There is an apply auto tone adjustments checkbox in preferences, but it does not work properly. After checking it, some photos still require to click on auto button on the basic panel.

I imported tiff images into Lightroom 4 that were scanned by DigMyPics.com. The color of the images look good on the Windows 7 photo viewer. It looks horrible in Lightroom 4. My monitor is callibrated, the import develop setting is set to "none" , the box is unchecked "apply auto tone adjustments".I think that the windows viewer is showing the accurate color of the scan and LR is not. I don't think DigMyPics would send this awful color.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn camera raw, "apply auto tone adjustments" option in the preferences dialog is not same with the "auto" button on the basic panel, isn't it? Both of them control the same sliders, are there any relationship between them?
View 3 Replies View RelatedYes, I'm probably the only person on the planet that wants this, but I liked how the Auto Tone auto adjusted the Exposure slider (ONLY!) and left all the other sliders at zero in the Lightroom 4 beta.
Is there a way to write a preset that returns that behavior?
Having just loaded 10,000+ scanned negatives in LR 4.3, I am applying Auto Tone as a starting point for development settings. I have selected all images in Grid View, right-clicked to Develop Settings...Auto Tone. I can then go to the Develop page and Auto Tone is shown in every images History.the Auto button is still visible and I can click on it and get different [generally better] settings.
Is there a reason why Auto Tone applied to multiple photos produces different development settings from when it is applied individually to each photo?
is there any way to prevent lightroom 4 to apply auto settings to the image after it is returned from treatment in a plugin? Typically, I would launch SFX or other plugins from LR4 by specifying "submit a copy of the image with LR adjustments". When finished, the result image is returned to LR4 and auto settings are applied to it, as if it was freshly imported. This is very annoying. I have every time to reset all settings manually (exposure, whites, blacks, etc) one by one. Is there a way to treat plugin returns differently from importing images from a disk/card?

View 1 Replies View RelatedTrying to color correct skin tones using curves in CMYK, but seem to either have false cyan reading via eyedropper or something just as strange is at hand.
The end result when trying to keep cyan at a third of yellow's count - as in Lee Varis Skin book - is too much red.
This is truly baffling as how can Photoshop give such a wrong reading or what am I doing wrong?
I am trying to use the local adjustments brush in LR and it keeps disappearing and just basically not working. I'm running LR4 and Mac Lion OS.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn LR 3.4 I had no problem applying this smart collection onto a specific folder from the library by simply selecting the collection and then pression CTRL (on windows) while I click the folder in question .. that would filter all those photos that I've edited in LR for that folder.
That isn't the case in LR 4.3.
Right now this smart collection is saying I've got 8683 such photos in the collection, and trying the above method to filter just those edited in a specific folder in the library, simply shows all 8683 photos from my entire library.
I use to be able to edit a copy with lightroom adjustments when I sent my photo to CS5. It is no longer working. how can I recover that function?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhile editing two very similar photos and using the CS6 auto-tone command, one of the photos photoshop was able to truly fix up while the other barely changed. Here is the example:
Photo A was very blue and dark; the auto-tone command magically fixed it up to have nice color variation in the rock and made it brighter. Here is the before/after:
On the other hand, photo B didn't work out the same way; the auto-tone command barely did anything, even though I thought both photos looked to have very similar problems (blue, dark, etc).Here are the links to the full original photo A and photo B in case they are useful...
how can I achieve on photo B the same effect that auto-tone did for photo A! Is there any way to find out what adjustments auto-tone made?
Every time I try to use Auto Smart Tone, it shuts down the program
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have the latest LR 4.1 on a Mac. I'm working on a catalog of 3002 images. I've flagged some that I wanted to retouch. Then the retouched one, I give them the 5 star status. So, when I work, I just turn on the FLAGGED filters to see the pictures I previsouly selected. Now, I wanted to go back to ALL my image. So, I thought it would have been as easy as selecting: FILTERS OFF at the bottom right menu in the LIBRARY MODULE, but that doesn't change much. Acutally, I think it doesn't change anything. So, I thought, ok, I'll turn the little switch next to the FILTER menu. I see then FILTERS OFF. That doesn't change a thing ! So, I know I have 3000 images, but I'm stuck inside a catalog that doesn't allow me to see them (?) I realized that by pressing the little flags next to this menu, it gives me 3 options:
- FILTER BASED ON FLAG STATUS
- FILTER BASED ON FLAG STATUS (UNFLAGGED ONLY)
- FILTER BASED ON FLAG STATUS (REJECTED ONLY)
But none seems to really get seeing all my picture, flagged and unflagged one.
How can I just see all the photos, flagged and unflagged together ?
I have set the camera default to a single image in Develop tab all zeroed out then save the profile. Restart Lightroom but the the images are always auto exposed with extreme Exposure ect...
I tried to revert back to defaults but this also does not work and all my images end up Auto exposed.
How do I clear this from Lightroom 4.4?
We have a bunch of shots taken using natural light - the shots all have completely different exposure and white balance adjustments.
Now that the shots feel like they've been shot at the same time of day (and on the same day) we'd like to start adjusting the white balance accross multiple shots - but use the current white balance/exposure from each individual shot as the starting point - not reset the adjustments.
Kind of like baking the current settings or making adjustments on top of current adjustments - or make new adjustments relative to the current adjustments.
Is it simply a way to condense screen real estate to manage a lot of images -- especially ones shot for HDR, for example, which are varying exposures of the same view? I would love to see an analysis of the meta data to create smart stacks suitable for panoramic merging or HDR depending on how they were shot. Then the next logical request would be for a Process the Stacks in Photoshop, thus automating this process.

(there is an underbar below the A in the dialog box).
I have successfully saved my file, shut down Photoshop without incident, and yet upon opening CS6 it starts opening the latest autorecovery file. I need to have autorecovery on for the work loss protection it provides, but it can get confusing to have an Autorecovery file open instead of the file I had meant to open. ( This is also happening on a colleague's computer.)

It's happened several times with a variety of files. They are all Grayscale layered PSB's, in the 1.5 - 3 GB range.
For some reason when I clip an adjustment to a layer, it doesn't work. Before I clip it though, it works fine, it's only when I clip it to a specific layer, it just instantly removes the adjustment and fails to work. (By this I mean it looks like everything is working fine, with the exception that nothing has changed.) For example, I add a brightness adjustment to a photo, but as soon as I clip it to a layer it just reverts back to before and the layer is clipped. Any adjustments I make while it is clipped doesn't work.

None of the above work [as expected] any more. I think this happened after the 6.3 Update.To replicate the problem:
1. Fire up CorelDRAW
2. Draw a closed shape and fill it with a color of your choice.
3. Open any of the above effects mentioned in the first post.
4. Try moving any of the sliders and see what happens. (Try with both the preview button locked and unlocked.)
I am sure you will notice what I mean. Surprisingly, they all work as usual, once you convert the vector object to a bitmap!
CS6 (Design & Web Premium)! Beautiful interface with terrific power. Just updateded from CS4.
ISSUE in PS CS6:
When I'm retouching with a tool (like the clone tool) consecutively (maybe 7-12 times), I get a "bink" sound, as if the tool has locked up. I can't use hot keys (keyboard short cuts) to undo, resize or resample without getting this "bink" sound. I've clicked on the "move" tool then select the cloning tool (with my mouse) but that only works for 1 more spot.
The "bink" continues for any other hot key (keyboard short cut) operation. I don't want to purge history until I'm completely finished. Quitting / relauncing PS clears this but only until I use the tool consecutively a few times again. What is causing that and how do I fix it?
I'm a power user with 300 images to retouch on a very tight deadline. Eeeeep.Keyboard short cuts are my salvation.
I am trying to create an animated GIF banner. The banner consist of 2 text layers and several pictures. The text layers remain fixed, only the pictures change.
I have 8 frames and each frame should have following visibility: background, textlayer 1 and 2, [picture] layer X and Xcopy (b.t.w. each picture layer and the belonging copy layer have the same picture and properties).
Now when I change the visibility from frame 1: background, textlayer 1 and 2,layer 2 and 2copy to frame 2: background, textlayer 1 and 2, layer 3 and 3copy and so forth, the visibility of one of the layers in the other frames changes automatically. Photoshop changes one of the visible layers in frame one to layer three and dismisses the chosen layer 2.
I tried merging the X and Xcopy layers, that caused one of the layers not being visible any more leaving me with half the picture. Linking the layers had no effect wht so ever.how I can prevent photoshop from changing the frames i.e. fixing the visibility of each frame?
I have problems withe the cursor: it is a cros. I try in preferences to set it to another, or a standard cursor. I then close and restart te CS6. No way to get a normal cursor.
I installed the CS6 a few days ago and this problem is there sinds then.hkank you for an answer,
I am using Mac OSX 10.8.3 and can view a font "Curlz MT" in my font book and use it in applications such as Photoshop, Illustrator etc.
If I use finder to find the font, no luck, it is also not stored in Library>Fonts. I am trying to see if I can use it in @fontface for use in website but cant seem to find it on my system.
I am having issues with my newly installed Photoshop CS5. Most of my keyboard functions are not working, as if Photoshop did not recognize that keys were eing pressed.
When creating a new document or saving a file, I cannot type anything into the document name field. Same happens when trying to create a new folder to save in.No tool shortcuts work (M for marquee, B for brush, V for move, etc.). On-canvas brush changes ([ and ] for size, { and } for hardness) also do not work.Most regular shortcuts do work (Cmd+Z, Cmd+S, etc.) but "advanced" shortcuts do not work (Cmd+Alt+Z, Cmd+Shift+Z, etc.).
I used Photoshop CS4 before with no problems. Other Adobe programs (Dreamweaver, Flash, Acrobat, etc.) are working normally.
am using Photoshop CC and just the other day my gradient tool started acting strange - when I go to apply a gradient on a layer or a layer mask, I will drag the gradient and then if I try to drag it from a different angle to add to it, it erases what I've done and starts a new gradient from that angle. I've never had this issue, is there some setting I need to have adjusted?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been using liquify to make minor adjustments to slim down people in photos and up to now it has always worked fine. Today I try to do the same just to make the arms of the girls (attached) a little trimmer and liquify tool refuses to allow slight corrections bit by bit. Instead as soon as you start dragging just a tiny amount it makes a huge jump and drags the pixels massively off. It seems to drag them down first, then make them in a roughly circular shape the size of the cursor.
How can I rest liquify tool to how it was? Why it should suddenly change like that unless I have tripped something by mistake. I thought at first it might be my mouse but I have tried it with mouse, tablet and trackpad all separately wtih nothing else in the USB and still the same result. Have rebooted photoshop and the computer too to no avail.
