Option missing to open images as layers in Photoshop.


the option edit in photoshop cs4 lightroom 4 , return fine. however, option open images layers in photoshop grayed out option open smart object or merge.

these other options work differently simple "edit in..".

 

the method work you, cs4, using photoshop standard external editor means of "dumb" interaction. lr work of converting image bitmp , saving tiff or psd. knows enough other program, tell operating system start program executable , pass file has been created. keeps eye on file, watching modifications saved other application.

 

the compatibility needed between 2 programs is: ps (or whatever) can understand tiff or psd made lr; , in return, ps (or whatever) can save modified file lr can display.

 

the extended options mention, rely on lr getting ps acr work of conversion, , in due course, ps take care of file creation too, , furthermore, tell lr file has been created where. partly because several conversions involved rather one; conversions made directly photoshop's memory space not yet onto disk; acr territory.

 

in order more complex interaction happen, lr needs talking fully-compatible ps , acr partnership - knows read adjustments, , include them in bitmap information. @ present, lr4, means either photoshop cs6 acr 7.x - or else (as special concession), photoshop cs5 acr 6.7. unless 1 of 2 setups detected, these forms of interaction greyed out. sorry
