I am using a 21.5" 2017 iMac running a 3GHz quad-core Intel i5 processor with 8GB of RAM

As in, if I go to open and select 3 or less RAW files to be opened it's fine. Otherwise there's a problem.

When I try to open more than 4 RAW files at once Photo either slows my computer to the point of it restarting or Photo just crashes. I can have as many RAW files open as I want as long as long as I open them in groups of 3 or less. I'm assuming this is a computer power problem that I will just have to live with?

I figured that out, and no matter where I post it I don't get that many replies. So far there's only one that was slightly helpful but I couldn't figure it out so I'm still stuck, plus I realized a different angle to get the end product so I asked again.

Sure, I'm going fo something like this first one. The flie I'm working on has a bunch of wall texture and the countertop has a lot of lines so I'm trying to tone it all down to look more basic.

Hey, I'm trying to make a sketch type of pic but I can't figure out how to get rid of some of the texture to make it look more like an actual drawing. Help?

Ok, thanks for the help. I'll see if I can replicate it, I'm still figuring out gradients so it might take some fiddling to figure out.

Thanks, I'll do that.

Hey, I am just messing around trying to make this pic look like it was past sketch and then the real thing. I'm trying to wash out some of the detail from the texture on the walls and the countertops and such. I'm not sure what the best way to go about that is. I could select the areas that are to detailed and add a blur to it, or blur the overall sketch area. Any other ideas?

It does thanks! I didn't know that existed.

Please add a keyboard shortcut that would switch from add to subtract in the selection brush.

What would be the recommended settings to fix a 10mm wide angle lens distortion to door frames? I know to use the lens correction in develop persona bit not sure if there might be a possible preset available.

I can't upload my macros to the beta version. I'm not sure if that's normal or not but I figured I would at least say something.

Tried the beta and I love the new histograms for curves and levels.
