My Lightroom 4 Wish List
Improvements I'd like to see incorporated in the next release of Adobe Lightroom:
1) Clone Stamp tool — Round-tripping to photoshop, and returning to LR is too inconvenient. Slow's workflow.
2) Better Tool Tips — Too many commands are buried and are hard to remember. Would be nice to have tool tips that pop-up when you hover the mouse over an item.
3) Finder Integration – I'd like to see better integration with the "Finder" (Macintosh), or the Desktop on PC, with the Import feature.
4) Improved Slide Show – There are very few options and choices for designing the look of slides. I'd like more control over type & fonts, frames, layout, and transitions.
5) Improve Stacks — The interface is awkward and it's tricky to unstack and re-stack photos.
6) Quick Collections – I just don't get this one. I occasionally create them by accident. Drives me crazy.
7) Hiding Lightroom – would be nice to have a keyboard shortcut to hide Lightroom to reveal the desktop.
8) Photographic edges or Simulated Mat – As a preset panel, would be nice. Anyone can create the edge effects or Mat effects and save them to a file, for presetting.
That's it for now. I'm sure I'll have more as I continue to use Lightroom 3.5. It's a fantastic program that is a must for most photographers.
