apple for limiting apps per folder, please fix it.
Auto ON/OFF feature is not there anymore. BB should consider Auto DND (DoNotDisturb) or Auto Silent/Airplane modes instead.
Please find a way to stop the music app from automatically starting up every time it connects to bluetooth like car audio. This is very annoying.
No Panaroma mode in Camera app, why not? It is very easy to incorporate. This could be a nice addition to next release, and easy.
The text selection grips needs to be a little bigger, sometimes I cannot see where I am moving them, they work better in Playbook, nice big tabs.
Call Functions, before answering a phone add sideways gesture functions, like swiping right will forward the call, swiping left will answer with a test message, etc..
Or there should be a way to reject the call without sending it to voice mail, phones had this function a decade ago, I don't know what happened to it.
We used to be able to see the "History" without having to save the contact. Now I don't see any way to "View History" of a certain phone number, it just keeps adding
them as individual entries to the log. Now I can't see when was the last time they called me, how many times we spoke which day, etc... I loved this feature in BB5.
Where is BB Traffic? Where is BB Weather, without having to run an active frame? It will eventually disappear if you run too many apps. I liked a little Icon that shows me what the temp is, instead of running a whole app.
There is no Skype. This day and age with all other platforms having it, please either get skype (Microsoft) to cooperate, or open up BBM to other platforms. If necessary, pay Skype to develop the app, then charge BB users for the app. Most will gladly pay.
Can we tap and hold on an active frame to pin it, or can we pin two favorite apps between Call and Search & Search and Camera buttons in the bottom bar? How about Close All running Active Frames app to quickly free up ram?
I hope next generation devices have two speakers or speaker that is facing forward. When playing games or watching videos in landscape mode, I find my palm muting the speaker. I have to hold it gently with fingers to have a gap in between, something I don't want to do when I am on the subway or bus.
Blackberry Maps should have a Zoom In/Zoom Out buttons, sometimes using it with one hand, it is impossible to zoom in and out. (Zoom in is OK but we can't zoom back out)

Feature Requests beyond BlackBerry OS10.3.1

So, with 10.3.0 and 10.3.1 now officially released on the Passport and Classic, let's look forward!
What feature request(s) would you like to see included in future updates, say OS10.3.2 and beyond? Of course, there's nothing official to this thread, but one never knows who might view it and get an idea or two to move foward.
Please post your feature request below, and let's make sure BlackBerry has a good reference point for user-input on what we'd like to see.
Let's simple short statements AND please add the value of your request (i.e., why that feature request has value to you):
Ability to lock the volume keys (since they are so easliy pressed when retrieving from holster)
Implement a shutdown confirmation screen to the top edge power key before shutting down (many pocket carrying users complain of device shutdowns in their pocket).
Allow BlackBerry Protect to automatically backup and restore personal data, such as contacts (I trust BlackBerry to protect our data and other third party apps can do this already).
**This thread is not for bug reports (i.e., the calendar glitches when I set the date) or for debate or discussion of the worthiness of a feature request.
So, what would YOU like to see beyond 10.3.1?
1. If any post helps you please click the below the post(s) that helped you.

PIN: C0005A9AA Display/Scan Bar Code

Cool! I was waiting for this, there are a few things I would like to see.
OS
- No frames option (for the people that want this), this means that you swipe up it will never go to a active frame
- Keep swiping to close, when you keep swiping up it will close the app/frame (like on playbook I think it was)
- Auto reboot, choose a day, time when your phone restarts (and unlocks after reboot) this is nice for people that want their phone to reboot when they sleep so they have a fresh start and don't have to reboot during work day
- Alternative keyboard, everyone knows the BlackBerry keyboard is awesome.. but allow developers to create own keyboards (native, no android port)
- Themes, One reason why people jailbreak iPhone or use Android or loved BBOS. Themes that will totally transform your phone, keyboard, colours will be nice for people that want to customize their device
- Font type change, this was possible in BBOS. Some people like to have a different font.
- Completely light OS, this is something personal; some people like dark theme, some people like light.. but with the latest BlackBerry OS 10.3.1 it is still mixed up, some parts are light some parts are dark. When selecting light theme everything should be light, all core apps, buttons, everything, when you select dark everything will be dark, and then there will be a customize option where you can set it for each app (core apps and layout) how you want it
- Show date, time, signal always on top-option, Remember.. screenshots on internet are shown a lot, when posting a screenshot of a BlackBerry 10 app nobody knows its BlackBerry, with BBOS you always had time, signal, on top people knew it was a BlackBerry and would be nice to get this back, plus no need for swiping up to see the time
E-mail
- Able to create filters, example move e-mails from this person to this folder, and give them this colour or move everything with this word in header or subject and delete it forward it and more.
- "Out of Office", able to set out of office for work emails / accounts as automatic reply
Hub
- More colours, now there are only a few
Keyboard
- Emoij button on the keyboard (including special characters)
LED
- More led colours and settings
Cloud, Sync and backup
- Create backup from your device instead of BlackBerry link and backup them to any cloud storage (or blackberry cloud)
- Sync bookmarks and settings with your BlackBerry ID
- Sync remember with your BlackBerry ID
- Sync Wi-Fi networks and passwords with your BlackBerry ID
- BlackBerry Cloud storage (5 or 10GB free and pay for more?)
Blend
- Webblend access your phone from a secure BlackBerry website so you don't have to install any program on a computer you maybe will only use for one day.
BBM
- Multiply login, access BBM on more devices (including a web version) at the same time
- PIN transfer, take your BlackBerry PIN to your new device. I really liked my old BB pin but when I sold the device I lost it, it would be nice to be able to "keep" my BBM pin or get a personal pin
- Add user my phone number if linked, BBM Pin is awesome but allow users to also add people with phone number so you can give your phone number or pin If my contacts get BBM but forget to give their pin they will just show because I have their phone number
Device
*nothing yet*

Feature Request: Several Key Items

I am not really new to DPS. Have been publishing under contract for my client for the last 2 years now and it's been going great. However, there seems to be a few things we wish for that we can't seem to do. I figured this is probably the best place to request these features, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that somehow these make their way into an update or are considered maybe for other program features (you'll see what I mean later when I get into it).
1) It would be nice if we could produce apps for android phones as well as tablets. I am more of an iOS guy but we do have a bunch of users who want to access these folios on their phablets and android phones but cannot get access to it. I don't know how complicated this process might be but it would be a great feature to add in any upcoming DPS releases.
2) We are using DPS for publishing but we have been requested to use it in an "app style". The client wants this because they are comfortable with DPS and happy that their staff can use pretty much all the adobe suite programs. Maybe an ability to disable the browse toolbar (where the thumbails for articles show up and navigate). This way we can create a single page with MSOs and trick the user into thinking they're in an app instead of a digital magazine publishing platform app. This would work great for companies that want an app to accompany their magazine and display info about the company, how to reach them etc instead of having certain pages within the magazine.
3) A muse widget. I would love if we could directly export muse files directly into DPS (say, as if we were importing an image). I know this may be much to ask since this isn't the Muse feature request board but it woudl be nice to be able to export it as a widget that will automatically package it into an element with all the required files to import into DPS.
4) As muse and DPS are both great apps for designers who don't know how to code, maybe one or the other, or creating an app that is based off of the two could be an excellent choice for deisgners. There is a huge gap in the market for app builders. Muse is mainly a web builder and DPS is mainly for publishing. I think if Adobe could maybe mash the two into an app that helps users build basic apps. Imagine being able to make an app the same way you do in DPS? Having preset widgets such as capture image from camera, use geolocation, upload to server or whatever. I'm not too verse in this but it'd be nice if I could use an Adobe app to build an app that wasn't just a digital magazine. Maybe my lack of knowledge in this area is simplfying the whole process so forgive me if that's the case. From a business perspective it just seems that there is a huge gap for this, and maybe Adobe can conjure something up for the Adobe Faithful.
5) Automatic web viewer. Would be nice if whatever displayed on my iPad can automatically shoot up into a web viewer linked to a business catalyst account or a specified server as an HTML5 file. Again, I haven't gone too much into the web viewer version so forgive me if this already exists, but I have looked through some documentation and not really found much on it.
6) WIDGETS! More widgets like muse would be a life saver! Maybe something like a slideshow instead of just having the MSOs fade in and fade out, maybe allow a widget to do a slideshow that snaps into place everytime you swipe. It seems more natural since a lot of the apps function this way. Widgets also open up a lot of doors, maybe allowing users to create their own widget and housing a widget library on the adobe website?
Just some thoughts, not sure which ones are really doable but I figured it's worth a shot requesting them.
Thanks for your time!
Best Regards,

What Do You think of My Feature Requests?

Hi, I submitted the following Feature Requests to the Premiere CC feature requests form.
I think Premiere CC keeps improving but there are some things that really annoy me. And below are some of my requests. I'd love to know if any of these requests are in error - if I'm actually missing something.
Thanks for checking these out!
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
AUTO-PATCHING
How would you like the feature to work?
When I select a Track Target - such as V1 Target - the Source patch should follow along. For example, if I select V1, then the V1 Source should automatically move next to V1
Why is this feature important to you?
This saves time and saves an extra, unnecessary step of having to move the Source patch.
This makes editing faster and more intuitive.
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
Increase/Decrease Volume using Keyboard for MULTIPLE CLIPS at once (between In and Out)
How would you like the feature to work?
1. Set in and out in the Timeline
2. Make sure Audio Targets are set for the tracks you want to affect
3. Press your keyboard shortcuts for increasing or decreasing volume
Result: All Audio volumes between In and Out go up or down by the same amount.
Why is this feature important to you?
This saves a lot of time. Currently, I have to copy and paste Volume attributes and that wastes time and is not as intuitive.
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
Select Nearest Edit Keyboard Commands Should Select All Nearest Edits on All TARGETED TRACKS, even if staggered
How would you like the feature to work?
1. Position Playhead near the edits you want selected (for Trim)
1B: Make sure the Track Targets for the tracks you want to affect are highlighted
2. Press the Keyboard Shortcut for Select Nearest Edit…
Result: Even if the edit points don't all line up on the same frame, Premiere should select (with a Roller, etc) ALL edit points NEAREST to the playhead on Tracks which have their Target buttons selected.
How it works now: Now Premiere only select those edit points that line up together the same frame.
Why is this feature important to you?
How Premiere currently works wastes a lot of time. It currently requires the editor to manually click and add other edit selections.
Currently, Premiere does not actually select all the edit points on SELECTED TRACKS.
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
REMOVE EFFECT - ALLOW US TO CHOOSE WHICH EFFECTS
How would you like the feature to work?
1. Highlight one or more Clips to select them.
2. Press the Remove Effects Keyboard Shortcut
What should happen: Premiere should present you with a window that allows you to check the effects you want to remove or uncheck the effects you don't want to remove.
Why is this feature important to you?
This is very important because often I have a remove just one effect on a large group of effects. I don't have the time - it would take forever - to go through each individual clip and eliminate that particular effect in the Effect Controls panel.
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
A Paste Insert should move the IN/OUT marks down the Timeline, just like the clips
How would you like the feature to work?
1. Set an In an Out point somewhere in the timeline.
2 In the timeline, after copying some material, PASTE INSERT, the clips in front of a whole bunch of other clips (also earlier than the In/Out marks)
What Should Happen:
Material AND In/Out marks should shift to the right to maintain sync.
What currently happens:
Premiere correctly shifts the Clips that follow the pasted material, Down the Timeline, to maintain sync. However, Premiere keeps the In/Out Marks where they are.
Why is this feature important to you?
I often copy material that's between In/Out marks and then go earlier in the Timeline and paste Insert that material. But when I jump back to the In point (Go to In) the In/Out marks haven't move and so I have to find my place in the material all over again.
It shouldn't work this way. It wastes time. And other NLEs don't do it this way. They shift the In/Out marks.

Nice requests. Just trying to be helpful here:
Re REMOVE EFFECT - ALLOW US TO CHOOSE WHICH EFFECTS
I agree - this could be quite useful. However, It sounds like using adjustment layers may be helpful for your workflow also?
Re: Increase/Decrease Volume using Keyboard for MULTIPLE CLIPS at once (between In and Out)
I've stopped using volume altogether now, and instead use 'Gain' mapped to "g" key in premiere keyboard layout. SUPER useful, for all the reasons you describe. I've never used I/O marks, but you can make big selections of clips, or a whole track's. Volume controls in Premiere, as far as I can tell, caps at +6DB for some reason. I routinely have to go much higher than that. also there is a very intelligent gain options screen that lets you bump your selected clips relatively by +/- DB levels; or set absolute values; OR set normalization targets. I LOVE IT, and its all I use now.
It seems to me that the audio component of Premiere if far more sophisticated than any other NLE I've used [ Avid MC, FCP...]. My only caveat is that volume and gain are not integrated across all methodologies. For example, you can have a volume adjustment on the clip, the track, and gain adjustments on the clip all operating independently- its alot to keep track of on projects that get passed back and forth between different editors with different methods!

Feature Request (again); Adobe Bridge Cache Manager

In Adobe Bridge, the Cache is still a problem and a huge memory hog. I asked for a good Cache Manager over 3 years ago when it was needed CS4.
Now in CS6, I am disappointed that the cache system in Bridge has not changed. Why do you have a section in the Adobe Forums that asks for 'Feature Request' and then ignore them?

"I would personally like a tool within Bridge that allows me to manage and control the Cache in a more personal and effective way. I would like a toggle that would keep '100% previews' in one folder for a selected period of time (1 day to 1 month) before the folder's cache is automatically purged. And another toggle that would give me the option to keep a selected folder's cache permanently intact (such as an Important Portfolio Folder or an Edited Images Folder).
As a photographer, I take and edit a lot of photos. When I import a photoshoot with 1,500 photos (not uncommom at all) I enjoy having the Bridge Previews at 100%, but for only a limited time. Unfortunately, I forget to purge the individual cache of that folder and the cache builds to a point that makes Adobe Bridge CS4 very slow. I then have to Purge the whole Bridge Cache in order to make Bridge run smooth again.

If you submit a feedback poll where Yammer pointed you, and it gets a couple of hundred (thousand?) users agree you might get Adobe's attention.
I agree with Yammer that Bridge is a low priority project with Adobe. Think their target audience is the casual user with a few hundred photos added each year. Your use pattern is more specialized and you either have to adapt with scripts or move to another product IMO.
The size of cache takes a lot of people by surprise. It can grow humongous if you use HQ thumbs and save 100% previews. One can dump the cache in preferences, but many are reluctant to to this as they think it will delete all their keywords and edits. In addition, to do a search you have to re-index all your files, which can take a long time.
If you have "export cache to folders" checked, dumping the cache in preferences only dumps the central cache. To dump the folder cache you have to visit each folder and click on Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder. Again, most people do not recognize this. This technique purges both the central and folder cache for this folder only.
It the 100% previews are the problem for you it would seem like a simple task for the script people to write one that would delete it after xx days as the 100% previews are held in a specific folder.
Bridge is not a good digital asset manager. You are probably in that arena dealing with several hundred thousand images. Omke uses a DAM as it does some functions better than Bridge, but Bridge is still his main program. Can't remember the name, but if you read these posts you might have seen it.

Here's my wishlist for ACR. I'll list the feature first and then in a separate section afterwards, I'll explain why I want it.
1) Shadow/Highlights
2) Multi-instance and modeless behavior for ACR so I can truly have ACR open, Bridge open, PS open and work in all three and even open another ACR window.
3) The ability to open one image into PS and keep the rest going in ACR when you have multiple images open in ACR.
4) The point locator feature for curves like curves has in PS so you can find out what tone area on the curve a given area in the photo is, just by clicking/dragging over an area on the photo.
5) White balance assist to make it easier to get skin tones right when there are no good grayscale references in the photo.
6) An ACR pref to have a suffix automatically added to each filename when it goes into PS so after editing it in PS, I can just hit Ctrl-S and not have to manually add a suffix onto every single image I edit in CS.
7) A drag/drop bin for recently used saved settings in ACR and shortcut keys for cycling through a preview of those settings (described in more detail below).
8) A pref to allow the Save Images folder in the Save dialog in ACR to default to the directory of the RAW files rather than the last directory used.
9) More sophisticated sharpening in ACR (like smart sharpening).
10) Ability to set label or rating when only one image open in ACR.
11) Ability to delete and close when only one image open in ACR.
12) An easier way to see how a rotated image looks. There is no way in ACR to see the straight version of an image you've rotated slightly.
13) Shortcut keys to cycle through saved curve settings.
Here's the explanation for why I want each of these:
1) Shadow/Highlights. A significant percentage of my images need no other adjustments in PS except shadow/highlights and it's a big workflow savings to be able to finish a picture in ACR instead of having to take it into PS.
2) Multi-instance and modeless. The CS2 behavior is better than it was before because you can set it up for Bridge to host ACR and still be able to use PS. But, I often open many images in ACR and the current design still forces me to serially finish all those images in ACR before I do anything else becuase I'm blocked from going back to either Bridge or PS (depending upon who's hosting ACR) and I can't open any other images in ACR. This forces a serial workflow when sometimes I'd like to be able to be in the middle of one workflow (a hundred images open in ACR), but go do something else in Bridge and PS for a short period of time. I can't do that today.
3) The ability to open one image from ACR into PS while keeping the other images in ACR. When I see the preview in ACR, this is often the first time I've seen my images at any decent size. I often find I want to take a few into PS just to see how well they fix up with certain changes or to see if they benefit from things I can do in PS and can't in ACR, without discarding all the other images I have in ACR at the time. So, again, I am forced to serially finish all the image I have in ACR before I can take any into PS. I'd like to be able to open the selected images in PS and keep the others in ACR.
4) The point locator feature that PS has in the curves dialog is very valuable for finding out where on the curve a given feature in the photo is. I'd like that feature in the PS curves.
5) White balance assist for skin tones. One of the hardest things in ACR is getting the white balance right for skin tones when there is no easy gray reference in the photo. I don't know how it would work (I think this is an area for your invention and cleverness), but I'd like some sort of white balance assist that helps me pick a white balance that leads to a pleasing skin tone. I'd be willing to tell ACR where the skin tone is by pointing at it.
6) I add a suffix of "-edited" to ALL images that I open in PS from ACR. That means I have to type that suffix on every image when I hit the Save command in PS. I'd like a preference in ACR to automatically append a suffix onto the filename when it goes into PS to save me that typing on every single image. I've even tried to figure out if I could write a script in PS to do this for me (if file extension is a RAW file extension when user hits save, then add default suffix to the filename before Save dialog comes up), but I haven't figured out whether it can be done via script or not. I know that others save their PSD or JPEG files to a different directory than their RAW files (I keep all of mine in the same directory so this isn't an issue for me), so I imagine they'd like the ability to specify a default relative path also to save having to point every PSD they save in PS to a new directory.
7) Drag/drop bin for RAW settings. In a workflow of processing 200-800 RAW files, I'd like the ability to easily and temporarily save a small number of RAW file settings (10 would do). I know you can do it in the pull right menu in ACR today, but that's too much typing and clicks to make it worth it. I'm looking for something that allows me to pick a bunch of files from a shoot, identify a representative "sunny" shot and drop it's settings into a bin that I quickly label sunny. Then, when other sunny shots come up, rather than having to scroll around to find that image or go back to bridge to find that image, I just drag it out of the bin an drop it on the selected images. I don't want it to persist globally because then they pile up and I have to clean them up. I do need them to persist between ACR sessions as long as Bridge or PS is still running because I often process my RAW files in many ACR sessions. The whole point is to make an easy place for me to deposit a small number of saved settings so I can easily (very few mouse clicks or keystores) use them again while processing the same shoot. It's all about speeding up the workflow and letting me re-use work I've done earlier in the workflow. In my experience, this happens most often for white balance and curves since I'm more likely to tweak exposure on nearly every shot anyway.
8) When I hit Save Images in ACR, it remembers the previously set directory. In my workflow, I want it to default to the directory of the first image I'm saving. The way it is now, it is NEVER the right directory so I always have to change it. It could be smart enough so my normal workflow never has to change it. Even better, I'd get to set a pref that was a relative path from where the first image is located. So, when I'm saving JPEGs, I could have a default path of ./JPEG (a sub-directory under where the RAW files are located). Other people would want ../JPEG (a sub-directory at the same level as where the RAW files are stored).
9) In the spirit of getting as much of my work done in ACR as possible, I'd like to see a unification of the sharpening functionality so that ACR can do smart sharpening with all the same features. That would again keep many of my images out of PS and drastically improve my workflow.
10) I'd like the ability to set a label or rating when there's only one image open in ACR. Because you can do this when you have multiple images open in ACR, I'm programmed to set this in ACR, but that workflow programming is busted when I only have one image open.
11) I'd like the ability to delete an image from ACR when there's only one image open in ACR. Just like with labels and ratings described above, I'm programmed to want to delete a ruined image when I see it up close in ACR and determine it's no good. In this case, I think I'd like to just hit the trash can icon and have the ACR window close and have the image deleted in one single step.
12) When I straighten an image in ACR, there's no good way to see how the rotated version looks at full size. All you get to see is a thumb in ACR (if you have multiple images open) or a thumb in Bridge. To see whether it rea

Feature Request: iTunes to merge the "Song Name" & "Artist" fields

This is a feature request that i would like to see in a future release of iTunes. The option to merge the "Song Name" & "Artist" fields together. This would be a very valuable option when surfing your iTunes Library thru your iPod, Front Row, or Apple TV.
Let me explain:
Not everyone knows at the top of their head who sings a particular song. This is especially true when someone other than the owner of the iTunes Library is browsing through it.
Let's say that I want to browse my ENTIRE music collection all at once. The easiest way to do this, is by browsing thru the "Songs" list because it creates 1 massive list displaying ALL the songs in the library, without having to jump into different fields. The current problem with this, is, it only lists the name of the song. There are 2 problems with this philosophy. #1 - You must know who sings the songs to have any chance of making this a useful option because the artist is not displayed. #2 - It puts them in alphabetical based on the song name. Once again, not a very useful way to make this option really functional because you will have the Artists all over the map! Keeping the Artist's songs together makes it a much more feasable option.
The solution, I feel, would be to have iTunes create an "Option" that would allow users like me to make iTunes merge the "Artist" & "Name" fields together. Make it an option so that users who do not see the benefit to this, would not have to use it. By doing this, I could now surf my ENTIRE collection via the "Songs" field in a very logical approach.
For an example, let's take a song: Artist - "Def Leppard" & Song Name - "Pour Some Sugar On Me". By clicking this option, when browsing thru the "Songs" field, it would now display as: Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me. This allows me to browse my ENTIRE library while at the same time, keeping "like" songs together, and making it very easy to distinguish whether or not it is a song I want to select. By knowing that Def Leppard is a Rock Artist, it helps to distinguish the song.
I work for a custom AV integration shop that has put hundreds of music servers into homes. We have been teaching our clients the benefits of this for some time now, with great feedback. The only problem presently, is it requires the users to have to re-edit every single file by putting the Artist's Name & the Song Title into the "Name" field of iTunes. Very time consuming! As well, because you also have the "Artists" name entered in the "Artist" field, you get Front Row displaying the "Artist" name twice, once in the song name, and once in the artist's field.
Any feedback would be welcomed.
Regards,
Trevor

You might be able to get where you want using Chaotic Software's MediaRage. It can automate and batch tag editing, including building a Title tag that combines Artist and Title and, to possibly address you other problem, blanking the Artist tag.
MediaRage is not expensive and it is very powerful, you can even define regexs for how to parse tags.

Feature request: option to deactivate builtin screen when monitor connected

This is a feature request for laptops, or rather for the Air specifically. To see why it might be a good thing, see this thread:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=449778
I'd like a checkbox in the display preferences to deactivate the internal monitor when an external monitor is plugged in. This would save load on the Air's GPU and reduce heat while using an external monitor.
Users of the regular Macbook might want this as well.

Apple doesn't monitor the forum for feature requests and the like. It's just for user-to-user help.
Also note that this feature already exists: all Mac laptops sold in the past few years, including the MacBook Air, can be run with only an external monitor. It's called closed-lid mode.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307315
If you then want to open the lid to increase cooling, you can. Once the external display is attached, the internal display does not come on automatically when you open it.

Spaces Feature Request?

I used to use VirtueDesktops under 10.4 for a virtual screen experience, and switched over to Spaces in 10.5, so far, I'm very happy, but I have one issue I'd love Apple to resolve and a feature request:
- Finder error messages don't always "stick" or accompany the application that generates them (from a user point of view), which can make them annoying to find when they get hidden behind a currently active application window you're working in in another Space, or another Space entirely. The Finder / desktop experience should have an option to pop up application error messages over all other windows and automatically take you to the Space it's in, so you can avoid going on a search for "where's the error window" to get control of the application back.
- I like the feature with Spaces where you can Click-&-Drag an application with the CTRL key, press a number, and off the application goes to that Space, but that only seems to work from 1-9. For those of us that can count in hexadecimal it'd be neat to be able to use CTRL-A through CTRL-F with this feature (in hexadecimal, A=10, B=11, and so on) to get at the rest of the Spaces available (I use all 16). While CTRL-A through CTRL-F have meanings in other contexts, I think it'd still be a good idea to enable that for this feature.
I'm sure there are tricks I don't know too that may get me around these issues - comments welcome, please!

If you want to report this to Apple, send a bug report (or enhancement request) via its Bug Reporter system. Join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report/enhancement request. You'll get a get a Bug (ER) ID number; thus, starting a dialog directly with engineering.

Feature Request: AME Watch Folders file type filter

Hi,
maybe I'm posting it to the wrong forum. If so, maybe some moderator can move this thread to the correct forum.
I'm exporting Quicktime Reference files from Avid, which creates two files: .mov and. wav. Since I'm exporting it to Watch Folder AME automatically converts the wav also. But would be useful to "tell" AME only convert files with mov extension. It's of course possible later to erase encoded sound files but would be convinient to point out only the file types which require converting.
thank you,

Feature request: keyword search like Google Toolbar

One of the features (well, the ONLY feature) that keeps me from using Safari as my default browser is a feature I get through Google's Toolbar.
After you type in keywords for a search in Google's toolbar. You can click on the word (in the right area) and it will automatically find the next occurrence of that word on the page. (You can alternatively clock on the "highlighter" icon and it will highlight any words in your search). You can find any individual word.
Safari's feature to do this, as far as I can tell, is far less useful. After you type in some keywords. You can click on the magnifying glass and at the bottom, it has the ability to search for the keyword OR phrase, depending on how you search.
Google's Toolbar feature is amazingly productive -- and useful. I can't figure out why none of the browsers have picked up on this feature.
(If someone knows a way to do this with Safari, I'd appreciate it).
Thank you.

Thank you very much for the responses. I spent forever trying to find the feature request area in support, but failed. Perhaps it would have bitten me.... Thanks for the pointer...
As for this capability, there's no reason why a browser couldn't support this feature -- doesn't matter that Google did it in a toolbar. And, in fact, if you click on the magnifying glass in the search box, it does allow you to search within the current page for what you searched for (though it's limited only to the "phrase"). It's at the bottom... You have to have words in the search box to see this.
I'll make the suggestion directly to Apple.
To anyone who hasn't used this capability -- it's really powerful. That said, you need the Google Toolbar which is only supported on Firefox, not Safari (on the Mac platform).

Feature Request: Auto-save in Background

Here's a feature request I've submitted. If you agree, please submit your request to:
http://www.adobe.com/go/wish/
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
Background Auto Save
How would you like the feature to work?
Auto-save would work just as it does today, except it would work as a background process, as it already does in Photoshop (without the Autosave popup getting in the way of the edit).
Why is this feature important to you?
The current autosave feature is terrifice and expected in any application today, but the current autosave popup dialog is useless. It only has a "Cancel" button. What's the point? I can't imagine when I would ever want to cancel an auto-save. And let's say I *did* want to cancel. The dialog is only on screen for a second or so. That's not enough time for user interaction, but it is just enough time for my work to be interupted, and for me to potentially hit the enter key as I go to Render something at precisely the same time.

Hi cscouper2013,
Thanks for taking the time to point out that my BSODs might be a problem with my RAM! Yes, I'll test it with the program you mention.
cscooper2013 wrote:
While I'm thinking of it, too. Sometimes Premiere will do an auto save only moments after I've done a hard save. That also seems like something to address in the next auto save feature update. If I have my autosave increment set to 5 minutes, then it seems to me there's no need to do an autosave for another 5 minutes after my last manual save.
I fully agree! That's something I requested during the CS5 beta program. I requested that every time a user does a manual save, the Autosave reset its counter. So for example, if the delay is 10 minutes between auto saves, and the user does a manual save two minutes before the next scheduled autosave, the autosave counter resets to 10 more minutes. But with the better solution of the current project constantly being saved after each edit, as Jim suggested, this feature wouldn't even be needed anymore.
MonkeyEatsMonkey wrote:If Premiere could "borrow" that functionality, while still retaining a "save as" option for versioning, I feel like we'd have the best of both worlds. It would even make dynamic linking more seamless, since changes wouldn't require saving. Any thoughts from the community on this?
That would be a perfect solution IMO! And yes, retaining the 'Save As' option would be very important!
I also like the idea of automatic versioning/backups (could be renamed to 'versions' since with a constantly saved project file, automatic 'backups' would no longer be necessary.
To resume, based on what has been discussed in this thread, I believe these would be the ideal saving options in Premiere:
Autosaving of every edit in the background without slowing down editing performance (as suggested by Jim).
Ability to create a user defined number of automatic backup versions, by setting maximum number of versions and time intervals (as is currently the case with Premiere).
In other words, the current project file would constantly be updated as the user edits. The automatic backups/versions would be created at user defined intervals.
Users would retain the ability to create a copy of the current project at any moment through the 'Save As' and 'Save a Copy' commands that already exist in Premiere.
Pop-up Auto-save dialogue boxes and the 'Save' command would be a thing of the past!
IMO, this would truly give us the best of both words as MonkeyEastMonkey suggests: constant saving as per FCPX, with the comprehensive versioning options Premiere currently offers.
Anything missing?

Feature Request: Apply effects to group of clip instances

I have been trying to supply this feature request into the Adobe feedback form. But it appeared that it was too large to be posted in a single feedback form. So I had to split it into three distinct feedback forms.
I don't want this feature request to get lost just because those three parts can't be joined back into a single feature request again. So I'd like to post it here, requesting for comments, too...
This feature request is about applying effects to more than one clip:
a)
Currently, when selecting more than one clip, it's not possible to change any effects settings. The Effects Settings windows only shows a "Multiple clips selected" message.
Thus, I'd like to suggest the following:
When selecting more than one clip, the Effects Settings window should display any effects that apply to all the selected clips. Moreover, only those effect parameter values should be displayed having the same value across all selected effects. This on the other hand, of course, can only be displayed for effect parameters not having key frames/timing activated.
Editing any of the displayed effects' parameters should apply the new value to each currently selected clip instance.
b)
Then again, when using key frame/timing activated effect parameters, it is currently not possible to apply such effect to more than a clip, too. To apply such animated effects to more than one clip it is currently necessary to nest those clips into a separate sequence.
Thus, I'd like to suggest the following improvement:
It should be possible to apply effects not only to clips but also to a group of clips (Menu Clip > Group).
Activating animation/key framing to any of the effect settings of those effects being assigned to a clip group (in contrast to those effects assigned to any clip instance contained in the the group) will allow to add key frames spanning all clips of the group.
This way it will be possible to easily create, e.g., a zoom effect spanning several clips.
If there are clips in-between those belonging to the group, the group's effects won't be applied to those clips not belonging to the group. However, the effects' parameter values are continued to be calculated in the background.
So this example would be true:
- Available clips:
| a | b | c | d | e |
- Clips grouped into a Clip Group:
| a |   | c |   | e |
- Zoom video effect applied to the group, having two key frames added:
Key frame #1 = beginning of clip | a |
Key frame #2 = end of clip | e |
Zoom value of key frame #1 = 100%
Zoom value of key frame #2 = 400%
--> So this will be the approximated calculated zoom value when the timeline reaches following points in time:
Beginning of clip | a |:     100%
End of clip       | a |:     132%
Beginning of clip | b |: (100%)
End of clip       | b |: (100%)
Beginning of clip | c |:     174%
End of clip       | c |:     230%
Beginning of clip | d |: (100%)
End of clip       | d |: (100%)
Beginning of clip | e |:     303%
End of clip       | e |:     400%
(Unfortunately, this forum doesn't allow me to apply any kind of formatting to the example above. So I can't apply a monospace font or colouring )
When a group gets ungrouped (Menu Clip > Ungroup), effects that had been applied to the group will be assigned to each individual clip of the group. For effect parameters that had key frames/animation activated, key frames will be created at the beginning and end of each of the clips. The previously calculated values will now be inserted at each automatically created key frame to mimic the grouped effect behaviour. This operation then would finalize the Ungroup operation involving clip group effects.

Axel Dahmen

You could combine the Next/Previous Edit commands with either the Apply Video Transition shortcut or with a paste command if you had copied the transition you want.
OR... much easier if all you want is a bunch of consistent fade ins/fade outs...
On a single clip, keyframe opacity to create a fade in from the in point of the clip at the duration you like, e.g. 30 frames. Right click Opacity, and select Save Preset; give it a name, e.g. Fade In 30 Frames and set it to Anchor to In Point. Reset the effect and delete the keyframes, and then repeat this to create a fade out. Go to the out point of the clip, set keyframes, and once again, right-click Opacity and Save Preset; this time call it something like Fade Out 30 Frames and set it to Anchor to Out Point.
Now, you can simply select all of your clips in the sequence, and apply these presets by dragging them to the selection. Even though you created two presets, because you can only have one instance of Opacity on a clip, the keyframes from both presets will be added to that single effect. You have to do this with two presets--if you do it with one and use Scale, the keyframes will stretch out or compress to maintain a relative duration instead of an absolute duration.

AMP Feature request thread

I've just started trying to use the AMP for some home entertainment and I must say it has been a challenge to enjoy this product in its current form. Perhaps I dont have a grasp on what the expressed functions of the player are, and what advantages can it offer me over the myriad of other players and services.
I can find nowhere else to leave feedback and suggestions or have dialog with adobe developers so I thought, like in many other Adobe product forums, to begin a feature request thread in hopes that if enough users add feedback we may eventually have an improved product. In the same regard users can enlighten others as to what functions they find useful already. Its not meant to be a gripe list but a chance to voice constructive ideas and share experience with the product.
Preamble complete, I will have first go:
1) The system options seem very limited to me, for instance I can not find an option to view or change in what directory\folder the video files are downloaded or cached to.
2) A minimized view or skin would add benefit for me. It seems now the only options are full screen and a small window housed inside the AMP program window. With any other media player I have used one can play a file in a resizable window without all the other program buttons and menus eating up your screen space.
3) Video controls options during playback, like chroma level, brightness/contrast, gamma. This is standard on other players.
4) I get annoyed when I am watching a video and I pause and go to the home or favorites tab, AMP automatically disconnects the video I was playing, and the I must search the catalogue to find it, restart it, and re-watch the commercials if any to re-cue it to the last viewing spot.
5) I dont really appreciate the default favorites or new episodes listed. That is not needed.
6) There are no right click menus? Odd. At the least I would like to be able to right click a video file to pull up information on it. In fact, I would like any method of looking at files information. This goes hand in hand with the general lack of user options throughout the program.
7) Last one for now, but a big one. Why in the world would AMP not support more video formats? I, like most computing people, horde all kinds of different media files in my various libraries. If AMP cant play them it has a big disadvantage to all of the other ubiquitous media players out there.
Thats it for starters. Hopefully I will start get more familiar with the program and then find more benefits. Please, add to this thread if you have any thoughts on the AMP.

1. Ability to skip forward (fast forward) through a video or rewind video.
2. Point AMP to a set of folders containing personal videos I want to watch in AMP. Right now, if I have a series of videos that form one full course, I have to eliminate the previous course videos so they do not get mixed in with the new course videos.
3. Ability to go back to where I was in the video when the Internet goes down (or flickers) rather than play from beginning.
4. By the way, why are the TV shows going away? This was the No. 1 reason we installed AMP on our multimedia computer!
That is all for now.
Thanks,
edsager
