Title: how to get the automatic grid in transformation?
Post by: kers on November 23, 2024, 08:14:50 am

At some point i lost the automatic grid that comes as soon as you are transforming and cannot find a way to get it back.

and the adobe help centre is not my taste - cannot find it.  i simply cannot ask "find grid in LR classic"

is there a pdf manual for LR classic?

maybe it is my problem only, but would like some help.

Thank you for pointing me to this website, but i was already so far that i could install the grid,
but it used to be that it came up automatically when i use rotation for instance in Transfromation, and then would disappear again after i left transformation.

That, i still don't know

Do yourself a favor and get the ebook: https://www.lightroomqueen.com

Page 349:
By default, the grid overlay appears when
you float over the Transform sliders, to help
you make adjustments by eye. You can turn
the overlay off or on permanently using View
menu > Loupe Overlay > Grid or by selecting
the Guided Upright tool (in the corner of
the Transform panel) and adjusting the Grid
Overlay options in the toolbar.
