Adobe Lightroom - Working with the Quick Develop Panel in
the Library Module
Article
15 of 100
| To
facilitate making quick adjustments to individual and
groups of Images while in the Library Module of Adobe
Lightroom the following tools are available in the Quick
Develop Panel. The
Preset
selector for Default Settings or choose from Cyanotype,
Direct Positive, Flat, Grayscale Conversion, Lightroom
Defaults, Tone Curve - Lightroom Defaults, Tone Curve
- Linear Contrast, Tone Curve - Medium Contrast, Tone
Curve - Strong Contrast, Antique Grayscale, and Sepia
Tone. You may have noticed that the Custom Preset settings
from the Develop Module are not available in the Quick
Develop panel.
The
White Balance
selector for As Shot or choose from Multiple (for a
group of images that were shot under different lighting
conditions), Auto, Daylight, Cloudy, Shade, Tungsten,
Flourescent, Flash, and Custom.
Exposure
can be set Auto
or adjusted up or down and recentered.
Brightness
can be adjusted up and down and recentered.

Contrast
can be adjusted up and down and recentered.
Saturation
can be adjusted up and down and recentered.
A
check box is provided for Convert
Photograph to Grayscale. The result
is not bad, but I suggest either setting up a Preset
that works for you in the Develop module, or using the
full Grayscale Mixer in the Develop Module.
Copy
Settings (made to an image) can be selected.
A dialog box comes up that allows you to choose from
all the Develop tools and chose those that you want
to copy from the image selected.
Paste
Settings can be applied to another image
after settings have been copied from an image.
|
Synchronize
allows you to synchronize the settings for a large group
of images. A dialog box comes up that allows you to choose
from all the Develop tools and chose those that you want
to use to synchronize a group of images from the image
selected.
Copy
Previous is for quite simply copying
the settings from the previous image to be developed,
without having to first Copy Settings from the previous
image.
The
RESET
button allows you to start over from Default Setting
on an image. I find that I use this button a lot to
start over from all settings, it makes it easy not to
have to worry about overdoing it with any setting.

The
last button is Continue work
in the Develop module .....
