This used to be a lot easier using a selection border radius.
I merged photos in LRC and got the pano but all the photos I selected disappeared. What did I do wrong?
Simple and useful. Thank you.
Ok my curser isn’t changing 🥲
Great clear tutorial
thx u, u look so pretty .. thx u so much for this
Brilliant, thank you.
Hello Nicole. Everything works well thus far. Got stuck on the video at 5:10. Regarding the Gradient tool - nothing happens when I released the mouse. I just have these big round gradient circles on the screen. Can't to figure out how to get rid on the circles off screen and fill in the parts I need. Suggestions?
Double-check the layers panel and make sure you are adding the gradient to the mask. That would be the first thing to check.
thnks
is there a shortcut for this?
Thank you, you have answered one of my frustrations with Lightroom :)
Great video. Very explanatory. What’s the equipment you used to capture these great photos?
I have a write-up on my website with this information: nicolesy.com/2021/06/08/pluto-trigger-waterdrops/
Straight to the point, thank you!
What about if you have over 500 photos (or even more) and you need to do it on them all ?!
I’m that case, I would try to create an action. It would likely require creating a separate rounded-rectangle that can be pasted into the document for the action. You may need to experiment with different setups but I’m sure it’s possible.
I don'ts get the inner curve dot in my rectangle, help
Thank you! I had this set and lightroom switched it off after and update and I was going nuts looking for this setting again
Thank you very much. This was very helpful.
Any reason why the Make Public button does not show up on the page ???
Mine doesnt give me those circles to let me change shape. It makes a flat block with no ability to modify it.
Thx for the video. We are still waiting (from adobe) to implement the zoom and pan within the survey mode (since the last 15 years)
Will try it! Thank you
Nice tutorial thank you Nicole
one of my concerns was how/whether edits would sync up with main catalog which they apparently do. Great overview. Easily understood. Thanks.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Thanks very informative. I found the music distractive.
so well explained! I love the fact you zoom in to show each icon and steps, lots of other video just said do this and do that without show it clearly, always have to stop and rewind back to see exactly what they are doing, but your video zoomed in with enlarged icon, so easy to follow! big thank you!
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Do these features no longer work for Facebook or Instagram? Doesn't seem like it.
Yes, that's correct. Facebook/Instagram is no longer supported in the Publisher panel.
Came here to remember how to import brushes (haven’t had to do that in years) and I left with an armful of free goodies 😝
Exactly what I need. Thanks
Спасибо ❤
THANK YOU
Thanks!
BRILLIANT
Circles absent in my photoshop :(
If you are referring to the indicators that you would use to create the rounded corners, first you will want to make sure that you have the same version (or newer) of Photoshop that is shown in the videos. You may also need to go to View > Extras and make sure that it is checked to show those circle indicators.
@@nicolesy ty
Very clear voice ,and easy to understand instructions makes learning a lot easier
Straight to the point - really helpful. Thanks!
Big big thank!!! :)
Very helpful, thanks!
Perfect explanation. Thank you!
how do i add something like a glitter border to the circle? a circle in the circle
You could use a layer style and add a stroke the circle, and use a glitter pattern for the stroke (you would need to create or import a custom pattern to do that). Or you could create a second circle that is a bit larger, and add a glitter image to that circle, and place it behind the image.
Thank you!
Thanks so much for this.🙏🏻 It was so simple and easy to follow.
Thank you so much. Legend!
I know this is an old vid, but it is timeless. No pun intended. Just found that my 2024 eclipse photos were shot in February🙃.
I will use the color range more. Now that I have something good to follow.
Why are you stoping video uploading
I took a break but plan up starting uploads again soon!
Thank you!
Wow! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Great video.
I'm glad there is an option because I've been uploading directly from my camera and it's not showing me any JPEGs just the raw files. 700 photos later and next time I will know to check this setting.
SUPER HELPFUL THANK YOU, LOVE HOW SIMPLE IT WAS
