Hi,
I'm Peter, I've been teaching Lr since version 1, and I know most of it inside out. There are 2 things I still can't wrap my head around, and answers didn't come from Adobe either.
1. If I have a PSD or other non-RAW file in Lightroom, I can make Lr edits on top of it. But when I then decide to alter that file in Photoshop (edit > edit original), save it and return to Lr, all the non-destructive edits from Lr are gone. That doesn't make any sense to me, since both types of editing don't interfere. Editing in Photoshop is like going inside the container to work in there, so why would it cancel what's wrapped around the container? "The ticket describing the bottle shouldn't change when I pour a different liquid inside it."
2. Well, this doesn't really belong here, but anyway: when adding GPS data to photos in the map module, suggestions for addresses is turned on. But suggestions remain in italics (therefore not really applied to the field), and there doesn't seem to be a way to batch the suggestions inside the field (CTRL+S doesn't do it of course). Typing the fields, one by one, the first letters, and entering does it. But I'd be mad to do that to the thousands of photos I make on my trips. I remember this wasn't the case when the map module was first introduced. It made me go back to geosetter.de for this, but maybe I'm missing something. It could be a rights issue with Google, but Adobe doesn't reply to my questions regarding this.
Thanks for any advice
Peter
