See you online today for my free Webinar open to everybody! We’re even live streaming it on my Facebook page. STEP SIX: That’s it - now your Develop Module panels are organized to suit your workflow. Just click the Relaunch button (as shown here). STEP FIVE: When you click the Save button, a dialog pops up letting you know you’ll need to Quit and Restart Lightroom for your changes to take effect. You’ll see a yellow line appear as you drag (as shown above where I’m dragging the HSL/Color/B & W panel from it’s default position as the third panel from the top, and I’m dragging it down so it’s third from the bottom. STEP FOUR: To put the panels you use most at the top of the stack of right side panels (so you do a lot less scrolling), click on the panel’s name and drag it into the order you want it to appear in the panel.

Don’t worry - you can always see it again by coming back to this window and turn on the checkbox back on.

STEP THREE: When this gloriously simple window appears, turn off the checkbox beside any panel you want hidden from view. Right-click (or Ctrl-click) on the title bar for any of the panels and from the pop-up menu that appears, choose ‘Customize Develop Panel’ as shown above. STEP TWO: Now we Show/hide panels and rearrange their order all in one place. For example, I don’t use the Calibration panel at all (I’m guessing many of you don’t either), so there’s no sense in seeing it, and having it take up physical and mental space in our Lightroom lives. The first thing you might consider is hiding any panels you don’t use. Backs up the catalog the next time you exit Lightroom Classic, and then the Back Up Catalog option switches to Never. In the Backup area of the General panel, choose an option from the Back Up Catalog pop-up menu: When Lightroom Next Exits. STEP ONE: Here’s Lightroom Classic’s Develop Module, and the right side panels are in their default view and order from top to bottom. Choose Edit > Catalog Settings (Windows) or Lightroom Classic > Catalog Settings (Mac OS). While we have this indoor time together, here’s another thing that we’ve been putting off - getting our Lightroom Classic Develop Module more organized. Here’s the link to watch the live stream (and comment) on my Facebook page – 11:00 AM ET today.

It’s live I take your questions on the air, and you’ll totally dig it. It’s based on a series I’ve been running once a week on my blog, and today’s Webinar is the culmination of that. PROGRAMMING NOTE: Today at 11:00 AM ET I’m doing a free webinar – everyone’s invited, that takes you on a journey about your own photography, and has the power to take your work to the next level.
