Lightroom 5 Spot Removal Tool lag and is not usable (Temp workaround?)

Lightroom 5 Spot Removal Tool lag and is not usable.  The Spot removal tool is really quite critical to usability and workflow for Lightroom 5.  Check the other tools beside the Spot removal tool, it seems that the fix red eye tool is also affected.  It might have something to do with the Version of process?  I noticed when working with some old images (using the 2010 process Version) files, the Spot removal tool worked as previously experienced. Current images that have been "upgraded" in the new Version of process (2012) are now unable to use the place because of its response removal tool very laggy and sporadic.  I've never known a problem like this with Lightroom (LR since LR2 user).  Mac OSX 10.7.5, i7 to 3.4 GHz, 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

I also noticed this reprocessing that an image can return to the removal tool again 'useful' Spot (back from 2012 to 2010, then return in 2012).  Does not always work and isn't always 'stick', such as closing and reopenling LR reinitiates usually lag Spot Removal Tool.

I saw someone talking about the Version of process as a potential culprit, nor I have seen no reliable workaround solution.  An image (or a set of images) reprocessing at least works for me for a while, but it would be nice to not have continue reprocessing of images every time I open / use Lightroom 5.

LR5 is great and all I need for most of my images.  Unfortunately for me, however, this ease of use also requires features without hindrance of the Spot removal tool.

For some reason, it is clear that not everyone is experiencing such massive slow / bottleneck when it comes to the Spot removal tool.  If all users have experienced this problem at this level, they would have been calling for Adobe to address and remedy immediately.

Respectfully, Sean, make a suggestion like that proves that you do not know / have not experienced this problem / don't understand gravity on which this issue may affect workflows; simply "turn off lens correction and noise reduction" is certainly not a fix.  If the 16 GB of RAM does not resolve the problem, you really think simply turning off the noise reduction will be?  And as Bert Nase pointed out, to make that large volumes of images increases workflow in a program designed to streamline the workflow for large volumes of images.

1 - one solution is to change the version of process in your first picture (2003-2010), then copy - paste who develop the setting for the rest of your images.  This will get all your images at the point in your workflow where you can use the tool to delete Spot on each image.  After spotting, convert each image back to the current version of the process (2012) then re - perform tasks that conversion lost.

2 - The presets is a workaround of options, but you will need at least two of them adapted to your stream of work.

3. change your import settings to an earlier Version of the process is an option, and then complete Spot Removal on each photo, then update the process Version on one and copy/paste for the rest, then re - perform for each picture lost during conversion tasks and continue your workflow from there.

Readers of this thread can use the link above, but it may present its own problems, too.  As mentioned, switching back-and-forth between Versions of process can remove some of your spots already corrected and you will need to re - correct.  Worse, a prompt window asking for the creation of a virtual copy or evidence will begin sometimes arise... closing the window, by clicking 'Cancel' or by choosing another option in the context menu didn't "remember" and the window opens upward with any other "click" on the image.  Lightroom should be stopped and the computer restarted before the question to reset.

Yes, it's very frustrating and time consuming to say the least.  So, unfortunately there no solution yet to workaround.  I hope that this issue will be addressed and corrected in the next release of 5.2 (doubtful) or the Cloud of Photoshop + Lightroom version.

  • Lightroom 6 Spot removal tool

    When I use my tool of detachment, a white streak occurs, and then he chooses a random place to copy.  Any suggestions?

    If I understand you correctly, it's the way I understand the spot removal tool works. The white box you see is happening on my calculation when I brush the area that has the stain. Usually, Lightroom chooses a good enough to copy the brushed area region. But sometimes, I find that he choose a rather random and inappropriate place. When this happens that I simply move the chosen place where I think it should be.  If you encounter something different from what I understand, please explain in more detail.

  • Lightroom 5 Spot Removal Tool does not.

    Hello

    I use Lightroom 5.7.1 on a Dell Windows 7 PC. The spot removal tool does not display the sample area selected (as we see in each tutorial) when using the tool and so I can't control the area that I'm trying to fix. How can I solve this problem?

  • the spot removal tool does not work

    Hello

    I am a new user of Lightroom 5 and everything goes smoothly apart from what happened this morning.

    When you're under the Spot Removal Tool-, you have the Clone and heal options mode. They used to work perfectly until yesterday and today when I click on one of them that I go to the photo would report - to develop, he painted a white mark and when fined you it does nothing.

    It allows to create a circle that you can move to select the texture and color that suits you. Now, this no longer appears. I must have pressed a button on the keyboard that caused this!

    I tried to reset everything from this morning and nothing works... Please let me know how to solve this problem.

    Much appreciated in advance... I will provide more details if necessary.

    Concerning

    Anthony

    Looks like more of an issue.

    To display the area of the source you want healing to come again, try pressing 'H', while the heal tool is selected.  You may need to press it several times.

    If no healing does occur it sounds like you may have the opacity on the too, right tunred down.  Increase the opacity to 100 slider... or to whatever setting find you works.

  • Problem with the Spot Removal Tool

    The last several times I tried to use the removal tool the place, he did not "heal" the area that I asked for it to heal.  He heals an area adjacent to the area I want to heal.

    Any thoughts on the opportunity, it's a LR bug or something is happening with my Macbook?  I would like to address...

    Note that I ALSO encounter this problem with the adjustment Brush tool.

    (I know I can do this sort of editing in PSCC but for simple stuff like this, I usually use LRCC)

    Thanks for your help! LJB.

    Change the Clone in the Heal and vice versa does not move existing pine. You will have to redo the brush stroke after changing between Clone and Heal.

  • Only circles for the spot removal tool

    Hey all!

    I am running in what seems a simple question, but there is no information about it on the line, or at least not something that can help me.

    When I choose the spot removal tool and click and drag to get a linear change (not a circle) instead of the desired effect, the circle expands. I can't be able to simply correct a non circular task.

    I checked on the line, still a few tutorials, but everyone seems to just drag and drop and it works.

    Any ideas?

    Camera raw version you use.  Detachment was only of circles ("points") in CS6 and earlier versions.  CC adds an improved stain tool that works like photoshop's Healing Brush tool.

    Spot remover tool will not remove all stains of dirt is possible this tool can be accidentally turned off?

    It is not clear to me if you understand how this tool works. It does not automatically remove tasks, you must open the tool and click the points you want to delete. To Heal I usually put 100% opacity for Clone usually not more than 90%.

  • Keyboard shortcut for the Spot removal tool

    With my previous version of LR (2.1), I was able to turn the spot removal tool using "N" on the keyboard.  With 3.3 that strikes "N" while the removal tool the cash is active has sent me to the library which I think is a form of disabling, but not the one I'm used to.

    Changed the shortcut for this tool?

    Mac OS x (latest version), LR 3.3

    burningbush,
    It can also be a problem with the game running through Facebook server.  I noticed a difference in great step lately with Farmville on Facebook compared to when I started playing.  You should check to see if it seems to be the same on the other PC.  I noticed the problem on several machines in different places, so I know that it was not limited to a PC.

  • Why are my tool fill and sign not appearing is not on the bar and how do I solve this problem.

    Why are my tool fill and sign not appearing is not on the bar and how do I solve this problem.

    Salvation;

    What version of Acrobat or Reader are you using?  When you open the form are the fields highlighted and "complete" without clicking the 'Fill & Sign' tool to open the bar fill tools & sign?

    I suspect that the form that you opened is already ' to fill' so the fill tool & sign just offers you the possibility to sign the PDF and all filling out forms is managed the the Acrobat/Reader native app.  In the view below, I opened a 'Acroform' which is a PDF file that has form fields to fill and so the bar fill tools & sign has only 'Sign' button - it's what you see?

    'Fill & sign' tools are to fill PDF documents that have no form fields real (they are flat and not fillable) and is able to add text fields, annotations and signatures for the "flat" PDF

    Thank you

  • LR 5 questions with the help of sorting and spot removal tool

    LR 5...  Same problems with the sorting, WinX 64... crashes.  Delay of about 5 seconds to select a thumbnail, if I click on one and it lag I can fly over another and he will choose the other.  He refuses to move files selected at least 3 attempts.  However, it doesn't seem to work better work out thumbnails of Strip below.  When it starts acting up a restart does not help.  Also there is a huge gap and the jumpy mouse pointer when you use the removal tool / clone spot.

    I only LR open so the computer overload is not the issue.  I Suite OnOne 7 also and ANDLr, also many other programs open and this program works perfectly.
    I have not had any problems with the LR 4 but LR 5 is a great advertisement of NOT getting a new version until the bugs are removed.  It drives me crazy, so go back to LR 4.  The tools in LR 5 but not the accidents of love.

    These are the few that I've met so am not treats using the version 5 There is no update as of July 18, 2013 so any suggestions using LR 4 or go for a long walk until these issues are addressed?  I'm annoyed say the least to upgrade and then get grounded when I have a load of work that is time based!

    Hi L Jaworski,

    What is the updated article?

    Restart your computer and turn on your computer in a clean boot State, and then try to update. Problem can be caused by a conflict of third-party software blocking the update process. Clean boot helps eliminate conflicts of third party software.
