Lightroom Transform Tool

[pearlstreet]

Anybody else finding that lr's transform tool isn't working the way it used too? Before, I could click auto and it usually did a great job but now it never does, even for a simple horizon level. All the choices are giving me cr*p results. I downloaded the latest version...still off. Just wondering if anyone else was having issues with it.

Could you be a little more specific: what was the latest version in which it was working correctly, and which is the first version in which it is not? And what exactly is it not doing correctly? ["Cr*p" comes in many different flavours, you know :-). ]

Ha! :-) I don't remember the last version but it wasn't too long ago, I use lightroom all the time. It used to do a pretty good job of straightening lines for architectural photos but now it applies the wackiest corrections. I'm having to go to Photoshop again to use the transform tool. I wondered if anyone else had noticed a difference.

It's been working for me without a problem.  I mostly use the "guided" aspects of the tool.

I'm using version 2015.6.1 and it's working splendidly. If "FULL" or "AUTO" don't produce a satisfactory result, I use the guided upright tool, allowing one to position up to four guides, two horizontal, two vertical for correcting to taste.
