It’s Tuesday — time for a 60-second quick tip from Adobe’s own Benjamin Warde, and once again, you’ll find this one really handy – he shows a little-used setting that makes the process SOOOO much easier in those tough situations. Even if you use the Spot Removal tool a lot, this is really worth watching.

I knew you’d find that one helpful (and thank you, Benjamin).

Here’s to a rockin’ Tuesday, in a great week!

Best,

-Scott

    Wow, I teach Lightroom and didn’t know this one. I didn’t know changing the overlay changed the function, I just thought it changed the view. My workaround had been to just sneak up by starting next to and area that I had just brushed, and brush over.

      Where is the Tool Overlay in the latest 2015.7 version of Lightroom please?

      It’s not in the drop down menu of VIEW

        I’ve now found it under TOOLS (Not VIEW) where it’s ticked as “Autoshow”

        However I can’t find the relevant Tool Overlay Popup at the bottom of the screen.

        Your help would be appreciated. (My version is 2015.7.1)

            I still cannot find the Tool Overlay Popup.

            After hitting T there are two layers of tools:

            The first layer contains : Copy, Paste, Large View, Before & After, Select previous photo, Select next photo, Soft Proofing.

            The second layer contains : Main Window, Second Window, Library grid, Go back, Go forward, Collection, Filter, Filter based on ratings, Filter based on Colur label, No filter

            However nowhere can I find the Tool Overlay Popup.

            I’d value further guidance.

            Cliff
