Bug in smart Collections

• Bug in the smart Collections when change Date is today?

  

  I got home today, made changes to the three images, and then I wanted to collect these three in a smart collection. Much to my surprise, I found myself with 91 images in my Smart Collection. And I know that I have not touched Lightroom since Sunday (two days ago) because I was not home yesterday. I'm 100% sure that Auto Sync was not lit when I edited the three photos (and if it has been activated there will be an entry in the history panel, which there is not). Can anyone provide a possible explanation? Or do I have to report it as a bug?

  In addition, there is a place in the metadata Panel, indicating the date of the edition? I could not find.

  I am convinced that the only thing I did when I got home was actually to change 3 pictures. I change the metadata fields that I know, normally when I'm editing mode, I'm not back metadata to the metadata edition edition. The AnyFilter plugin is not installed. I doubt that other plugins were nothing, the only one that would be possibly enabled is exporting Jeffrey Friedl Lightroom plugin, and I understand he uploads from Flickr comments, unless make you it run using it to upload photos.

• Problem (bug?) with smart collections

  Hello

  I have LR (standalone) 6.1 and I want to create a smart collection to select images that are not in the collections (stardard). As I find anything better, I created a smart collection where I need the name of the collection of the image does begin with 'A', 'B', etc...

  This works as long as the collection names are long of 1 Word. I'm intrigued by this behavior. Is this a bug? Is there another way to achieve what I want?

  Thank you.

  [It may take awhile for someone who knows the answer to read your messages.]

  The operator "starts by" is buggy.  The criterion of the "Collection starts with a' will match any collection whose name contains a word that begins with"a ". For example it will not match "A big red pony", 'It's a pony of reading', 'ponies are large animals.  Adobe has acknowledged this bug four years ago in the Adobe official feedback forum: Lightroom: problems with "begins with" text filtering.  You can add your vote and review on it in the vain hope that Adobe can fix before the next ice age.

  Meanwhile, to find all photos that are not in the collection, you can use these rules:

  Match any of the following rules

  Collection contains a, b, c,... z 1 0... 9

• To find virtual Copies to smart Collections

  Is it possible to find virtual copies in collections smart without use "name of the copy is not empty? Basically, I'm using the name of the copy as a version number for all images, including the base image which is the original. But what makes it so difficult to find the actual copies themselves. Any ideas?

  Thank you

  I'll see if a smart collection can work to a saved filter, which allows to correctly identify the real VCs.

  Don't know what that means, but if you want "Virtual copy is" metadata available for (native standard Lr) smart collections, it is available through

  Metadata extensions

  The only downside is that the metadata are not updated immediately, if you need to 'manage' the update of metadata and/or expectations.

  Funny - I just came across the need for this last night - I solved it by ensuring that all virtual copy names are distinguishable master copy names, yet: because of the text metadata from Lightroom treatment of gaps (e.g., space management and bug "Big mallards"), it is really better to have a yes / no rule.

  See you soon,.

• Can LR5 always create a Smart Collection or published a smart folder based on keywords?

  I have a smart Collection based on keywords imported LR4, but when you create a new Smart Collection or a published smart folder, the choice of "Key words" is missing from the context menu rules!

  Is this a bug?

  I am trying to create a smart folder that is published, but this question caught me.

  I think you can still do. If I correctly get what you're after: begin the process of creating the smart collection and when you see the settings dropdown to choose to create your collection, do scroll down to "Other metadata" click on it and you will see "Key words" it. I hope this helps

• Status of metadata in smart collections

  Their smart collection configuration in LR4.1 to show all the images that must be saved to disk - "metadata status is not updated.

  After saving images sometimes certain images will always come back as if they were not updated.  For example, I saved a single image 6 times on this smart copllection drive, but every time after that seconds back again as if she must still be saved.

  Tried to change some develop elements to force real change, but this does not a problem either.  Any thoughts?

  With the help of 16 GB Ram, snow leopard Mac.

  Thank you

  After the recording of metadata (if not make a mistake), read the metadata. (there is a bug in Lightroom, and which often clears the symptoms of the problem).

• "Birthdays" Smart Collection (based on day/month but NOT the year)

  Hello.

  I came across a problem when trying to make some organizes on my photos...

  Is it possible to create a Smart Collection with "Date is" + "in the range" then use day/month only and excludes the year?

  Or just a simple "Date is" + "date specific minimum year '.

  What I'm trying to do, is to create a smart album that has pictures of all my children on/autour. of their birthdays. The eldest is 14 years old and I have four children, manual adding of all dates and keep them up to date in a year is - while it is certainly doable - a little pain there.

  Is there a way to do this with Lightroom?

  The only way to create a smart collection for this is to manually add each year the criteria smart collection.

  A simpler way is to use the John R. Ellis AnyFilter plug-in.

• Photoshop retouching in smart collections

  Hello

  Usually I edit my photos in a folder (in lightroom, of course), I thought I would create a smart collection first this time to sort the pictures a little better.

  I use Ctrl + E to edit a photo in Photoshop. I do my necessary edits, save and return to lightroom. But the picture in the smart collection is still the original. If I go into the folder where the pictures are, the Assembly is stacked with the original Photo. It has (because it seems to me) the same tags and markings of color as the original photo. I tried to change the order of the stack, but it's no help.

  I tried splitting the battery, but the smart collection only reacts to the evolution of the original photo.

  What happens here?

  If the new file IS NOT satisfied the criteria for the Smart Collection, it will not be displayed in the Smart Collection.  For example, if you have a Smart Collection that is "file type is RAW" and do a "Edit in Photoshop" a RAW Collection Smart the edited file is that NOT a RAW file so it will not be displayed in the Smart Collection.   What are your Smart Collection criteria.

• Using Smart Gallery to reflect a Smart Collection?

  I would like to create a smart Gallery based on criteria (pick flag, label color, category) so that my best images will automatically enter in this collection "my best Images.

  I then create a smart Gallery in Zenfolio reflecting this collection?

  I tried to create a smart Gallery whose criteria is simply "Source contains all of the words"my best Images", but that doesn't seem to work. He produced images of 0.

  Any help would be appreciated!

  2. right click on the Zenfolio service in Control Panel Services publish and select change settings.

  

  3. step off to the Zenfolio section: galleries to publish this Service.

• I'm totally confused about records, collections and smart collections.

  I am a complete newbie to Lr so please forgive what are fundamental questions without doubt!

  In records, I have 2 folders - Annecy and Aix which have different vacation photos.

  In Collections, under smart Collections, I have a folder named Aix which has my pictures of Aix and that is synchronized to Lr on my ipad.  However, although Annecy is listed under Collections, it is in a folder at the top of a new tree under smart Collections but does not part of smart Collections.  I hope that makes sense!  This issue of Annecy does contain pictures, and the only thing being synchronized on ipad is the name of the folder.  How can I copy photos from the folder in the folders in the Collections folder?

  I read that peaks must be in the Collections before they can be synchronized.  However, on the ipad there is that a folder named "Pictures Lightroom" it contains 242, the same as "all photographs synchronized" under the heading catalog when Lr appears on my desktop.  At present, I am initially upload my pictures in my office and then import to the RL.

  Finally, about mobile Lr in response to a previous johnreliis investigation informed that I must ensure that I am connected to creative cloud on the ipad before being able to view synchronized + photos on the ipad.  I downloaded Lr mobile on the Apple store and have nothing to CC on the ipad.  Now, I wonder if the reason that the pictures of Annecy are not displayed on the ipad is due to the fact that, at the present time, they are not in a Collection.

  Thanks in advance for all you can give me advice.

  Just drag Annecy out of smart Collections and next to Aix.

  What is called "smart Collections" is actually a Collection Set - that is a container for other regular or silent collections (like your Aix) and smart collections which include images of criteria that you define. Notice how "Smart Collections of" has a different icon from the smart collections inside, looking more like a box. So what you could do then is to create a set of Collection called France and drag Annecy and Aix in it.

  To get the pictures in the Annecy collection, you can find them in your folders and drag the thumbnails in the grid and place in Annecy.

• Smart Collections using 'Source' and 'Collection '.

  I'm a little confused about this subject.  I want to create a smart collection within a set of sets in the collection.

  Example:

  The TRIPS agreement is a set of collection

  Under the TRIPS Agreement, you have RV

  Under the RV, you have "ButterField Ranch may 2016.

  Under "ButterField Ranch 2016 may" you "All".

  Then under "ButterField Ranch 2016 may" want to create a smart collection that includes only the "color of the label" green collection "All".

  The question is, how - you reference the 'all' within all the other collections without getting all other collections 'All' somewhere else.

  What the question is: How do bosses really work for 'Source'-> 'Collection '.

  The question is, how - you reference the 'all' within all the other collections without getting all other collections 'All' somewhere else.

  You can not.  Smart collection criteria allow you to match the names of the folders, collections, published reports and publish the service (for example, "Flickr").  There's no way to match the name of a collection defined in smart collections (or filters, incidentally).   Others have asked for this feature - please add your vote and detailed opinion, why you want this feature request service in the official Adobe feedback forum: Lightroom: Smart collections lack of criterion for "Collection Set | Community customer Photoshop family .

  To match the names of the sets in the collection, you can use the plugin to any filter.

• Lightroom CC smart Collections - keywords - bringing in other Photos

  Hi all

  I'm having some problems with Collections smart Lightroom - would really appreciate some help with this.

  I've implemented a Smart Collection using the keyword "windows and doors".  He brought in all of tagged "windows and doors" my photos but it also brought in many other photos that do not have this keyword.  I thought that maybe it's that he straightens out the word "and" which could be included in another keyword, but this is not the case.

  As far as I see it is the only criterion I have set for the smart collection but just can't establish why she brings to all other photos.

  Any help with this will be appreciated.

  Another possibility is to not use smart collections at all.

  In the keyword list Panel, hover your mouse over "Windows and doors" and click on the arrow to the far right. It is the best way to find pictures with a particular keyword, in my opinion.

  The problem by using a smart collection and "contains all the" is it does not permanently select photos that have the keyword "windows and doors", he can always choose other keywords such as (invents) "Microsoft Windows and back doors. But in another example more realistic, if I key words for "New York" and "York", all of which are two cities in the State of New York (Yes, it is really a York City, New York), and they have the name of the city as a keyword and the name of the State as a keyword, and then search for the "New York" with "contains all the ' there are pictures of the two cities." There is no ambiguity when using the method of keyword list Panel, you will get only the photos for the keyword you want. So if I select the keyword 'York' via this method, I only get the photos with the keyword "York" and no photos with the keyword "New York."

• Lost smart collections

  I tried to export a collection of photos on my desktop on an iMac. He said the successful exportwas so I closed the program.  The photos were not on the desktop and when I went back in lightroom that all my 'smart' collections have disappeared except for one.  It has happened, but they reappear magically at the end of 5 minutes.  This time, they have not... any suggestions!

  In Lightroom (not your operating system), browse to the file-> open the new item and select each catalog here until you find the one with smart collections.

• Smart collection? These latest imports?

  Is there a way to create a smart collection to see all the photos imported in the last, say, 1 or 2 days? It seems that the date is available as a field in the metadata, but I don't see how to use it in a smart collection. I want to work with all the photos that have been imported from several SD cards at the same time.

  I was afraid of that... but I've found a workaround. I created a new standard collection called recent imports and the value of import to automatically add dialog of the photos in this collection. I just need to remember to clear the collection at the right time.

• How do I create a smart (smart) collection of all photos taken at date of Christmas for all years (all of 24 December)?

  I like to create a smart collection of all photos taken from a specific date as December 24, for all years!

  It is very tedious to do that in Lightroom without a plug-in.

  I think that the plug-in filter everything from John R. Ellis can create this collection without penalty (I don't know if it creates a smart collection or a regular collection).
