How To Edit in Solo Mode in Lightroom

What is Solo Mode? Solo Mode automatically keeps only one panel open at a time, when working in the Develop Mode. As you open another panel, the one you were just using, automatically collapses. It’s great to keep you from having 7 panels open at once and scrolling up and down all-the-day-long!

To turn it on, right-click on any dark gray area in your left or right side panels. You’ll see a drop-down menu with  Solo Mode as one of the options. Just click it to turn it on. Watch the video tutorial below to see how it works.

Do you use Solo Mode? Weigh in and let me know if you love it. If you haven’t tried it, give it and try and see what you think. Once you turn it on, you may never go back.
