Lightroom :: How To Determine Aspect Ratio

Sep 27, 2010

How do you determine the aspect ratio, in LR, of an existing image? I know how to change it, but don't see a way to determine it.

Lightroom :: 4.4.1 (As Shot) Aspect Ratio

Jan 29, 2014

In the Crop tool dailogue box, in general terms, what is the difference between ORIGINAL and AS SHOT aspect ratio. My understanding is, "ORIGINAL" is the imported image aspect ratio from a camera without any cropping being performed in LR. AS SHOT to me, means the same thing i.e. the image is "AS SHOT" from the camera.

Lightroom :: Change Aspect Ratio From 5x7 To 7x5

Sep 16, 2012

In the develop module in LR4, I have been trying to change the aspect ratio of an image before cropping to 7x5, but the crop tool keeps on reverting back to 5x7.  Obviously, I want to crop it to the same paper size but the orientation is just as important.

Lightroom :: 5 - Set Maximum Aspect Ratio When Exporting

Dec 18, 2013

I'm using LR5 and I'm wondering if it's possible (maybe with plugins if necessary) to set a maximum aspect ratio when experting photos. For example I have a picture that I cropped to be a panorama, with an aspect ratio of 26:11. The print shop can print at a maximum aspect ratio of 19:11. So my 26:11 image is too small and I need to add some bars at the top and bottom of my photo to reach an aspect ratio of 19:11 (see also the sketch below). Later, when I get the finished prints, I have to cut the bars at the top and bottom with a pair of scissors for example. Is it possible to let LR automatically add these borders for a given maximum apsect ratio?

Lightroom :: Crop Tool Won't Constrain Aspect Ratio In 4.4

Aug 13, 2013

This is a sudden change of behavior in Lightroom 4.4, Mac OS 10.7.5.
 
In the past, when I chose the crop tool, with the locked icon in the locked position, when I adjusted the crop, the crop was constrained to the original aspect ratio of the photo. Now, no matter what I do, the crop is kind of "partly" constrained.  That is, I start with a vertical image, then drag the crop down so that the crop rectangle has a horizontal aspect ratio, I can drag up on the horizontal crop rectangle so that the original aspect ratio is no longer preserved.  Until the aspect ratio has gone horizontal, the original aspect ratio is preserved.  It doesn't matter if the lock is locked or unlocked, or whether I hold the shift key or not.
 
Here's an example:
 
at this point, the crop is still vertical, with aspect ratio constrained. It's still "as shot" and the padlock icon is locked
 
Here, the crop is now horizontal, but the aspect ratio is still constrained, "as shot" and still the icon is locked.
 
Now, things have gotten wonky.  When the right edge of the crop hits the edge of the photo, it's possible to drag it upwards.  The aspect ration is no longer constrained, and even though the padlock icon is locked the aspect is now "Custom"
 
As I said, this is new behavior which I have never seen since the version of Lightroom included the crop tool (I started at Lightroom 1.0).  Like they all say "I haven't changed anything", but something  obviously has changed.  I don't believe this is correct behavior, or the behavior I've been used to for years.  Is there any way to think this is the correct behavior?
 
I noticed it sometimes happens on some (most) photos, but not all, and will seemingly randomly start/stop working properly on photos that weren't/were working just minutes before.

Also i'm wondering when it comes to export them what size should I be placing if I want to print all sizes. like some 8x10 and some 4x6 and so on. I'm working with Lightroom 3.

Lightroom :: OM-D / How To View Entire 4:3 RAW File When Aspect Ratio Set In-camera To 3:2

Apr 27, 2012

When shooting RAW, the OM-D records 4:3 files no matter what the aspect ratio is set to.  If you set it to 3:2 (for example), the camera records some sort of metadata to communicate this information to Lightroom, which honors the setting.  So far, so good.
 
My question is, is there any way to override that setting? I have a photo shot at 3:2, but I can see from the in-camera preview that it'd be a better shot with the whole thing. But I can't figure out how to get LR 4.1rc2 to show me the whole thing!

Lightroom :: 4.4.1 - Using Images For Slideshow / Set Aspect Ratio 16 X 9 For Viewing On HD Television

Feb 23, 2014

I have an folder with approx 500 photos that have been optimised in the Develop module (aspect ratio set at AS SHOT)  and exported to photo lab for 2 x 3 prints. Now I need to use these same images for a slideshow and set an aspect ratio of  16 x 9  1920 x 1080 for viewing on HD Television. I do not want to change the AS SHOT aspect ratio of these images in the current folder.  so first, this means I need to make a copy of this folder within Lightroom and second, change the aspect ratio to 16 x 9 for all images at the Quick develop module and complete in the slideshow module. The second part is no problem but how do you "copy" a folder of images in Lightroom OR alternatively can you make a virtual copy of a folder?

Lightroom :: Crop Aspect Ratio Not Staying Locked When Cropping

Apr 29, 2013

It seems that with the 4.4 update a bug was introduced with the crop aspect ratio not staying locked when cropping.   It changes to "custom" even though the lock remains. What do I do to maintain a standard photo size and not switch to custom?  For printing purposes, I need the ratio to stay locked and dimensions standard.

Lightroom :: How To Create Slideshow Full Of Photos With Native Aspect Ratio Of 3:2

Dec 2, 2013

I'm using Lightroom 5.2 on a 27-inch iMac running Mavericks. I want to create a slide show full of photos with a native aspect ratio of 3:2 (from a Nikon D4 and a Nikon D800). I do NOT want the photos to be trimmed along the top and bottom, which is what happens when I choose "Zoom to fill frame" in the Slide Show module. I do NOT want letterboxing along the right and left edges of the photo, which is what I get if I don't choose "Zoom to fill frame" and just export the slide show using the "Export Video" button in the lower left of the Slide Show module. ("Export Video" gives me four choices for "Video Preset," but none of the four is a 3:2 aspect ratio.) I just want a slide show of uncropped 3:2 aspect ratio photos with no border around them whatsoever. Considering how many of the photos taken every day on this planet are still in the 3:2 aspect ratio, I find it hard to believe there isn't a way to do this.
 
If for some reason there is no way to create such a slide show in Lightroom, I have Creative Suite 5, iPhoto, and iMovie, but I don't want to buy any new software just for this.

Lightroom :: Lock Aspect Ratio Not Working In 4.4 / When Changing From Portrait To Landscape

Jun 3, 2013

LOCK ASPECT RATIO NOT WORKING! - when working in LR4.4 - if i have the padlock locked in place and the aspect set to "original" - when i press the left mouse button (keep pressed) and then grab a corner to change the crop from portrait to landscape, the aspect changes to "as shot" but does not lock the aspect. even though the padlock remains closed i can go past the normal aspect and make a square or any other shape, and the aspect has now changed to "custom" even though the padlock has remained closed throughout.
 
Desktop recording showing the problem!! URL....why is it so difficult to report a problem to adobe?

VideoStudio :: X4 Rendering With 4:3 Aspect Ratio

Jul 11, 2011

I am currently using a trial version of VS X4 (testing if suitable for our needs) and I am using an instant project that I downloaded in the extras. It was one large picture and then 4 pictures scrolling on the left hand side. I modified it so that I had a background on the main video track, the one large picture a mp4 video captured with Camtasia Studio 7, and three pictures scrolling on the left hand side.

I want to have a 4:3 aspect ratio, as these would be going on a website and need to match previous tutorial videos. The video I put in the overlay track is captured at 1024 x 768 and I have tried a variety of sizes of the back ground, (matching aspect ratio and not) and I cannot seem to find or create a suitable template to create a good quality (I.e. can still read the menus in the window of the screen capture mp4) video. I don't much care what the output type is, as long as it is supported by Camtasia Studio 7 since I render there to create a HTML script, to be used on the website.

VideoStudio :: Can't Keep X3 From Changing The Aspect Ratio

Oct 8, 2010

I am using VS Pro X3.

I have a .mov file in 16:9 ratio. I need to add a picture to the front of the movie so that this image appears in the player I am using when the movie is loaded and ready to play.

EVERY time I try to create the new movie, the movie aspect is reformatted and I get black bars across the top and bottom of my movie. I have been everything I can find in the program - using custom formats and defining the exact dimensions. I must have tried this over a dozen times looking for something stupid that I am missing but I can not figure this out.

The original file is quicktime (.mov) 960X540. If I play this file in my player (its a flash player) it plays clean in the 16:9 aspect with no black borders. I do not care whether the file is .mov, mp4, or flv. The player supports all of these (and a few more common types). This will be web hosted so I am concerned about file size. Step one for me is to get VS to create a movie file in the appropriate aspect ratio without black bars!!!

VideoStudio :: Pro X4 - Aspect Ratio Incorrect?

Jul 3, 2012

I'm having a problem with VideoStudio where it is not correctly detecting the aspect ratio of the video.

The video was created by HandBrake by converting a DVD to an MP4. VLC Player correctly detects the aspect ratio and displays it fine. VS doesn't.

In VS the video is coming up as 4:3 and so when played, it has black pillars on either side.

How can I get VS to interpret the aspect ratio correctly, or even override it?

The video files details (MediaInfo):

General
Complete name : C:TempHandbrakeVts 01 1-2.mp4
Format : MPEG-4
Format profile : Base Media / Version 2
Codec ID : mp42
File size : 230 MiB

VideoStudio :: Changing Aspect Ratio?

Apr 23, 2012

I have VideoStudio ProX4 Ultimate.Purchased before Christmas but this first time I have used it. I created my project,changed the ratio from 16:9 to 4:3. Burned the project and when I played it I could tell it was not in the correct aspect ratio. I went back, opened the project, checked the ratio aspect and it was set at 4:3. I then opened settings and it was at 720x480 29.97 which should be right. After burning I found it was still in wrong ratio. I opened the created file in MediaInfo and it showed it was 16:9 720x480 29.97. Am I missing something? How do I change it to 4:3. I have version 14.2.0.23.

Photoshop :: Aspect Ratio Change?

Jul 11, 2007

I just joined and I'm a complete newbie at Photoshop, though I'm fairly interested in it.

I was wondering if it's possible to change the aspect ratio of a 5:4 (1600x1200) image to 16:10 (1680x1050) without stretching the image or contorting it.

I've tried resizing, but all that does is screw up the image and/or make it look all crappy.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Feb 26, 2008

Since installing Photoshop CS2, whenever I open a file (.tiff), PS selects the incorrect aspect ratio (a custom ratio of 0.5, when in fact the file is meant to have an aspect ratio of 1.0).

1. Is the aspect ratio stored in the file as an attribute, or does Photoshop guess the ratio from some other attribute?

2. Can I force PS to open all files with an aspect ratio of 1.0?

In older versions of Photoshop the files opened correctly. When I open the .tiff in a text editor, I can't find any attribute named 'aspect ratio' or somesuch.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Nov 7, 2008

I'm running Photoshop CS2 (9) on XP pro. I have a bunch of tiffs made from scans of 36" x 48" documents. They all are coming in with a strange distortion. A box pops up: "Pixel aspect ration correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality." I know how to turn it off, but I cannot afford the time to save 144 huge files. Can this default be reset? To reset this default to "square", I have tried everything short of deleting pixel aspect ratios. I never want anything but "square". What will it hurt to delete pixel aspect ratios?
