Lightroom :: Using Photoshop As External Editor
Aug 3, 2013On a 64 bit machine with the 64 bit version of LR installed, evoking Photoshop as external editor still incorrectly opens the 32 bit version of PS, not the 64 bit as used to happen with LR4. One can work around this if one remembers to open the 64 bit version of PS beforehand, but still, this is surely an easy bug to correct.

Jan 22, 2014A couple of weeks ago a weird problem has started ocurring. Photoshop stopped working as an external editor. When I click Edit in Photoshop, Photoshop opens and it seems like it's trying to open the image but then nothing happens. It only works when I export the image as a PSD and open it then. I think I have managed to narrow it down a little because when I click the .dng file in Finder, Photoshop tries to open the file and comes back with an error message saying "Der Vorgang konnte nicht ausgeführt werden, weil das Dateiformatmodul die Datei nicht interpretieren kann" which roughly translates to that the file can't be interpreted. I think there may be something wrong with how Lightroom converts DNG files because I can open older files fine. Funnily enough I can even open some (really just a small percentage) of the current .dngs when I can't open others. I tried reinstalling both Lightroom and Photoshop to no avail. It happens with both Photoshop CS6 and CC.

Jan 1, 2014I have Photoshop CC 32bit and Photoshop CC 64 bit installed on my Windows 7 PC. I want to use the 64 bit version for esternal editing, but my photos from Lightroom 5.3 go to the Photoshop CC 32bit version for external editing. I cannot find a way to change this preference.
Any solution other than uninstalling the Photoshop CC 32 bit version which does not appear to be an option?
Lightroom :: Exporting Keyword Synonyms To Photoshop / External Editor?
May 27, 2012I've gone through a lot of trouble to create keyword lists for use within Lightroom 4, but I'm finding that I lose all of the synonyms I've set on the photo when I export my photo to Photoshop for further tweaks.
Exporting from Lightroom directly properly includes all synonyms, but if I use CTRL-E to open the photo in an external editor, only the defined keywords are exported with the image. It seems unless I do all of my editing within Lightroom, I'm going to lose these synonyms.

Oct 11, 2013Why can we not have Camera Raw open as an external editor from Lightroom? I use all three and to be honest it is a real in the butt importing my images into Lightroom, editing, then exporting as original format, opening in Camera Raw so i can take advantage some of it's new editing tools (which are far superior to lightroom's) then opening the file in Photoshop.
Why do we need all three, shouldn't Lightroom be the Camera Raw program. Also is there a way around having images editted in Photoshop or any external editor from saving the edited file in Lightroom. I do not need the edited file saved in the original directory and part of the catalog... I have already edited it and need it saved into my working directory. We should at least have an option in the preferences or in the "Edit with" dialog box.
Lightroom :: Adding DxO 9 As A External Editor?
Feb 4, 2014I have lightroom 5.3 I want to use DxO 9 from within Lightroom as an external editor, to both convert raw to tiff and make use of the lens corrections. I want to have both Raw files and tifs created by DxO 9 in my catalog. I can do it externally then import both folders after I do the work in DxO or possibly do it within Lightroom using DxO 9 as an external editor. The instructions in the Lightroom help section tell me I can add the program as an available external editor by going to "photo" dropdown and select edit in and then pick the "provided link" which lets me insert a link to DxO 9 but such an option does not appear in lightroom 5.3 as best as I can find. Is it possible to do this or do I just avoid lightroom until I use DxO to create my altered tif files and then import both folders (tiff and NEF raw) into Lightroom. I am in windows 8 pc

Aug 21, 2012PSE 9 linked perfectly with LR but PSE 10 is not. When i go to define external editor in LR4 (version 4.1), it lists Photoshop in the top section but I cannot select it as my external editor when I use "Edit In". It also doesn't link when I select PSE as the "additional" external editor. But I'd prefer it worked as the default because I want to use Topaz as my "additional" external editor.
I am only allowed to choose an additional external editior, not the default external editor. I have looked all over for a way to re-point LR4 to PSE 10.

Mar 11, 2012I have an external photo editor set up so when I choose "edit in" it goes to that editor, not photoshop. I am getting the following error "Unexpected error performing command: bad argument #1 to 'lower' (string expected, got nil)".

This is working as it should in Lightroom 3.6.
Lightroom :: Can't Open Image In External Editor
Oct 28, 2013I'm using Piccure as external editor for LightRoom 5.2. When trying to open image, I get "Image file -psn_0_S784964 doesn't exist", when my original image has different name. Image name is accepted by Piccure as first command line argument. Looks like LightRoom starts Piccure with wrong arguments.
Could it be that LightRoom starts external editor with different syntax then "/Applications/Piccure/Piccure.app/Contents/MacOS/psplugin /pathToFile/imagefile.tiff". Maybe in some cases it adds more arguments, or corrupts existing path to image?

Sep 10, 2012I'm using LR4.1 on Windows 7 64-bit and I'm running into something quite annoying; When I open a jpeg image in an external editor (in my case Nik Software Editors) and I choose to " Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustments" and JPEG file format I end up with a much smaller size, lower quality file before it's even saved by the external editor. I can't seem to find any settings for the jpeg quality and I'm starting wonder if I'm missing something big here...
I have dug through the forums and google searches with no luck. I do prefer to work with RAW but some of the cameras I use only output JPEG and I don't want to make unecessary conversions to TIFF.
Lightroom :: Can 3 External Editor Run On Multiple Selected Images
Apr 20, 2012I'm using LR3.6. Haven't upgraded to 4.1 yet. I created a PS droplet that I want to use in my LR Externa Editor. Everything works fine as far as calling the droplet from LR. However, when I select multiple images in LR, then go to external editor and select "Edit In <droplet name>", wait for the "What do Edit" dialogue box, select "Edit a copy with LR adjustments" and hit "edit", it only takes the very first highlighted image in the selection into PS to run the droplet/actions. Even if I just choose the droplet name as an external editor preset (instead of the "Edit in" option), it still only applies to the first image in the highlighed selection.
On occassions I get lucky and get it to work for multiple images but I can never get it to work again. For instace, I tried it from the Library module (instead of the develop module) and it worked flawlessly. On the next set of images, I could not get it to work again.
I really need to be able to run this over night. By the way, I know that I can use the droplet on Export, but I really want to round trip my images from LR to PS and back into LR without having to Export, run droplet and reimport.

Feb 10, 2014I have a filmstrip of 500 plus images. Sometimes I need to "Edit in an external editor" on an image, in my case Elements 11. On selecting, EDIT IN, the original image plus the Elements 11 editied image move along to the end of the filmstrip. I then have to go to LIBRARY module, grid view and move both of these images back to their original location at the filmstrip. That is ok if you only have a few images but time consuming when you have 500 images.
View 1 Replies View RelatedLightroom :: Accepting A Command File As External Editor?
Feb 28, 2013It would be really nice if Lightroom could accept a .bat or .cmd file in the Preferences / External Editing dialog entries instead of only accepting executable names (.exe). This would allow to launch an external editor that needs more arguments than a mere filename on the command line.
Another solution would be to allow us to specify command line arguments directly when defining the external editor entry. For example, after specifying the executable, I'd like to have a field allowing to specify the command line arguments like this
-option1 -option2 <filename> (filename being a macro representing the current image filename).
If this field was left empty, then the default argument would be the filename as usual.
This simple feature would greatly enhance the external editing capabilities. For the moment, when I need this feature, I create a .bat file which I convert to an .exe by using a tool like Bat To Exe Converter. Then I specify this exe in the external editor entry. But it would be much more practical to specify the arguments directly in Lightroom.
