Lightroom: MacBook Touch Bar support

Dear Victoria ,

two buttons please :

1. Library and Development switch

or still more comfortable :

2. Generate positioned Single photos out of Life photos

and in general for light room : Full screen photo preview

Greetings

Marcel

It would be good to have some contextual selections ... so in Library as the previous person suggested able to scroll through the pictures while in Develop mode being able to customize the touch at with the most often used controls? This would make a significant difference to the use of Lightroom.

Hi
to there is a shortcup desperatly missing in LR :
"Start Tethered Capture"
there are for "Hide" "New Shot" "Trigger" but not for "Start" which is totally surprising
So have it in the touch would be a compensation
thanks

Yes please - touch bar support for Lightroom is essential!! So much that could be done. When can we expect it?

Touch bar support would be great. Obvious use would be adjustment sliders in develop. Film strip and star/flag ratings in library would be useful.

We need a Touch bar, I bought Macbook pro just because of it. In Photoshop my productivity has increased a lot, and it will be a must for LR.

Add in hsl sliders and sliders for all the other settings like exposure, vibrance, etc. Maybe we can select one section with the mouse and control the slider on the touch bar! Definitely add filmstrip sliding too. Something along the lines of Apple's photo app filmstrip!(: Please!!!! The touch bar needs some serious compatibility with the Adobe programs!

Lightroom provides some keyboard shortcuts that do not work on a MacBook Pro with the Touch Bar. Keys like F2 are simply not available on the keyboard. But apart from certain shortcuts missing, I would love to be able to slide through the images, like I can do in iPhoto. Other shortcuts will help, but are not as badly needed, as a lot of actions in Lightroom are already available through keyboard shortcuts.

So, I would love sliding through the pictures, and shortcuts that are currently not available as they require function keys.

FWIW F2 works for me to show function keys if I hold down "Fn" key first (as with physical function-key Macs in default state). But there's no option to show the function keys by default all the time on the Touch Bar.

Thank you Stephen. That should have been obvious to me, but I completely missed it. So much more to learn about my brand new MacBook Pro.

System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Function Keys -> add apps to show function keys in Touch Bar instead of application controls.

And back in the Keyboard section in System Prefernces, you can choose to show Fn keys all the time, or app controls, or the standard bar. And you can change what Fn shows.

When will it arrive? The touch bar would be amazing when you are rating your images.

The touch bar would be so useful in so many things... flagging/unflagging, star ratings, sort by ___, color coding, adjustment sliders, preset shortcuts, sliding through the bottom photo strip... Where is this update?

I agree with everyone's sentiments in these replies. I would love to see all of them integrated.

For me the key thing is that the Touch Bar can be whatever anyone wants it to be; so make it exactly that. If people don't want it used, then have an option to delselect it; if people want it as a film strip have the whole thing as a film strip; if people want to flag/rate/keyword, then do that; have it do different things in each module.

The world really is your oyster with this thing guys and I'm amazed (and hugely disappointed as I just got myself a new MacBook Pro) to see it's not being utilised.

PLEASE sort this out, even if you improve it in later updates, get something out that uses it in some way, because having nothing there feels worse than having normal "F-keys"...

Yes, please. And make it costumisable, as we all will have different uses for it.

In the meantime you may want to take a look at BetterTouchTool app. It's not perfect, but you can use it to add several Lightroom commands to the touch bar. https://folivora.ai

Also desperate for this - it's been two years since the Touch Bar launched and every other app on my Mac - Photoshop, Airmail, Safari, Chrome, even bloody Microsoft Excel supports it.

Come on, Adobe. Lets get some Touch Bar support! ☺️

The bar changes depending on which mode you are in and whether you have an active selection.

Even better, let us choose and customize from an available list of actions depending on which panel is active!

This is my estimation, Abobe denied to add Mac depended feature. Isn’t it?
If other Windows PC vendors copies touch bar to their products as usual,
Adobe may supports it.

I just realized that the Touch Bar is not supported in Lightroom Classic CC and also not in Lightroom CC. This is crazy annoying and I really do not understand, why this is not supported from the first day on. In between a real tough migration from PC to Mac regarding Lightroom the missing Touch Bar support is the second major draw-back. I'm really thinking about to change to a Lightroom alternative.
