Thanks for the tip. I had been using Copy Name, but I think caption may be better suited for my needs now.

And Alex commented above “I use this feature quite often, but is there a way to “find” multiple missing folder at once?”

Alex hit the nail on the head. I often move several folders from my laptop to a hard drive, and it is so slow to do for many folders. Surely this scenario happens quite frequently, so I would love to hear if there is an easy way to move GROUPS of folders easily. Like multiple select several folders, and then right click one to re-link.

I realize now that Adobe is aware of the differences in vignette algorithms and that they had in fact designed the features to work that way. The only problem I have with this explanation is that my understanding (and apparently yours as well) was that the post-crop functionality was added because everyone was using the lens correction technique but getting unacceptable results if they had cropped the photo.

Apparently that is not at all the case. Instead, Adobe decided one day that people wanted a brand new ability to add either black or white to the edges of a photo. It’s hard to imagine that many people actually wanted this. I think our previous understanding of the user community’s desire is much more plausible.

I guess that our only hope now is that Adobe will add a checkbox next to the lens correction slider that says “Apply post-crop” or, alternatively, they will add a checkbox to the post-crop section that indicates “Use lens correction algorithm.” Either one would work for me.

2. How can I use LR 2.2 to add studio name as signature on images?

I am having a problem exporting a photo. What I did was to make it BW and use the adjustment brush to color in the sky and some other areas in the photo. However I cant get lightroom to now export it. I can export any other photo just not this one. Have you had an issue or know of this? I even tried to open an edited copy in PS and it wont do that either.

Any suggestions on how to export this photo?

The link seems to be an error, type this link into your browser:

Chris – What you can do is put notes in the metadata. I’d suggest the Caption field until you get a final copy. Go the the Library and then on the right had side you will find the Metadata Panel. If you select Quick Describe you will see the Caption field with out having to look at all the Metadata fields. You will be able to put unique notes in each of the Virtual copies. Good Luck.
