Adobe Lightroom 2 - eBook project
The Lightroom version 1 project has come to an end. Adobe has released Lightroom 2 Beta and within a few months the final release of Lightoom 2.0 will be available. I am now working on producing the Adobe Lightroom 2 - eBook project.

If you would like to donate to the Lightroom 2 eBook project, I will give you access to a password protected part of this website, which will contain my Adobe Lightroom 2 notes and eBook project pages as I create them. No guarantees and no schedule, but you will be my friend forever and receive an (on-line PDF) copy of the final eBook when it is completed. Thank you, George

Lightroom 2 Beta - Working with two monitors to speed up the workflow.

Sometimes the solution is so simple that it takes forever to find it. If you have been reading my recent posts you know that I have been looking for a way to illustrate the second monitor in this blog. I have been using a number of different screen grabbing utilities for so many years now and none of them will let me grab the second monitor.

It of course never occurred to me that there could a really simple solution, the built in Apple OS X solution of simply using the keyboard command - Command/Shift/3. Could it be any simpler? The only problem with this solution is that it creates a full resolution PNG file (which Lightroom can not read), but the problem was easily solved by using Photoshop CS3 to reduce the size and save the image as a JPEG file.

Image 1a - the main screen in the Library Module - I have set the viewing area to the Thumbnail Grid mode so I can easily sort the images.

Image 1b - the second screen in the Library Module - I have set the second screen in the Loupe mode so I can see a detailed view of the image I have selected on the main screen.

Image 2a - the main screen in the Develop Module - As you can see I have selected my crop marks but not finalized the crop setting yet.

Image 2b - the second screen in the Develop Module - On the second monitor monitor I can see the crop selection enlarged to the size of the second monitor, before I have made the final crop decision on the main screen.

As usual I apologize for being late with this posting (especially to my fellow blog posters), now that I have solved the screen grab problem, I will hopefully be able to get back on schedule.
