Whites slider not in graduated filter and adjustment brush in ACR 7

the whites option is missing from the graduated filter and adjustment brush

The Exposure slider adjusts your white point, as it did in ACR6

  • The Graduated Filter and Adjustment Brush in Lightroom 4 | The Complete Picture with Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV

    In this episode of The Complete Picture, discover the power of making selective adjustments like dodging and burning, color corrections and noise removal using the Graduated Filter and Adjustment Brush in Lightroom 4. Note: although this video was recorded in Lightroom, the same techniques are available in Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop CS6.

  • Graduated filter and Adjustment brush always use "last used effect"

    In my workfow I mostly use opposite effects in the Graduated filter and Adjustment brush.
    Lightroom maintains "least used effect" even when changing tools.
    Is it possible that each tool retains its last used effect?
    In my workflow I mostly use opposite effects when using Adjustment brush en gradient filter. Changing the effects wastes a lot of time when editing hundreds of images.

    I agree that it would be nice if the individual tools remembered their own last used preset.
    Unfortunately LR does not work that way.

  • Noise reduction function built into built into graduated filter and adjustments brush!

    Really useful functionality, but maybe the tool name shout be "Noise reduction" rather than "noise" for the graduated filter and adjustments brush.  If I understand it correctly, the way all the sliders work now is that that movement to the left decreases the function of the slider, and to the right increases the function - if that is the case, then by labelling the slider "noise" would suggest that moving to the right is increasing the noise when in fact it is the reverse!

    The explanation is that "noise reduction" doesn't fit the available space in all languages.

  • Increments Of 100 With Grad Filter and Adj Brush Using Scroll Wheel and Arrows

    For Vista 64 bit and Nvidia GeForce 8500 GT driver version 7.15.11.6960,
    both the graduated filter and adjustment brush change at increments of 100 or 200 using the scroll wheel or arrows for everything except exposure. Brightness goes from -200 to 0 to 200 while the others go from -100 to 0 to 100.

    Seen that as well. Keyboard focus has been an issue for me on Vista x64 OS for quite sometime.Sometimes the arrows don't move in even increments on all the sliders for various adjustments.
    In this case the arrow keys move either side of 0 to the maximum exent of the range. In this case brightness has a range of + or - 200 while the other sliders move = or - 100

    Set Flow and Density of the brush to 100
    Reduce it where you want the effect to blend.

  • Can't apply Graduated Filter and Radial Filter in LR5 (photo becomes grey box)

    Hi,
    I am using the Lightroom 5, every functions are working fine, except the Graduated Filter and Radial Filter casuing me a problem.
    When I click on the Graduated Filter / Radial Filter button, and trying to apply the filter (i.e. draw the eclipse) on my photo, my photo in the central pane immediately turns grey, as per below screenshot.
    I have to click the Library Module and then click Develop Module in order to get back the photo showing in the central pane, but the same problem appears if I tried to use the Graduated and Radial Filters.
    Anybody knows the root cause and solution ? Please kindly help. Thank you !

    The easiest thing should be to simply apply the preset to an image, then choose to Update with Current Settings and make sure Graduated Filter is unchecked. Move through all of your presets like this.
    I don't know how many suspect presets you have to go through, but you can also manually edit them with a simple text editor to remove the Graduated filter. If you right-click on the preset, you can show in Explorer/Finder. Open the file in Notepad/TextEdit and simply remove the GradientBasedCorrections section (this has many sub-fields, most of which start with "Local"). Save the file and move on to the next.

  • Will LR get the new brush feature added to the graduated filter and radial filter like the latest version of Camera raw?

    Will LR get the new brush feature added to the graduated filter and radial filter like the latest version of Camera raw?

    OK, at least I can look forward to it and use Photoshop & CR instead of LR for these filters until then.
    Thanks

  • 2.1 and Adjustment Brush Prob Return

    Ironically, after having fixed adjustment brush lag and slider sluggishness by maximizing performance in the Nvidia 3d settings, installing 2.1 has caused the problem to return.
    The problem was completely resolved before. I could rapidly paint large areas of D300 images with repeated strokes, or with one extended very rapid uninterrupted stroke back and forth across an area stretching from side to side and representing about one third of the screen.
    Before upgrading there was absolutely no lag or subsequent sluggishness in the amount slider no matter how hard I tried to induce it. Now, the slider sluggishness is as bad as before.
    I have tested this by resetting half a dozen of the same images that I worked the brush on prior to the upgrade to RC 2.1 and performing the same actions with the brush as described above. I have 2.0 installed on the other side of my dual boot windows Intel 9550 Quad and there is no lag on that side with the same images and adjustment brush use described above.
    There is no doubt that the problem is back.
    Has anyone who had 2.0 adjustment brush problems tested 2.1 yet?

    LR2.1 not stable for me. XPS630, 4G, XP Pro, nVidia 8600,
    LR 2 worked fine.
    Adjustment brush (using Wacom or mouse) doesn't lift reliably and leaves streaks.
    Brush at times will activate zoom instead of painting an adjustment.
    Brush won't stop editing session - can't start new brush - no edit control point for previous adjustment brushes
    Have restarted LR2.1 numerous times, rebooted, etc.
    I'm going back to 2.0 tomorrow.

  • Lightroom 4 - Spot removal and adjustment brush issues

    In Lightroom 4, my spot removal and adjustment brush tools will not work on all areas of photos (in particular faces and the center of photos). The cursor seems to show the tool only on the outside portions of the photo.  Any suggestions?

    I have seen this a couple time and a restart of Lr has always fixed it.  It seems like there is some kine of dialog box waiting for input "hidden" behind Lr as it its not there if you minimize Lr.  This has been reported many times for a LONG time so it is probably one of the Lr bugs that is not getting fixed.  To be fair to Adobe, if someone could reproduce this problem it might get fixed but it seems to be pretty obscure.  BTW, I think Ihave seen reports of it in Lr5 also so hopefully it will get fixed in Lr 6

    Recently downloaded a trial version of CC and when trying to use the Adjustment Brush in ACR it brings up the message 'All the local adjustment controls are set to have no effect on the image'. I've downloaded this as an update to CS5 on my new i Mac. Would appreciate suggestions to remedy this. Rhonda

    I think it means "the sliders are all 0 so painting adjustments with this brush won't change anything."  In other words, move one of the sliders to a non-zero position, for example Exposure from 0 to 1.0, and then see what happens.  You can edit the brush and change it to do something other than Exposure +1.

  • Can I Move the Anchor Point for Adjustment Brush in ACR CS5

    It's never been a problem before, but the anchor point for the Adjustment Brush in ACR is sitting exactly where I need to see what is happening.  I can delete and start again, but if there is way to move or hide the anchor point while stil being able to adjust the setting, it would be handy to know for next time it happens.

  • White Screen Not Codec Issue, AV Controls Adjustment

    I have installed Quicktime 7.1 Player, Upgraded to Pro. When viewing files in the stand alone player (MOV,AVI, MP4), the video is all white. Selecting "window" then "show AV controls" and adjusting the video brightness to anything other than the default center position, the video plays clearly. Is there a fix to this issue? Can I save the 'adjusted' brightness so the video isnt always white to begin with?
    Files viewed in Internet Explorer with the plug-in seem ok, this seems to just affect the stand alone player.

    Ok found the answer on a previous post and this worked:
    1. Open the QuickTime Preferences dialog. (On player, select edit then quicktime preferences)
    2. Click on the Advanced tab.
    3. Uncheck "Enable Direct3D video acceleration" (the 3rd checkbox under DirectX).
    4. Click OK.
    5. Close QuickTime.
    6. Try to play the video again. Does it work this time? If not, repeat steps 1 and 2 and try selecting "Safe mode (GDI only)".

  • Can not see Graduated Filter Pin

    Hi,
    I click on Graduated Filter I get the "plus" cursor but no lines or the pin to see what I am doing. The adjustments work but I can not see what I am doing only the effect is noticeable. Is there a toggle to make these visible? I had no problems with the last upgrade until yesterday.
    Thank you,

  • First experiences with LR 5.0: manual file selection and  Adjustment Brush

    I must admit that I have not fiddled too long with LR 5.0. The reason is quite simple: its extreme slowness, even in comparison with 4.4, which is far from being fast. After slightly retouching some 40 images I fell back to 4.4 and finished testing 5.5 for a while. Anyway, in addition to the speed problem I have collected some - also not too promising - experiences:
    After initially retouching the first image I wanted to copy some of its settings into the rest of the photos. Before clicking on the Sync button I had to select all the target files. Probably because of the relatively small number of images, instead of going to the "Edit / Select All" function I used "Shift+Right Arrow" for the selection. LR simply crashed...
    In several cases I was not able to re-open and modify formerly 'adjustment-brushed' areas. When I moved the cursor above the relevant white 'knob-shaped' mark, nothing happened. The cursor did not even change to hand form, so the "Effect" panel remained dark and the formerly set parameters did not come up. As I kept the cursor there for ages and the image was not 'over-adjusted' (as also indicated by the small size of the associated XMP file), this failure was surely not a result of the above-referred slowness.
    Once I selected an already retouched image, with the Adjustment Brush tool open. The existing adjustment mark came up over a formerly brushed area. Then, without doing anything with the open image, I moved to the next picture. To my surprise, the Adjustment Brush marks of both photos appeared on the last opened image - the one, which belonged to the previous picture and another, associated with the second picture. It goes without saying that I was not able to click on any of the Adjustment Brush marks. Closing and re-opening the Adjustment Brush tool did not help, so I had to restart LR.
