Phil Crean Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Some great stuff there! Has anyone on here updated yet? Any bugs/issues found? I'm reluctant to update for a day or two as I've got a bit of editing to do and don't want to risk any unwanted/unforeseen issues...😉 Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an option to keep the older software in any case. I have had a quick look at the object selection tool and it looks interesting. Not had time to have a detailed look yet. Lightroom uses a new catalog structure so has to convert the older catalog. I have had no issues doing this - I made a backup of the older catalog files (.lrcat) before proceeding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustydingo Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) Quite a few improvements: The selection output, although a little easier to get there, still needs the refine edge for anything other than the smoothest of edges, so it's not earth-shattering in that regard. I still prefer a bit more control than the auto feature the video concentrates on. However, the enhanced "converting smart objects to layers function really is brilliant. Rotating brush tips is very cool, as is "close others" . . . The new flexibility of adjustment layers in conjunction with one-click pre-sets is impressive. The new power in 'warp' is impressive too, and the more powerful content-aware 'repair' function . . . if they're your things so to speak I guess for future-proofing and accessing your images from any computer, and certainly for online collaboration (said feature pending at the moment), the save-to-cloud function could be a real game-changer for many. I don't think folk with older versions of PS should worry too much, unless they do use layers and smart objects a lot or have a need for saving-to-cloud. Having said that, I'm impressed DD Edited November 5, 2019 by dustydingo changed "shouldn't" to "should" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for me the movements between the tools is too quick - it is all too speeded up for my slow brain. Just a comment. Not a complaint. My problem.

MDM Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 For something a bit more mellow try Adobe's very own Juleanne Kost . There is a mass of material both video and written at the above link, including info about the recent Photoshop and Lightroom updates. She has loads of really excellent bite-sized video tutorials, explains things really well at a sensible pace and a pleasant speaking voice thrown in. In fact her voice could become a little soporific, especially if you haven't had enough sleep like me right now zzzzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Rooney Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 God, yes! Why are so many presenters speaking so rapid fire? Slow down and repeat the core of the information three times! Give the step-by-step and avoid tangents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can change playback speed. Click the "cog" symbol (settings), then change "Playback Speed" to your liking. Try setting it from normal to 0.75. I didn't know it could be done either and it really works. wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get a bit more time.😀 Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
