Title: Lightroom/ACR processing order?
Post by: kimballistic on December 14, 2019, 05:39:07 pm

Anyone have any links or documents that explain the order in which LR/ACR applies all the Develop settings under the hood?  After 20 minutes of googling I haven't been able to find anything.

I understand I don't need to edit in that order, but I'm curious nonetheless.  :)

It's a black box  8)  in that LR & ACR will pick the order that it needs to complete the process.

The processing isn’t done in user order but the order Adobe has decided upon and yes, that's a black box (only Adobe knows and they ain't telling).
