I am using Lightroom 5. In the Develop mode, is there a way to add a metadata item to a panel. I shoot with several cameras and the way I process an image depends on the camera I used. I would like to add the "Camera Model" to the Histogram panel just under the ISO, Lens length, f stop, and shutter speed. Now I must flip back and forth between Library and Develop to get the information.
View 2 RepliesThis may be related to other imported catalog bugs, but does not seem to be quite the same. In Lightroom 4, with an upgraded Lightroom 3 catalog:
1. Select a photo in Library mode.
2. Click on Develop to go to Develop mode
Screen shows "No photo selected". I cannot edit photos in Develop mode.
I can see and edit photos that are found in smart collections, but not photos that are simply in my collections from 2012, 2011, etc. folders
In Lightroom 3, how do I customize the metadata panel, so I can organize the fields however I would like? It is a hassel to have to scroll through all the fields to get to the ones in which I have to import data.

Lightroom Version 4
(downloading update to 4.2 as I write this)
I'm attempting to add a caption to a few images while in "Library" mode.
The help file directs me to do it with the 'metadata panel' . I don't see it in my current display so going to "Windows/panels/metadata" and click that. But nothing happens... when I open the menu again I see no check mark in front of "metadata"
I also tried going to "Develop" mode and then using "Windows/panels/metadata", but again checking that does nothing.
Trying the KB combination Ctrl + 4 appears to do nothing as well.I may just not be recognizing the panel when I see it, but I've found nothing that says "metadata" on the current lightroom display window when in library mode.
Possibly I'm in some mode that is preventing the metadata panel from displaying, so tried closing and reopening LR. But closing and reopening appears to have worked not one whit.
How can I define my own set of metadata to be displayed in the metadata panel. I don't mean metadata sets to be applied to images. I mean the groups of metadata fields that will be displayed in the right hand panel.
LR came with some like QuickDescribe, Minimal, Default....
Can add the "keywording" panel in the Develop tab?
In my workflow, I rate or tag a photo only after I've made some PP adjustment. So, my workflow would flow better if the "keywording" tab resided in the Development tab as well. Is this possible? Can you add a panel from another tab?
I'm using macs running mountain lion. I've updated two computers to Lightroom 4.2. One shows the new form for the basic panel of the develop module, e.g., including the brightness slider. The other installation reverted to the Lightroom 3 panel, and I can't find a preference that affects this.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to take advantage of a FULL SCREEN to see my images.However, the panel with all the controls takes up about 1/6 of the real estate.I know the panel can be auto hidden, but I hate that workflow.
I would love to put the panel on a separate monitor leaving just the image full screen on the other.
I can't seem to find a way to display the Metadata panel that is supposed to be located near "keywords," etc. in the right panel in the Library Module. I have the Histogram, Quick Develop, Keywords, etc. but nothing after Keywords. I've looked through <Editpreferences> and <View> but can't seem to find anything there.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just purchased Lightroom 5.2 and am trying to edit without success. In the Develop panel, I can see and use any of the edit adjustments/sliders on the right. The edits are visible in the small photo in the filmstrip area at the bottom of the page but no changes occur to the main screen image as they are applied. Behavior is the same regardless of file type (.jpg or .NEF).
The photos will accept edits in the Library panel (quick edits) and apply/display them to the main screen image.
where is the basic panel in the develop module. I have non!!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recenlty upgraded from Lightroom 3 to Lightroom 5.3 with no problems. However, now after 3 weeks of use, my entire 'basic' panel in Develop has disappeared. I no longer have Wb tool, or any sliders for temp, tint, exposure, black, white, shadows, clarity, etc. If I am going to lose a panel, I don't want it to be this one!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was really hoping that the Quick Develop panel in the Library Module which I sometimes use if there are minor touchups needed to a photo would have been redesigned to more closely resemble and work like the Basic panel in the Develop Module. Certainly sliders instead of those arrow buttons would be a very useful change.
Why this wasn't changed?
I was editing a photo in Lightroom 5 the other day, and I thought I hit something, but all of a sudden the basic panel was missing. Suggestion was to right click on one of the panels and it should have an option that says basic, in order to get the basic panel back. That is what I did, but what it does is just opens and closes the panels. I don't know how to get my basic panel back.

I just updated Lightroom to version 3.4 and now I can not find the folders panel in the Develop module. It's in the Library module but not in the Develop module. There is not even a right click option for a folders panel under the Develop module. What happened???
View 3 Replies View RelatedNot all the time, but there are times when i am working on an image, generally after I've been working on it in Photoshop. Once it comes back into light room and I want to do just about anything to it everything goes dark and comes back with the adjustment I just made. Does this when I move the slider or make any adjustment to the image whatsoever.
