Quick Lightroom (LR 5) question

[tirediron]

Does anyone know if there is a way to set the crop ratio in LR 5 to default to a size/ratio OTHER than "As shot"? I normally crop proofs to 8x10, and it would save me a LOT of time if it always opened to that rather than having to add the step of changing from "As shot" to "4x5/8x10".

Thanks!

Nope (I think). You can only do it with copy and paste setting. Crop setting is not in preset.

Well that sucks! 32" Hg worth!

Is it that hard to fix one photo to 4x5 and then copy and paste to all?

I think if you 'select all' in grid view in Library,you can apply a crop preset in Quick Develop so they'll all open that way in Develop mode.
Seems to be the only way.

'Cause I don't want to apply it to all, just 'most'.

Selct the ones you want in a library grid and set this
