Lightroom Classic Auto Button

[williamg46009736]

Trying to find out if I can batch process multiple files using the auto button and have each file adjusted accordingly?

[Rob_Cullen]

Sure.!

Just use Grid view in the Library module and select all the files you want. (Ctrl+A = ALL files in the window)

Open the Quick Develop panel and click on the [Auto] button in the Tone Control section.

Be aware this will over-ride your slider adjustments,

When I selected all files and then hit the auto button it only adjusted the first file, I am looking to adjust all the files.  But thanks for your info.

The Auto button in Library's Quick Develop panel will adjust all the selected files.  Some troubleshooting questions:

Were you in LIbrary Grid view when you did this (the menu command View > Grid, causing a grid of thumbnails to display)?  If you were in Library Loupe view, with just one photo showing (View > Loupe), then most commands apply only to the most selected photo, even if you have multiple photos selected in the filmstrip.

When I go to view - Grid- it kicks me from develop back to library.

Grid view is only available in the Library module.

That's right.

I think you missed WobertC's original reply about this: Re: Lightroom Classic Auto Button . In Library's Quick Develop panel in the right column, use the Auto button.  See his screenshot.

Thank you, feeling a little challenged today.

Glad you got it figured out.
