Lightroom Update Versions 6.4 and CC 2015.4

A new iteration of Lightroom has been rolled out today including some new features for subscribers.

Boundary Warp

The Photomerge Panorama process often produces a stitched panorama that is not rectangular, requiring some cropping or sending into Photoshop to use the content aware function. The new Boundary Warp feature in LR CC 2015.4 (not LR 6.4) uses an analysis of the edges of the panorama and warps the image so that it is rectangular and doesn’t require cropping.

LR Mobile Prefs

The latest update to LR CC 2015.4 now gives the ability to specify regular folders in LR desktop.

In the past auto-import from Camera Roll on a phone or tablet automatically copied jpeg images into LR desktop but these photos were stored in a .lrdata file. Moving them into regular folders required manually moving them using the folders panel.

The new functionality can be found in preferences:

Edit >> Preferences >> Lightroom Mobile (tab) on Windows

Lightroom >> Preferences >> Lightroom Mobile (tab) on Mac

You can now choose a folder location and also choose dated sub folders, if required.

Performance Improvements – LR CC 2015.4 & LR 6.4

• The panorama merging process is said to complete roughly twice as fast as Lightroom 6.3
• Thumbnails update more quickly when copying and pasting settings or using Sync
• Improved quality when applying Auto Straighten and Upright “Level” mode
• Preview images load faster in the Library module when zoomed in 

Update to LR CC 2015.4 from the Apps Tab in Creative Cloud
Update to LR 6.4 from the LR Help Menu
