Lightroom :: Virtual Copies In LR4 - Page Turn Icon / Copies Not Appearing?

Jan 13, 2013

I am having an issue that cropped up as of late - I try to create a virtual copy of a photo, but instead of the normal page-turn icon in the bottom left and it auto-expanding to show the copies, it just creates a stack, and says "2" or "1 of 2" and the double line bars on both sides of the preview in Grid Mode. Is there a setting that I changed that caused that?

Lightroom :: Virtual Copies Are Invisible In 4.3

Dec 15, 2012

When I create virtual copies, the total number of instances of the image goes up but I don't see any of the virtual images. I unstack and it shows they're unstacked and "1 of 2" but I still can't see the other. I've turned off all filters and still nothing.It was happening in 4.3rc and is still happening in 4.3. It is only present in certain catalogs.

Lightroom :: Virtual Copies Not Visible

May 30, 2013

1. Made virtual copies, count goes up, can't see them in grid in library, develop, or in loupe.  Thought they were stacked, but when I went to Photo>stacking> the rest is all grayed out...can't do anything.  "set as master copy" also grayed out,.  Read somewhere "preferences for lightroom might be corrupt"????   I tried to do the thing in the library to correct the preferences,:(on moubntain lion 10.8.3), but in the user file there is no library...so I then looked up how to find the hidden library, but I can't  find the stuff to do THAT!!!  And, there IS a library on my hard drive, but when I open THAT up, there isn't anything about preferences.
 
I JUST bought this 2 mos ago--how can it have corrupt preferences when I only just started using it???--used it once, then discovered diddn't have right processor in old computer...bought a new computer...took several weeks to get (bought increased ram)...now I am just using for first time today.  Started importing, but they are all coming up missing photoi (when I had lightroomn installed on old computer, I deleted uit and pics), then reinstalled and it was migrated over to this new computer.  I looked up how to massive transfer missing photos and there is NO folder with a question mark, so I have to do hundreds and hundreds manually--can I tell you I am really hating LR4.4?

Lightroom :: Virtual Copies Naming

Nov 13, 2012

When I created a virtual copy of an image in LR3, and then I renamed the images, the virtual copies would have the new name with a hyphen.i.e if there were two virtual copies associate with the file, the renamed sequence would be as follows jcp0001, jcp0001-1(vc), jcp0001-2(vc), jcp0004
 
This had the advantage of keeping my file numbers in sync when I uploaded them to my online lab (Pictage) and the client gave me a file name. In LR4 renaming sequencing doesn't take into account the virtual copies in terms of the chronological # and compensating for the vcs. So the same sequence would be jcp0001, jcp0001-copy(vc), jcp0001-copy2(vc), jcp0002..This has the affect of misalignment my files with those of the online host.

Lightroom :: How To Make Virtual Copies Of Photographs

May 23, 2012

I am currently making virtual copies of all my photographs converting them to black & white I am then choosing which one to keep. If I keep the original no problem, I can remove the virtual copy however if I choose the virtual copy I have to keep the original copy or export the virtual one. Is there a way I can make the original the virtual copy and the virtual the original. As things stand I have loads of photos showing in lightroom that I do not want.

Lightroom :: Editing Virtual Copies In Photoshop CC

Nov 30, 2013

I can't determine if I've encountered a bug or operator oversight. From within LR 5.2 I opened an adjusted [NEF] file in PSCC (not as a smart object) and added adjustment layers, etc. With file still open in PS, I returned to LR, made a virtual copy, changed LR adjustments, and attempted to "Edit in..." I simply get referred back to the existing canvas. I'd like to work with both, side by side, and save when I'm ready.

Lightroom :: Importing Virtual Copies From Another Catalogue?

Lightroom :: Export Catalog - Virtual Copies

Sep 5, 2013

If you export a group of photos as a Catalog, does this export all virtual copies including their own repsective xmp data? I need to send a batch of RAW files to someone but need them to be able to see all the virtual copies as well.

Lightroom :: How To Find Virtual Copies In Smart Collections

Mar 20, 2014

Is there any way to find virtual copies in smart collections without using "copy name is not empty" ? Basically I am trying to use copy name as a version number for all images, include the base image which is the original. But this then makes it difficult to find the actual copies themselves.

Lightroom :: Cannot Find Virtual Copies In Windows Folder

Jul 29, 2012

I can not remember to have encountered this before, so here I go: I just created a virtual copy of some photos from my summer holiday, and all works well. But when I needed to access these photos going the Windows' way (Windows/My Pictures that is), the virtual copies do not appear in my YYYYMM folder. Going back to LR though, they will appear there with a /Copy 1 extension. RIghtclicking the VC, then "Show in Explorer" will highlight the original in the folder, the VC still not being there. Part of the frustration is that I can not remember this happening before (or maybe it has), so I'm wondering if I by accident have changed any settings.

Lightroom :: Virtual Copies Didn't Import With Images

Jan 11, 2012

I imported a large group of images from last October and 14 of them had virtual copies created from them, mainly the final copies of images I was using. When imported into a new catalog I created in Lightroom 4 beta, only the raw files came over, not the virtual copies. I do notice that they have all been updated to the 2012 process and I did not tell it to do that. I need to remove and reimport them? This could be a big problem for me as I really like to use Virtual Copies.

Lightroom :: Applying Individual Filenames To Virtual Copies?

Lightroom :: EXIF Data Not Updated In Virtual Copies

Mar 9, 2012

My cameras have, over the years, misidentified a few lenses in EXIF. Most notably Sigma lenses, but naturally also older optics without built-in electronics.
 
I use Exiftool to rectify this, and then re-import metadata from file within LR. It works like a breeze both DNG, TIFF and JPG, but for the life of me I can't get those changes effected in existing Virtual Copies.
 
System details:
LR version: 3.6
OS: Windows Vista Ultimate x64

Lightroom :: How To Get Additional Virtual Copies And PSD Files To Register In Collection

Mar 23, 2014

I accidentally resume my photo editing from the "folder" location instead of the "collection" location.  So now when I go back to my collection, none of the virtual copies and PSD files created are there.  The physical folder location has more files than the collection because of the extra PSD files.
 
I even tried to "Import" from the same folder location to see if LR would pickup the new virtual copies and PSD files.  But the crazy thing is LR does not register any "new photos". 
 
how to get the additional virtual copies and PSD files to register in my collection?

Lightroom :: Catalog - Virtual Copies Not Properly Linked To Master

Jan 26, 2012

A small set of 36 images in a  catalog of 12500 are behaving strangely and virtual copies do not appear to be linking to masters correctly.
 
Difficult to remember exactly the steps taken but including
 
- adding initial selection of 100+ masters to Quick Collection
- adjusting selection using colour flagging, star rating, and rejected photo marking
- creating virtual copies of 35 images 4 star picks
- adding virtuals to other manual collection
- apparent duplicate virtuals appearing when I don't THINK I asked for new virtuals in collection but must have done
- flagging duplicate virtual copies as rejected
- editing 1 image in photoshop twice
- various other editing post process
 
Anyway I now see in the Library panel that 35 master photos, the 2 photoshop files, and 1 of the vitrual copies are indicated as being 1 of 38, 2 of 38, etc. The virtual copies of all but 1, which was added at a later stage, do not indicate being 1 of 2 although the file name is _MG_9999/Copy 1 or Copy 2 varying from image to image. The images are sequencing the 38 "linked" photos first, then the virtuals and that 1 late master when the sort sequence is Capture Time or File Name.
 
Every thing is there but the reported linkage is obviously wrong and this worries me and I'd like to correct it if I can. The catalog is backed up every time Lightroom closes but as I have been opening and closing several times a day and did not recognise when this corruption happened I don't really want to be loading up a succession of backups and losing post process changes or causing other damage. I have just realised that I do NOT have Automatically write to XMP checked in catalog settings although I was meant to have.
 
I did export the folder of 1413 that the masters were selected from to another catalog and resynched. Didn't expect much and didn't get anything.

Lightroom :: Delete Folder Containing Master Image And Its Virtual Copies From LR4 Catalog?

Jun 6, 2013

I have created virtual copies of an image in Lightroom 4 and I am wondering what will happen to these if I delete the folder containing the master image and its virual copies from the LR4 catalog? Will the virtual copies be automatically deleted? If so, is this reversible in any way? Will i recover these virual copies if I add the folder back into LR's catalog later on?
 
Also will Adobe Bridge be able to read these virtual copies in both before and even after the folder has been removed from LR4? Or is the 'virtual copy' functionality specific to LR and that the only way to preserve it is to keep the original image within LR and never delete it?

Lightroom :: Possible To Do Identical Photoshop Brush-type Edit On Two Virtual Copies?

Feb 8, 2013

I took a promo portrait of a book author that needs to be in color and b&w depending on where it will be used (b&w on the book sleave, color on a flyer, etc). I have a vitual copy for the b&w image which has different contrast settings, otherwise they are identical. Normally I only have one photo to deal with if I need to use Photoshop, and it's aways my last step.  This is a little different in that if I don't want to adjust the contrast on the edit, I will have to eyeball the same brush strokes both copies, which will never exactly match.  Is there any way to do an identical  Photoshop "Liquify" edit on both?

Lightroom :: How To Force Snapshots And Virtual Copies To Read Metadata From Original Raw File

Mar 11, 2012

Is there any way to force Snapshots and Virtual Copies to read metadata from the original raw file after an update of the same?

I had to change the lens name on some Leica M9 files to correct an operator (me) error, and I did it by editing the exif data with an exif editor and then forcing LR4 to read the metadata from the file. This worked well for everithing but the snapshots and the virtual copies on which the metadata remain as originally registered, unchanged.

Lightroom :: How To Display Virtual Copies To Respect Sort Order With Different Capture Times

Oct 11, 2013

Scanning old photographs, with multiple photos in each scanned image.  I've created a virtual copy for each individual photograph and then crop appropriately.  However, photographs have different dates and I want to be able to sort them chronolgically.  Ideally I'd set the Capture Time on each virtual copy and use that as the Sort order, but LR doesn't separate images co-joined in a Virtual set, so to speak.  It seems like it looks at the Capture Time of the Master copy of a virtual set.
 
The only way I can see how to do this is to export, re-import into a different catalogue, and then apply Capture Time metadata.  This is quite a cumbersome workaround.  I'd like to do this all in the same catalogue...also exporting / importing re-compresses the image and would like to avoid that.
 
how to sort on date with virtual copies?

Lightroom :: Color Change When Exported?

Jun 22, 2012

Using Lr4.1 on PC w/ win7pro laptop with external NEC multisync mmonitor-calibrated,  I've taken Raws made LR adjustments, then imported 3-10 images into photoshop layers for masking, merges, few if any color changes.  Then save as all layers as a psd, then flatten the psd and save as a tiff.  When I open in LR for any other minor tweaks, sharpening, dust spots, and do an export into SRGB or Adobe rgb, the colors are terrible.  Look nothing like what I see in LR.  I've heard people have minimal issues, but I am having major changes,  many times the collors will become dull and flat or very saturated when viewed.  As an architectural photographer I need these colors close to what I took.   If I edit in CR into PS I don't have this problem.  I assume its related to the prophoto RGB color changing, but I really don't know what's going on with the color space.  The color will appear different from my laptop monitor to the NEC by a lot which I understand a pro monitor will show more colors, but the color space shift is making a lot of work done in LR useless if I have to redo it all in CR.  How can I get LR to export the colors I see in LR into a srgb jpg and Adobe tiff?

GIMP :: When Exported Elsewhere GIF Color Is Lost

Apr 17, 2013

I'm trying to put a GIF into a Kindle book. The GIF itself looks great, and I'm pretty darn good at formatting books if I do say so myself.

For some reason, the black in my GIF images are becoming transparent once loaded to a Kindle mobi file. Now I've used GIFs from Gimp like this before, so it doesn't really make any sense... I've not done anything (as far as I know) to make it transparent, and it's definitely not transparent in the GIF itself.

I tried changing the color of the text, but that hasn't made any difference, so I'm led to believe it's something I'm doing wrong with the text tool, but what that could be.

Lightroom :: Importing Copies Of Photos?

Mar 9, 2012

I am using Lightroom 3 on a Mac OS. I wanted to download "Focus Magic", but apparently that is an impossibility. I installed it on my PC, on which also have LR3, made the adjustments I wanted in "focus Magic", then copied them to a disc. When I go to copy them into LR on my Mac, it won't allow it, as the photos "already exist" on the system. I have also tried this on different occasions for different reasons with the same result.
