![]() We used to be able to right-click a custom folder (or the User Presets folder) and access a contextual menu for creating new folders, but that is gone. Not to take away from all the nice things, but these changes did take managing presets back a few steps. There’s also a bunch of new presets for you to explore. ![]() You still need to click the preset to apply it to the photo just as before, but this makes it a lot easier to find one you like. The Navigator still changes too, but who needs that when you have the main image updating? The really cool change that slipped under the radar is that you now get a full screen preview of a preset simply by hovering your cursor over the preset. Note, it left the original custom presets where they were, but appended a ~ to the front of the file name to remain backwards compatible with older versions of Lightroom Classic (should you still have an older version installed). The few presets I had in Camera Raw are now showing in Classic too (inside the User Presets folder). That’s actually pretty cool. What it did was convert your existing custom Develop presets to a format compatible with the Camera Raw plug-in, and then copied the XMP versions to a folder shared with the Camera Raw plug-in, so now your custom Lightroom Classic presets are available inside the Camera Raw plug-in. First, upon launch of 7.3 you probably saw a somewhat strange message about updating develop presets to XMP, which may have left you scratching your head. One of the new features that didn’t get a lot of attention though was the changes to Develop presets. I think the profiles are a huge step forward. The latest update to Lightroom Classic has a lot to love, as Scott shared yesterday.
