    Library module "Persons"

    The facial recognition also uses the "Persons" keywords to assign a name to a recognized person. Also, if you manually assign a name in facial recognition, this name will be automatically added as a "Persons" keyword.

    Library module Unable to stack photos in collection set. Bug or feature ?

    I have a collection set containing several collections. In the collections, some photos are stacked. If I display the content of the collection set to display all the photos from the collections in it, the photos are not displayed as stacked. I thought this might be normal behavior, since the...

    Masking Bird Wings - Can't Remove White Highlights

    You could also try to use select object instead of select subject. I found that very often object gives a much better masking than subject.

    Lightroom Denoise Question

    You still can revert the exposure setting. Go to the exposure slider, you will see it is at the same valueon the DNG than on the RAW (+2.79 in your example). You can therefore move it back to 0 on the DNG.

    Library module the file could not be found

    This looks like the drive letter problem. Your ED has probably been mounted by Windows to a drive letter different from the previous one. See the article here : https://www.lightroomqueen.com/premium-classic/troubleshooting/missing-files/

    Heirarchical keywords sorting/exporting issue

    Underscore is sorted before any letter in alphabetic order. Hence adding a underscore in front of a keyword makes it appear before other keywords at the same level.

    Develop module Forcing correct white balance on import

    How about creting your own RAW profile for your camera ? The RAW profile is used by LrC to create the image you see in the develop module before any dévelopement settings. Lightroom provide several RAW profiles, some from Adobe, some simulating the profiles of your camera (Portrait, landscape...

    Library module Solo Mode not working

    Before resetting préferences, I would have tried the following : - untick solo mode (to deactivate it) - restart LrC - tick solo mode - enventually restart LrC It's not sure at all it would have fixed the problem, but it's worth to try because if it had fixed it, it would have also avoided to...

    Catalogs Validating all your cataloged photos and videos for corruption

    In my opinion, this is not the responsabilty of Lightroom. Lightroom manages only the edit (metadata and/or develop) made to the images by saving them in its catalog, not the files (it has just a link to them in its catalog). Therefore, it is responsible to verify the integrity of its catalog...

    Does a picture really exist if it hasn’t been printed ?

    Interesting question. For me the image exists as long as I am able to see it, whatever media is used to see it (screen, paper projection,...). Unfortunatly, as already said, no media will exists forever. The main advantage of the digital is that you can easily move it from one media to a new...

    Develop module Lightroom has come to a Crawl

    Don't forget the cache file. Increasing it's size, putting it on a very fast non-indexed disk like a SSD and removing it from the antivirus scan might help to improve the LrC performance. It's location and size can be changed in the Preferences, tab "Performance".

    Library module Any way to change the Artist Name in the metadata in Lightroom Classic?

    I would suggest to create a preset with just the field Creator and Copyright filled with your Grandson information. The next time your Granson will borrow your camera, you will just have to select all his photos and apply the preset to this selection.

    Keywording for personal use

    One advantage of the hierarchical keywords is that whan you enter a keyword, LrC automtically adds the parent keywords. This might be useful and time saving. For example, for animal or plants, entering the name makes LrC also add the class, family, genre, species etc. This will allow me to find...

    Print module Lightroom "Print" gives strange colours

    What you describe when printing with LrC looks lke here are to software managing the color in the way to the printer. There must be only one software managing the color, either the printer driver or LrC, not both ! If you want LrC to manage the color, you must ensure the print driver won't also...

    Import Import file numbers not in sequential order

    I do rename at import. This is important because I want to keep the link between the original and the file I've send to other (in case I'm requested to send it again or get a question about the image). To garantee a unique file name, I use the following rule : {Date (YYYY)}{Date (MM)}{Date...
