Edit in CS4 - options are missing

[Hiace_Drifter]

Previously when I picked a photo in LR2, then selected Photo>Edit in>Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4 I would be given the options "Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments", "Edit a copy", "Edit original". However now when I open the photo (raw file) it opens straight into CS4 as a CR2 file - not giving me the options.

Does anyone know what might be causing this? I have opened it before into CS4, would that be affecting it?

Thanks.

Quite right Neil - the behaviour has changed between LR1 and LR2 for the primary editor. LR2 can now send CS3 or CS4 the raw data, allowing you to open the file directly into PS without having to create an intermediate Tiff or PSD file. You can then save it however you like. The secondary editor still behaves in the old way, creating an intermediate file, as most programs using the secondary editor require that kind of data.

Thanks for that... it was the first time I have used LR2 and indeed CS4 since upgrading both. It threw me for a moment!
