Reorganization of images

I'm new to LR with LR4 upgraded to LR4.1.  Can I import images from the photo of my hard drive folders, but LR doesn't let me reorganize.  I get the message "the selected source does not support custom."  Why is this?  I find it strange that such a product sophisticated that LR does not allow the user to move images in a folder, especially when it can be done easily in bridge.

Any ideas, please?

Don't expect that if you can do something in the bridge, you should be able to do exactly the same in LR. This will save you a lot of frustration. The two programs are not the same, they don't work the same.

You can move photos into the order you want, if you place first within a collection. Then select from the toolbar at the bottom of the grid (press T if she does not appear), command of the user in the drop-down list sorting options. Then drag things around to your heart's content.

In addition, refer to the documentation for

http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/Lightroom/using/WS43660fa5a9ec95a81172e081234d4a70e4-7fff.html

Note: If you have selected a smart collection or a folder that contains other files, the user control is not available in the context menu of the sort, and you cannot move to sort the photos in order any.

  • Reorganization of images in survey mode

    What are the restrictions on images in survey mode rearraging? I couldn't understand why it would work cotton and sometimes does not.

    For example, I have a directory up the 2012 main page and in a folder for each month. If I'm in the display of the GRID to the 2012 level and choose the images in survey mode, I can't reorganize. But I'm in the display of the GRID in one of the subfolders, then I can.

    Is this normal? I'm doing something wrong?

  • Reorganization of images using Windows Photo Gallery

    Hello, I have Windows 7 on my laptop. I recently downloaded the latest version of the Windows Photo Gallery on my machine and he used to edit and organize my photos. I now have lots of photos selected in a file. Then I tried to re - order the photos by dragging individual photos in another post, which would put them out of chronological order. The program wouldn't let me do that, even if I tried the slide show mode. I tried a tab in various screens, but could not come through all that would allow me to do. How is it possible without painstakingly rename each picture?

    Thank you

    Damn, some more complications. We were on a Holland America Cruise ship recently and I attended seminars put on by the techie edge and we had to use a bunch of machines with Windows 8 on them. There, it was so easy to rearrange photos, put captions, categories etc on them as well as a lot of other interesting things such as Pan photos, photo editing, etc. For me, it's a lot of things Photoshop does than maybe not to the same extent.

    Now you have concerned me! I quickly skimmed the link you mentioned, and it seems that the deactivation of the reorganization could cause some problems so I'm hesitant to try it. Especially when you say, "Proceed at your own risk" and "good luck".

    Questions arise:

    (1) if I go back to the reorganization, all my photos in the photo gallery Windows will return to the agreement prior to the photos or not. It's a real problem if I spend hours reorganization of my photos.
    (2) if I turn off the reorganization, it will also affect the pictures in my Gallery of picture-taking.
    It may be preferable for me to upgrade to Windows 8, even if I don't have touch capability. Checking online, I see that it will cost about $120 to upgrade to Windows 7. I'm the Canada so there may be a completely different price.
    What is your opinion... it's worth it to upgrade? I know that the free sort option is available. Understand there are other improvements too, such a best Windows Live Mail email program. I had thought of before upgrading, but I also remember reading that it will soon be upgrading to Windows 8 (due to some defects or gaps) so if I download the current Windows 8, I could pay for a program that is close to being obsolete.

    Thank you for your time.

  • Lightroom is not allowing me to reorganize specific images in a collection

    I have a collection of images and lightroom is not allowing me to move/rearrange some images while it is allowing me to move/rearrange others.  Any idea what the problem might be?

    Also, I tried to do a new collection and moved all the images of her and she seems to allow me to order here, however, he did not retain the custom order that I spent the last hour done.  I would like to not lose all that work...

  • Cannot reorganize the images

    I was able to rearrange the images in the grid just by dragging them.

    Now I can't move images.

    Any ideas what is the cause?

    Custom sort works only in the single files or collections.  It won't work not in smart Collections, or when you have selected a folder that has subfolders.  You must also enter the thumbnail images, rather than the border gray surrounding.  It is likely to be one of these scenarios!

  • The main show of market order is not the same as shown in the picture slide show

    Hello

    I have a portfolio of 24 images, to which I add, remove, and rearrange. When I re - organize the images in the slide show using the thumbnails, the new order of the image does not appear when you click the slide show from the main image. The order in which the images appear in the slideshow seem random, however I think that the image retains the miniature position, it originally received when adding to the slide show. For example, the first image, I've added moved to position five in thumbnails but the meter indicates his number one. I tried to change the meter manually, but it is up to the original number.

    http://gemgraphics-testcouk.BusinessCatalyst.com/index.html

    I would like to the slideshow and the meter to match with the positions of the image in the image.

    The thumbnails are organized into four columns six rows and the slide show, I would like to start at the top left, row by row, from left to right.

    Help appreciated, thanks

    Can you see the answer of Zak in this post changing slide show command and check to see if that gives you additional hints for troubleshooting?

    Also, take a look in the layers panel when you are reorganization of images.

  • E-mailing of photos from lightroom in chronological order.

    I still waiting for instructions on how to send pictures in chronological order by e-mail from lightroom?  Lightroom has mysteriously reorganizes the images in an inappropriate way.  I tried to put the pictures in the right order in a collection, but once again the images become screwed up in the email.

    I don't know if this happens with all email clients, or some as it does with Apple Mail. What client do you use?  It might be just the way certain mail clients handle export and are NOT a bug.  I know that this has been discussed for several years on the forum and I believe has been reported on forum feedback as a bug, but I don't know if Adobe believes that it is a bug.  The solution is simple, so I do not consider this problem.  I know that the chances of solving it, if it is considered to be a bug in Adobe are on ZERO when they set very few bugs, even important.

    I use no more than FGLayouts.  At best, it's an OK Starter for your projects of reactive nature.  But I was never enthusiastic with the execution of the interface in DW.  Buggy, very fickle and if you alter the CSS code, it will break the page layouts.  Basically, it's a good idea that was never fully carried out.

  • Photo Gallery can reorganize in subcategories + added new images through editing in the browser

    Hello

    I'm looking for a photo gallery that has the ability to rearrange the images displayed from the subcategories or tags. For example, I want to add a gallery which contains pictures, a projects of clients. The client wants to visitors of the site to be able to mix the Gallery to display only e.g. 'stone walls' or 'wood decking. A system of marking would be useful rather than having to load the pictures in each subcategory.

    The other consideration is that my client should be able to add new images with labels using the browser via Business Catalyst. So far, I've only managed by replacing the existing images rather than adding new images.

    Y at - it such widget for Muse or is there any other widgets wordp interested or another that could be incorporated into the work dot.

    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Jimmy

    If I'm not mistaken, basically you want to provide users an option to select the category of images as they appear on the page.

    Muse, we cannot tag or categorize, also the module of British Colombia Photo Gallery does not provide this option, but there is a solution with web applications.

    You can create a web application and web then elements app in the form of images and then rank them. When page inserting the web application with the categories drop down, so when users select the category these items in web application would show on the page. In addition, you can add custom Web app fields to search using the keyword.

    With the edition, customers can connect to BC admin, then using the photo gallery or web app (if used) module to edit images, add new ones. IBE cannot be used to add new ones, but to replace existing ones.

  • To help to "reorganize by" tab in my images

    I arranged my photos by 'day', but they go out in reverse order with the last day at the beginning and at the end the first day.  I would like to keep within days, but discovered the game in sequence from beginning to end.

    [Moved from comments]

    What version of Windows?

    If you click on the day (or is there?), once again he must reverse the order the way you want to.

  • Reorganization of the images in a file

    I have about 170 pictures of holidays in a file. I want to rearrange the order that they are listed in so that I have "view as slideshow" they are displayed in my choice of order rather than order of date or any other automatic options.

    Thank you

    Terry

    The following steps may be worth a try:

    First it's maybe a good idea to create a copy of the
    file to experiment with... then your original photos
    will be unchanged.

    You can organize the thumbnails by drag-and - drop.
    Of course, it works... go to... View / arrange icons
    by..., then select... Auto arrange...

    Once you have pictures in the order you prefer...
    Rename the files with numbers, so that they remain
    in the order.

    First... Select (highlight) all the pictures by clicking on
    ... Edition / select all... or simply select a single photo and
    type of... CTRL + A...

    Now... with all files highlighted... right click
    the first picture, then in the menu... Choose...
    Name change.

    Type a base name which can be descriptive to
    the group... Vacation... and a number... as follows...
    Holiday (10001) .jpg
    (I guess just they are in .jpg format)
    (remember to leave a space before the first parenthesis)

    Now press on... Enter... and windows renames
    the batch.

    Holiday (10001) .jpg
    Holiday (10002) .jpg
    Holiday (10003) .jpg

    Good luck.

  • could someone tell me how to document image text on app pages

    I'm currently editing a paragraph in a mirror image is anyway to rotate the text

    Text by itself is not an object, and in Pages, only objects can be knocked down or rotated. Insert a text box below your current paragraph and resize it to the same size as your paragraph of text. Copy and paste your existing text of paragraph into the text box and change to the same font as the initial paragraph attributes. You may need to pull down on the sign [+] symbol to expand the text box to eliminate the overflow.

    Reorganize, with the text box selected, you can set the tab text dressed votes to zero, and then in the rotation section, you will be able to rotate the text either along the vertical or horizontal axis.

  • Sorting images bad photos

    I just got back from a trip and downloaded photos to Photos of two devices (a Sony camera and an iPhone 6) on my Macbook. Having had problems with sorting in the past, I made absolutely sure set the time on my camera before the trip so that it matched my phone; This, I thought, would make sorting by effective date on my computer. However, when I have the mix of photos in an album and select ' View > sort > keep sorted in old first of all, ' my photos usually reorganize in chronological order, but not totally. Many are in disorder, and although I don't see a pattern (again...) it seems that the pictures of the various devices are grouped a little. If I check the file dates (click on the image, command-'i' back the news), I see that the dates, hours, and years are all correct, even if they are supposed to be sorted by date are not.

    I've included screenshots of 3 photos side-by-side after the sort, with visible info. You can see that left most is June 4, in the middle of June 5 and the right to again on June 4. Ideally, they would be sorted to the left, right, middle. Note: the Middle took on the iPhone and the other two were taken with the camera of Sony.

    I assumed that the application must be sort on another date that contain the files, but before I start dragging them manually in the order of the good date, ideas on how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    You was imported from the Middle photo at the same time as the camera of Sony Pictures?  While you were still at the Japan? Or do you you import photos in a different time zone, with the time computer system set to a different time zone.

    Photos will perform the device date as a date in the time zone that is currently set for the hour computer system.

    The photo of the iPhone has an affected site and Photos maybe treated this picture differently. Maybe she had been imported ahead of other photos in my photo stream?

  • Why my images are moved around the document on Pages (version 5.6.2)?

    If I have an image (or images) in a document on the Pages and the cursor is at the end of the sentence and I press on enter to leave room for the image, it moves around itself and mess with what I had typed. Or if I add a page break and the cursor is located before the image, it moves down to the new page on its own. Is there a function should I disable? It's really frustrating and annoying to have to keep fixing it.

    Each object file that you insert (text box, image, form, table, graphic) lands in the selected document. For each of them, the very next step is to visit the tab Pages to reorganize v5 in the right panel and put the text dressed votes to zero. This allows to move the objects from your file with impunity and avoid the magnetic effect with text and other objects.
