Lightroom Mag June-July

Lightroom Magazine
Additionally, just like in Lightroom
Classic, the selective adjustment tools
in the cloud apps gained the new Hue
slider. (I hope this means we’ll also see
Range Mask added to the cloud in the
near future.)
A version of the Raw Defaults feature
used in Lightroom Classic has also made
its debut in the cloud apps. Just like
within Lightroom Classic, to customize
the Raw Defaults, you can select a preset
containing the settings you want to
be applied to all newly imported RAW
photos. The Lightroom cloud apps also
gained a new preset group containing
the same new Defaults presets that can
be used for this purpose; or you can
always create your own preset the way
you want it. Go into the Lightroom preferences,
to the Import tab, and you’ll
find the new Raw Defaults section and
the menu for selecting the desired preset
(see previous page).
One last thing to mention before
looking at platform-specific additions is
the brand-new Lightroom community
(currently a beta release). The goal of
the Lightroom community is to create
a space for discovering other photographers
around the world, sharing your best
edits, and learning from each other. Head into the Discover section of the
Lightroom app’s Home screen to learn more.
Lightroom Cloud for Mac and Windows
Watermarking has finally been added to the desktop version of the Lightroom
app. These watermarks can only be added when exporting copies (hopefully,
we’ll see this expanded to shared galleries at some point in the future),
and this first iteration of watermarking is limited to text only. Watermark
settings will sync between other Lightroom cloud apps. When exporting
copies, you can access the watermark settings by turning on the Include
Watermark checkbox and clicking on the gear icon to its right to enter the
Watermark editor. Configure your watermark, click Done, and it will be
applied to the copy that’s created.
