It's not smart to change filenames of your photos into the names of the people portrayed in them. It's smart to use a feature that is explicitly created for that purpose: keywords.
@@TerryLeeWhite Not an opinion. Read the Adobe White Papers on that subject and you will understand why renaming image files is bad practice and using keywords good practice.
@@TheKeeperoftheGarden yet there is a rename option built in. My point is that there are no ABSOLUTES. Do what works for you. I’ll do what works best for me as I have since Lightroom 1.0.
Great! I have run across this problem too often before. Now you have shown me a solution. Thanks.
Cheers Terry. It seems the option key is a superpower in LRC. Might just keep hammering it at random while I work and see what happens 😂
just be careful of that ONE combo using the OPTION key that will fry your PC :P
Why am I just finding out about this? This makes all the difference after giving up using smart collections.
I've been using Lightroom Classic for YEARS and didn't know about this. Why on earth did Adobe make this so hard to discover? Sheesh.
amen
Nice! Thanks Terry.
Great tip that I need a lot. Thanks.
Great secret tip!
Dang, thanks for showing this feature! I needed this
Great tip, but WHY is it hidden.
My point exactly. Why doesn't Adobe just make it a selection on the drop-down?
awesome!!
Actually impressed. I've been using LR since V2 and didn't know this existed. Well done!
Great tip! Now it would be amazing if you could sync that collection 😉.
Great Tip 🙏🙏🙏
Brilliant
Very useful … as other’s have said why not make this extended piece of logic more obvious?
I needed this!
Why hide it?
finally, thanks for
very cool but shouldnt be a secret :P you rock TLW
