Develop for Lightroom CC

Edit in Adobe Lightroom (the cloud app, once Lightroom CC) with real dials on Stream Deck + for macOS and Windows. Not for Lightroom Classic. Turn a dial: the strip shows the same number as Lightroom's slider. Works with Lightroom in any language; keys and strip in English, German, French or Spanish, picked automatically.

"Your plugin has really helped me improve my workflow." — Tori Soper, Tori Soper Photography

What it does

Dials that read Lightroom: exposure, white balance (kelvin on raws), color, masks. Turn to adjust, press and turn to fine-tune, press to reset, tap the strip to switch.

AI masks in one press: subject, sky, background, sliders ready on the dials.

Skin in one press: Lightroom's adaptive face-skin preset or a soft-skin look, mask ready.

The deck follows you: pick crop, masking or remove and the deck jumps there (optional).

Keys light up when they're on: crop, ratio, B&W, clipping, lens corrections, stars.

Photo dial: the edited photo, its stars and flag on the strip. Turn to browse, press to pick.

Requirements

Stream Deck +, macOS 13+ or Windows 10/11. For Stream Deck + XL, get Develop XL for Lightroom CC instead.

Adobe Lightroom (cloud) from Creative Cloud or the Mac App Store, with Enable external controllers on in Interface preferences (restart after). Pair once.

Dial steps: the step you type in a dial's settings now goes down to 1/1000 of the slider (Contrast 0.2, Exposure 0.01, Temperature 0.1). Smaller values are raised to that minimum instead of being ignored.

Turning a dial while pressing it (fine steps) no longer resets the value — or changes row — first. A press without turning still does.

Crop, the white balance eyedropper and the other tool keys that light up now close the tool when pressed again while it is open. Heal and Clone keep switching modes.

Runs on the Node 24 runtime bundled with the Stream Deck app (Node 20 reached end of life). Requires Stream Deck app 7.1 or later.

Windows: this version has been checked on macOS only; it is expected to work as before on Windows, but has not been re-tested on a real PC yet.
